Why Support Your Local Comic Book Store
If the comic books we know and love are to servive, Then the local comic book store is our Noah and he's build'n an ark baby... Without local comic book stores Ebay and Wal-mart would be our only real source of comic books, Both of these places worship the all mighty dollar and care nothing about the Craft:
Problem
Comic book stores are the bloodline of the comic book industry, without comic book stores there would be no new comics and no indipendent publishers becouse walmart wouldn't carry them becouse they're to risky to the bottom line. If local comic book store were to go belly up who would build, love, and nurish comic books.
Result...
Out goes the independent comic book and artists, unable to survive
Out goes the low performing titles (sorry most image titles, anything by vertigo, sandman, swamp thing and possibly even wonder-woman)
OUT go the action figures for 3rd rate characters, and virtually any comic book that doesn't produce at least 100 variant covers for every single issue
OUT GO COMICS AND THE JOY THEY BRING MILLIONS
