Merry Christmas Comic Shop Friends! We closed up shop at 5pm on Tuesday, Christmas Eve and remained closed on Wednesday, the 25th for a little holiday and Christmas cheer. This week, new comic book day is moved to Thursday the 26th. Our fan-favorite Facebook live video Christmas Eve Late afternoon so you can go check it and get a look at the new table. We’ll check comments and upload the YouTube video on the 26th. I hope you all got to enjoy a relaxing holiday! The big thing this week is that we crushed last year’s donation total to the Cleveland Food Bank! Thanks to all of you who donated artwork, and all of you who bought raffle tickets, we were able to give them $8717! That creates 26,151 meals! An extra thank you goes out to the large donations from Kamm’s Plaza management, and the crew at NEO-TAC, the North East Ohio Toy and Collectible Club! 50% off back issues will run through the end of the year! Use those gift certificates you got at Christmas to fill in...

We’re counting down to Christmas, Comic Shop Friends! We’re counting down to our Holiday events too! The art show is being put together as I write this, and starting Wednesday the 18th, you’ll be able to stop in to check it all out! And start filling those bags with your raffle tickets! We beat our record number of submissions this year, with over 150 covers! We have so many we’ll have two binders full of covers, along with the display wall, full of amazing art, so you’d better check those out too! Extra thanks to Mark Overlow and his art students at Ashland County West Holmes Career Center, https://www.acwhcc.org/ They submitted an excellent batch of covers this year! Like every year, we do a basket raffle for the covers, which means each cover is labeled with a number and has a corresponding bag with that number. You throw your tickets in the bags for the covers you’d like to try to win, and we pull the winners at the Holiday Party on the 21st. (You do not need to be...

Here’s all the information on this year’s Holiday Party – Art Show – Charity Fund Raiser for the Greater Cleveland Food Bank! The theme of this year’s art show is “Homage to a Classic Comic Book Cover!” Let’s dig into the Art Show first! We’ve been hosting out Holiday Art Show since 2012, even moving in temporarily online during the pandemic. We consider it to be one of the most important things we do every year, in great part because we couldn’t do it without you and the help we get from our artistic community. Since its inception, we’ve assisted the Greater Cleveland Food Bank in creating over 159,000 meals for those in need during the holidays and beyond. (159,000!!!) The Food Bank has the uncanny ability to turn one dollar into three full meals. Every dollar you put into the system in the art show has a very direct result you can measure and be a part of. Our art show is where local artists (and quite a few from a distance) create custom comic book covers that we...
