New Wednesday Cadence
Greetings from the multiverse. Our timelines have merged and the newsletter has shifted to a weekly cadence! We’ll be sending out slightly shorter versions each week on Wednesdays.
The new cadence should make it a bit easier to plan your weekend while still looking ahead at larger upcoming events! Let me know if you have any feedback on this 😄

Ultimate Comics is back with their pop up sale. Here’s a weekend event where you can get some serious deals on graphic novels, figures and Funko’s, and all kinds of other things!
This is in the Cary Crossroads area next to their old Cary location (though the address is technically Raleigh).

Ultimate Comics keeps most of their activity on Facebook, so follow the event page for the most up-to-date details.
Here’s a reel from Alan with more info!
