TL/DR at your own risk...
Got that wait-and-see mentality?
Figure you’ll just grab it from the New Comics wall on Wednesday?
I see you. I get it, too.
There’s just so dang many comics and covers and gimmicks to choose from these days, it’s easy to wait until Wednesday and see if a title looks good.
Why that’s a problem:
Because there’s a ton of upcoming, major publisher events (each with dozens of covers to choose from, each with tie-ins galore) we can’t have every comic that every person may want unless it’s been pre-ordered, and you can do that each week via the FOC.
The FOC—Final Order Cutoff—is the free and easy weekly way to pre-order upcoming comics and covers you’ll want.
Want 25 Batman blind bags? Want the C cover for X-Men?
Pre-order them and they’re yours.
The link in our bio will take you to the Final Order Cutoff, open Fridays at Noon until Sundays at Noon.
If you’re viewing this on Facebook, the link at the bottom of the post will get you there.
Upcoming, massive events like X-Men Age of Revelation, DC K.O., and the hot Marvel/DC crossovers will have literally hundreds of covers making pre-ordering a challenge.
Each series with its foils, variants, or blind bags makes prognostication extra rough.
Put simply, boldly:
I’M NOT GOING BROKE PRE-ORDERING COMICS BLINDLY, HOPING THEY SELL! YOU MUST PRE-ORDER TO GUARANTEE TITLES AND COVER SELECTIONS!! NO EXTRA WALL COPIES OF MANY COVERS WILL BE AVAILABLE!
(Whew, that felt good)
Check the FOC each week—noon friday to noon sunday—and get those pre-orders in. You can always hand back a title or cover you changed your mind on, but asking for the title or cover post-FOC means a great chance of us not being able to get it for you.
It’s our goal to make every customer a happy customer, getting you the comics you want. This is the best way we know how.
