Better late than never, here’s the staff favorites from the year. Matt and Varun are familiar faces to anyone who shops in our brick and mortar store on the storied Ash Ave. They both provide a wealth of knowledge and assistance to shoppers, whether a customers is browsing for the first time and needs a recommendation, or for the longtime reader who is looking for a real deep cut of a read to take them off of the beaten path. Paul holds down our webstore and shipping, making sure that all of our customers around the country get their books shipped out in top form. And I’m Drew, the owner of the shop for the last 21 years, and while it seems that I am always working on 20 different tasks, I still make time to read a stack of comics every week. My favorite for the year? Greg and Fake’s Santos Sisters, a top notch bizarro humor title from Floating World that draws on an Archie Comics artistic tradition to sneak through some wild subversion.
Here’s to another year of good comics reading in 2024.
See you in the shop!
