(We have Ramune and new flavors of Pocky back in the store!)) 

We're getting new stuff in all the time, and this is the place to see what it is. Every Monday, we post our list of New Comics that we're expecting. We don't always get new gaming in on the same day, so we post those new arrivals as we get them. We'll also try to let folks know when we get any sizeable influx of out of print games or older comics & graphic novels.

New Comics

We receive new comics every Wednesday, barring Holidays, and restocks throughout the week. This list is  subject to change due to shipping problems, distributor packing errors, and other generally unforeseen circumstances.

We receive reships of graphic novels and comics weekly. Please inquire about older/in-stock titles, or check our eBay store for some great back issue runs and sets.

This list is for comics arriving/arrived Wednesday, May 14, 2008
