Alan and I were up at 4 am today! Why in the world would two night owls (namely Alan and Marsha), get up so early? Our local NBC affiliate, channel 12 came out to do a live feed at the store for their 5:30 AM news slot. Why did channel 12 come out, you ask? To discuss tonight’s big Marvel 70th Anniversary Bash at All About of course!
If you want to see the news clip you can access it HERE (just click on the video titled comic anniversary on the right side of the page). There is a follow up interview with me as well on the channel 12 news at 12 and again at 6. All this to help promote tonight’s big event.
Marvel’s 70th Anniversary Party, 6 PM – 10 PM tonight! Get first dibs on Marvel Comics Anniversary edition and Marvel Projects #1 as well as the variants (only available at the Marvel Party). 15% off all Marvel merchandise (new and back issue comics, toys, posters, t-shirts, statues etc), and 25% to 50% off some featured Marvel Merchandise. Marvel special issues go on sale at 9 PM (Marvel’s selected street sale time) but the discounts are good from 6 to 10 PM!
And that’s not all. This week is a huge week for new comics shipping Wed.
