Ssalefish GSO First Look #174 for 9.2.20

While this picture of a storage unit may not look like much right now, just know that everything that was removed from it will be well-worth the trip Jay made to Atlanta to pick it up! With our new warehouse manager Xylon riding shotgun, they loaded up over 100 long boxes of new comics that will have to be sorted, processed and doled out into a variety of socially-distanced and sanitary events we’re putting together for the fall! It was more than we could even carry in the Ssalefish van, we had to rent a box truck!
