Comic Books Comic Book Sales! Everywhere! Now!
Posted by Alison Hallett on Wed, Nov 24, 2010 at 2:26 PM
Is "Black Wednesday" actually a thing? A few local comic book stores have decided it is—Floating World and Cosmic Monkey didn't get their regular Wednesday comics shipments in, so to keep the furious nerds at bay (note: I PARAPHRASE) they're starting their Black Friday sales a few days early:
Cosmic Monkey:"Black Wednesday through Sunday sale," 50% off back issues, 25% off most everything else
Floating World: "Black Wednesday & Friday sale": 20% off everything; 50% off some stuff including all used sets.
Bridge City and Things from Another World are having Black Friday sales too:
On Friday morning, Bridge City Comics has ensured themselves crowd of sleepy, flatulent, and hungover customers (...), with staggered discounts starting earlyish:
10am - 11am: 40% off everything
11am - 12pm: 35% off everything
12pm - 1pm: 30% off everything
1pm - 2pm: 25% off everything
2pm - 3pm: 20% off everything
3pm - 8pm: 10% off everything
And TFAW is holding instore sales on Fri-Sun (buy 3 get 1 free graphic novels, loads of stuff at 50% off) plus online discounts through Monday, including 60% off their already cheap-as-hell nick and dent stock—read more about that here.
