Ssalefish GSO First Look #281 for 9.21.22
It’s hard to say if I’m more excited about the half-cocked idea Greensboro and Concord are executing tomorrow to be up and operational Friday at both stores, or the ad I made this morning to promote it. My favorite part is that I called Colton to ask for a straight-on selfie of him looking surprised, he asked if it could wait until he took a shower, I said no, it would be better right now without telling him what it was for, and I was totally right! You can follow along as we make this fever dream a reality in our Instagram stories!
Very much feast or famine lately when it comes to new releases, 86 titles last week, only 61 this week, 93 coming your way week!

Batman One Bad Day Two-Face #1 - it was a tall order for Tom King & Mitch Gerards to try and live up to Alan Moore & Brian Bolland, and while I won’t say they topped them or even pulled even, but it was a damn good shot.
