Once again this tough economy has many people selling off their collections. This is creating an amazing inventory for All About Books & Comics and some great finds. The latest collection we just received includes many gems, most notably Tales of Suspense #39, the first appearance of Iron Man! We have had this book in the store only FIVE times in our 28 years. Though graded a strict VG+ 4.5, it appears nicer. Flat with great color luster! A truly key book! This and the many of the other goodies in this collection have been graded, priced and put out for sale in the main glass case by the parking lot side door.

Up next is another collection that Alan is still sorting, grading and pricing and will have out in the next couple of weeks.
Meanwhile while the stock keeps being added to the store we need to start moving some more to make room. Our Kryptonite Wall near the Central side desk featuring the Superman cape and Silver and some Bronze Superman titles (Superman, Action, Adventure, Jimmy Olsen, Lois Lane, & World’s Finest) is now BUY 3 GET 1 FREE! Check out the great selection and special offer!
In addition to that store wide offer here are two Blog deals of the week. Tomorrow, Wed. 9/16 is 33 years to the date that Alan and I went on our first date! No, it wasn’t in a comic book store:) So in our honor, mention our anniversary or the blog and get one of these two great deals!
First, the JLA overstock has finally been completely put out on the cover price shelves. For this week only, buy as many of these books as you want for 50 cents each. Buy 20 or more and get them for ONLY 33 CENTS EACH!
Secondly, our Spider-man boxes are too full! Buy any Spider-man comic from the boxes on the display floor and get 33% OFF! This does not include any in the glass cases, the walls or from the back room and is strictly from the boxes on the display floor in both the regular section and the silver/bronze section.
As usual these blog specials are good from Wed. 9/16 thru Tues. 9/22!
