Every week, like the watershed of Thursdays, the shelves are stocked with the newest of the new and the freshest stories.

There's the fun and excitement in Sonic the Hedgehog and Simpsons Comics. The politics of Ex Machina alongside gruesome horror from the stable of IDW publishing. Deep and wild titles from Oni and Slave Labor, the licensed titles such as Star Wars and Stargate SG-1 and the always offbeat Vertigo offerings.
Of course, if you're looking out for Spider-Man, Batman, Wonder Woman, the X-Men or Superman, you can find them here too.
If you can't make it to the store every week, consider the standing order. Like having a potty trained monkey sitting in the store at the shelf for you, the comics and merchandise you want, waiting for the next time you visit.

Results show standing next to scalier beings will drastically improve the look of your own slightly flaky skin.
Rookie thrown into the deep end asks, "where are my floaties?"
