New Comic Shelving Question

As I have been adding the new shelves to the end of the alphabet, I have just been doing it in 4 foot sections (the length of the shelf). In that area, it goes top to bottom alphabetically and then continues over section over to the right. This has been done mostly because I am […]

2010 Best Sellers

I read Brian Hibbs posts at Comix Experience about 2010 and wanted to compare my numbers.  I really can’t do a fair comparison across all product lines, because I don’t track back issues individually and some card packs go under Cards and some go under Games.  But I will give you my Top 50 Comics […]

Mrs. Pittsburgh Comics was wiped out and fell asleep after Winter Wipeout (Must See TV!), so I read all of this weeks books that I took home.  Here are some quick reviews: Walking Dead #80 – I really don’t think this book really needs to ever be reviewed.  There is rarely a stinker of an […]

So this is the first line on my invoice for next week: DAY EARLY DELIVERY COMPLIANCE FUND (NET) $4.00 Oh, happy day.  What does this mean?  It means that, starting next week, the books will be arriving on TUESDAYS!
