Let me start by saying that this was the best back issue sale I have been to since I started working for the Fantasy Shop.  There was a huge crowd waiting for us to open our doors at eleven o'clock.  The crowd reached from the front door of St Charles to Pizza Hut down the strip mall.

We had tons of books for everyone to choose from, the line to check out was super long, but everyone was is great spirits all day.  New friendships were made back in the quarter bins as people helped each other find books to complete their collections.

We had Batman, Batgirl, and Supergirl on hand to meet fans and take pictures.  I didn't take as many pictures of the excitement as I wanted too, but that's the price of being busy helping people find awesome comics! 

If you want to see more pictures from the St Charles sale, swing on over to our Facebook page and check them out! http://www.facebook.com/FantasyShopStCharles

And be sure to check out the other shops' pages as well!  They should all have pictures and/ or reviews of the weekend's events within a few days as well.

That's right folks! Today starts the first 30th Anniversary Back Issue Sale at all 4 locations of The Fantasy Shop! Friday May 6th, Saturday May 7th and Sunday May 8th each store will be selling their regular stock back issues ($9.99 and under) for just 30¢ a piece!

And at the Saint Charles store they'll be pulling out all the warehouse back issues and selling them for 30¢ a piece Friday and Saturday (Not to mention the fact that they'll be open from 11am Friday until Midnight Saturday night [That's right you can shop for back issues for 37 HOURS straight if you want to]). And then on Sunday they'll drop the price to 10¢ a piece on the warehouse stock and open from 9am until they decide to shut the doors!

And if that wasn't enough reason to make it out to the Fantasy Shop this weekend then Tomorrow (Saturday May 7th) is FREE COMIC BOOK DAY! 

So come out, get some super cheap back issues, and enjoy FREE COMIC BOOK DAY!
