Ssalefish GSO First Look #366 for 5.8.24

If you’ve been by the store already this week, it’s impossible to not notice that our landlords chose the worst possible time of the year to escalate their war against any remaining patch of grass in the shopping center, bringing out bulldozers, backhoes, and cement mixers to obliterate the lawn in front of our storefront and Papa John’s to eventually make room for more parking spaces.

But never ones to make our problems your problems, Free Comic Book Day 2024 will continue as planned this Saturday, May the 4th (be with you) from 10 AM - 6 PM despite the mess (and forecast)! Our guests Becka Seashols, Matthew Roberts, Chris Giarrusso, and Brian “Smitty” Smith will be perfectly safe inside with the Dewey’s cake squares, we’ve got our tents to cover the $1 comics and free books on the sidewalk, and the Buy 2 Get 1 FREE sale on graphic novels, toys, and back issues is good inside the store!

See you there!
