Pumped for Infinity War tonight! I won't be in the first show at 7:00 at the AMC Classics Greensboro, because out of me and Jay, one of us has to close and the other has to continue to pass out FREE copies of Infinity Gauntlet #1 and spread the word of Free Comic Book Day to the masses!

This is definitely one of those Marvel movies that feels like an accomplishment as a fan just for staying alive and seeing everything that has lead up to it, like I imagine seeing your kid graduate from high school would be (and seeing every Marvel Universe movie in the theater would only be three years shorter than seeing your kid go kindergarten to senior year).

I wish we had more to show as far as merchandise goes, but we've moved a dozen Thanos Marvel Selects, four Thanos Walmart Marvel Legends, four Infinity Gauntlet banks, three Marvel Legends Infinity Gauntlets, three sets of Infinity War Marvel Legends, and three first appearances of Thanos in the last month! We do still have our display up front packed with graphic novels, though, so stop by and see us to discuss what you saw on your way out!
