Ssalefish GSO First Look #117 for 7.3.19

I would love a coffee table book of Dan Hipp’s Marvel Cinematic Universe pieces, but since he works on Teen Titans Go that probably won’t happen anytime soon, but he does have a variant for Amazing Spider-man #25 coming out, so maybe that isn’t such a crazy idea after all!

Apparently Spider-man Far From Home is just coming out on Tuesday like a normal movie with showtimes starting around that morning, so it’ll be the 3rd MCU film (Dr. Strange & Thor Ragnarok before it) and first Spider-man flick I won’t have seen as soon as possible! The only place showing it Monday night is AMC High Point 8 at 12:01 AM, and I’m way too old to get home after 3 AM and get up again at 7 to process the shipment. I guess I’ll just pop over to the AMC Classic 18 or Sedgefield Crossing mid-afternoon.

I also didn’t realize that this scene from Transformers Lost Light #8 was a thing, but here it is again, just in time for the last week of PRIDE month, and still available at the distributor if you’d like us to order you a copy!

The following titles are scheduled to ship on Wednesday, July 3rd excluding some re-orders and providing nothing changes by the time the final invoice arrives on Monday:

  • Adventure Zone TP vol. 2 - “Murder on the Rockport Unlimited” is the follow-up to “Here There Be Gerblins,” which is one of our best-selling graphic novels over the whole time we’ve been open, right up there with Umbrella Academy vol. 1!

  • Batgirl #36 - Joshua Middleton variant available for cover price!

  • Batman/ Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III #3 - Kevin Eastman variant available for cover price! Still highly impressed by this crossover, especially having Eastman draw Raphael in the original TMNT style within the hybrid universe!

Jenny Frison variant available for cover price!
