D&D Pins

 

Sirius Dice has acquired a license for the 1980s D&D cartoon and is producing a line of pins featuring the characters from the show. The one we received featured Hank the Ranger but I assume they will make pins featuring the entire cast.

Free Comic Book Day Results

 

Free Comic Book Day took place May 3rd. Though traffic was steady here all day, we had no lines waiting to get into the store as we have see in past years, with only two people waiting at the door when we opened. The drizzle and threatened thunderstorms may have accounted for that as well as the drastic drop in costumed customers.  Though the Marvel and DC books were popular as always, I was rather surprised to see the popularity of the Black Mirror book from Twisted Comics as it was the first book of which we ran out. Our figures showed sales up about 20% from 2024 but down the same amount from 2023, with about half the people coming into the store just scooping up the freebies.

Krypto's Golden Biscuit Contest

 Available June 18th

Two lucky comic book fans will win the opportunity to attend the World Premiere of director James Gunn's Superman, taking place in Los Angeles, by discovering "Krypto’s Golden Biscuit" hidden inside the front cover of DC’s facsimile edition reprint of the 1955 comic book Adventure Comics #210 , which will land in local comic book shops starting on June 18! 

Written by Otto Binder and drawn by Curt Swan (including art by Ramona Fradon and George Papp), this iconic comic book features Krypto’s first appearance in comics in the story "The Superdog from Krypton," where a young Clark Kent rediscovers Superboy’s best friend in this heartwarming reunion spanning years of time and light-years of space.
