Hub Comics

Last week, we mailed everyone to tell you about our big July 4th sale. However, we mistakenly said it was on through Friday. (It actually ended Sunday.)

That was oops number one.

Oops #2 is our delayed new comics this week. I'm especially hurting because I am really, really looking forward to DC's Wednesday Comics, which includes Union Square neighbor Joe Quinones' work on the Green Lantern page.

If you haven't guessed, "our new comics are late" is code for "our cash flow is constricted." This sort of thing is also helped with a BIG SALE!

So, we're starting the "Oops-We-Screwed-Up Sale" tomorrow, Friday, 10 July. It will run through Monday, 13 July, at which time we will have the new comics from this past week.

The big sale is thus:

BACK ISSUE COMICS 50% OFF!
Loose comics (floppies, monthlies, you know, the boxed back issues) and magazines are half off. (Excepting “wall books," of course. Come see the only blonde Superman appearance, from 1939!) Comics in the 50% off box are now 75% off!

TOYS 25% OFF!

Hub Comics will be celebrating Free Comic Book Day 2009 in style. Stay tuned to the site to find out more!

From Mental Floss -- a great magazine -- comes a list of five comic characters who made a difference in the real world.

It's a great (and fairly short) read -- take a look!
