LOCAL NEWS - Free Comic Book Day News!

Howdy!

It has been a crazy couple of weeks for us here at Mile High Comics, as we have been shutting down our 56th Ave. headquarters building, and merging our online operations that had been located there into our Jason St. Mega-Store. We owned the 56th Ave. building for 29 years, so our accumulation of merchandise and fixtures stored in that 22,000 square foot building exceeded one million lbs! Suffice it to say, after loading and then personally driving our rented 26' box truck to Jason St. over 100 times in four weeks, I am totally worn out. We are now completely moved, however, so it was well worth the effort.


Empty 56th

Now that our move is complete, our next big challenge is to prepare for this year's May 7th Free Comic Book Day event. Despite our being preoccupied with moving, we still ordered over 30,000 copies of this year's 50 FCBD issues for our stores to give away. We are, however, scaling back on our hours a little bit this year. For starters, we just do not have the manpower available this year to host a midnight pre-release party, so we will need to defer that fun event to next year. Our Glendale (Colorado Blvd.) store will still be opening at 8 AM on May 7th, however, while Lakewood and Jason St. will open that day at 9 AM. I highly encourage you to show up early that day, as parking will be tight (especially at Glendale) and our supplies on a few of the more eclectic FCBD issues are slim.

As regards our operating plan, it is basically the same as last year:

1) Everyone visiting one of our stores on May 7th will automatically receive 3 tickets which they can use to select their choice of any of this year's FCBD editions. You can receive free tickets at each of our stores.

2) Empress 43 Norrie Reynolds, and a team of Imperial Court members, will then be offering additional FCBD tickets at Jason St. in exchange for $1 donations. All of the money generated from these donations will go to the White Rose Scholarship Fund, which helps low income students remain in college. We raised over $8,000 for six deserving students at Mile High Comics through White Rose during last year's Reign 42! If you really want to help this cause, a $40 donation to White Rose will earn you a COMPLETE SET! of all 50 of the standard FCBD editions, plus a copy of our exclusive Mile High Comics DC SUPERHERO GIRLS variant edition.


GRUMPY CAT FREE COMIC BOOK DAY

3) Another way to qualify for more FCBD tickets is by purchasing items through our stores over this next week, starting today. For every $10 you spend with us, you will receive another FCBD ticket. This offer will also be in effect on May 7th, so if you want to take advantage of our great specials that day, you will also receive FCBD tickets on purchases that you make on FCBD. Here are our in-store discounts for May 7th:

All Back Issue Comics - 50% Off!
All Trade Paperbacks, and Comics Hardbacks - 40% Off!
All T-Shirts and Apparel - 40% Off!
All Toys and Action Figures - 40% Off
All Statues and Bisques - 40% Off!


SUICIDE SQUAD FREE COMIC BOOK DAY

My final bit of news for FCBD is that we will have a special team in place in the back of Jason St. specifically tasked with searching our mail order inventory for special requests from our store visitors. If you have ever seen something offered for sale on our website and wished that you could just buy it on the spot, next Saturday will provide you with a golden opportunity. Bring your want list of comics that we offer on our website, and we'll pull them for you while you wait! At the end of the day, this is the single most important benefit to you of our having merged our online operations into Jason St.

Happy Collecting!
