About Our Shop

Favorite Recent Comic Book: The Fix

What has been your best promotion or event?  Free Comic Book Day

What recent changes have you made in the store?  Painted the front/new lighting

What steps have you taken to expand your customer base or to reach out to individuals unfamiliar with your store or comics in general?  More work on Facebook for store

What are your plans for the near future?  To stay open, and be positive

How did you choose your store name?  I wanted masked wrestlers to have a place to go.  And it sounds kind of comicbooky.

What superpower would you most like to have?  To change any comic book into another better-selling comic book.  Or classic comic book.
