SAT, 3/1 THOUSANDS of Premium $1 Comic Books at Great Escape Charlotte Ave

Don't forget-

There wll be a gigantic $1 Comics Book Blowout Sale at The Great Escape's Charlotte Avenue Superstore this Saturday, 3/1 (from 10 a.m. - 9 p.m.).

But here's an important update: as it turns out, this sale will be even better than we originally expected- since, while getting ready for it, we recently decided to add lots of titles that are already bagged and boarded (making these $1 titles even bigger bargains)- and many older comic books (going back as far as the bronze age!). In fact, this will be the best $1 comic book blowout sale that we've had in years- if not ever!

Of course (as we said before) many of these premium $1 comics (regularly priced between $2.99 - $9.99 each) are in like-new, unread condition- and many have never been offered for sale before (having been pulled from our back issue comics backup stock).

Fresh stock will be added regularly during sale hours- so you might want to make sure to both get here early- and come back often- during the eleven hours that you'll have to shop in dozens of boxes of these amazing bargains.

This is a happening that you won't want to miss, if you're either a comic book collector and/or reader!

$1 Comic Book Blowout Sale is at The Great Escape's Charlotte Ave. location only this SAT, 3/1.

Also, don't forget about the special in-store graphic novel signing that takes place at The Great Escape Charlotte Avenue Superstore on WED, 3/5 with "Intergalactic Nemesis" writer Jason Neulander- who will be signing both "Book One: Target Earth" and "Book Two: Robot Planet Rising" from 4:30 - 6:00 p.m. For this event only, we'll be offering both of these titles for 25% off cover price- at only 14.99 each! ("Intergalactic Nemesis" is both a "regular", hard copy graphic novel and a "live action" graphic novel; the latter is currently touring the world, and has previously been seen on The Conan O'Brien show in 2013. "Raiders of the Lost Ark", "Star Wars" and pulp serials of the 1930s inspire this colorful adventure about a no-nonsense reporter and her cohorts struggling to save Earth from the threat of an alien invasion.)

Hey, folks-

We've been having a great time in 2014 seeing you at all the special events that we've been hosting- and we wanted to thank you for helping us start out the year right!

Now, here's another one: The Great Escape's Charlotte Avenue Superstore will be hosting a $1 Comic Book Blowout Sale this SAT, 3/1 from 10 a.m. - 9 p.m. (regular hours).

We'll be packing our special events room with 1,000s & 1,000s of premium $1 back issue comics (regularly priced between $2.99 - $9.99 each)- many of which have never been offered for sale before (having been pulled from our comics backup)- and many are also in like-new, unread condition!

Since our sale will be happening during the entire time that we're open Saturday, you'll have a full 11 hours to shop in dozens & dozens of boxes of premium $1 titles. (With all these great titles marked at the ridiculously low price of only $1 each, this will be a great opportunity for readers and collectors alike to either fill holes in their collection at this super-bargain discount- or try some new titles that they've never read before!)

Come early! Come often! Fresh stock will be added regularly during sale hours.

Come join us for this great event!

__________________________________________
Also, for comic book fans: on Wednesday, 3/5, we'll be having a special graphic novel signing at The Great Escape Charlotte Avenue with writer Jason Neulander- whose "Intergalactic Nemesis" is both a "regular", hard copy graphic novel and a "live action" graphic novel; the latter consists of more than 1,250 original, hand-drawn comic book images that are projected onto a screen in a theatre, while three actors voice dozens of characters, a sound man creates hundreds of live sound effects, and a pianist accents every move with an original score in this tale of a no-nonsense reporter and her cohorts struggling to save Earth from the threat of an alien invasion. (Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Wars and pulp serials of the 1930s inspire this colorful adventure, which is currently touring the world- and has been featured on the Conan O'Brien show, in 2013.)

Signing takes place at 4:30 p.m. on WED, 3/5 at The Great Escape Charlotte Avenue.
