VELOCITY COMICS NEWSLETTER 5/23/2010

Hello, all…

FIRST things first I'd like to wish TOM BATTEN a Happy Birthday today! And the lucky dog gets the bestest birthday prezzie anyone could ever ask for, the series finale of LOST! All other birthdays are now pretty insecure. Hope it's a great one, pal!

NOW onto some other pertinents: you may have heard the rumblings on the street, and I can now confirm: VELOCITY COMICS is indeed partnering with GALLERY 5 in their upstairs shop! As a fan of Gallery 5 since its creation, I am excited to see what develops. Hopefully their property value will not plummet with our presence. Announcements soon about how cool this all is!

ADDITIONALLY: did you see that tonight is the final new episode of LOST, like, ever?!? How will you cope with that? I ask because I'm looking for ideas myself.

ONE MORE THING: VCU sub boxes: if you have not told us what to do with your box for the summer, YOU MUST TELL US ASAP! If you leave it as is you will be responsible for what's in there or the box will be dumped! Please be proactive and let us know what's up!

SHIPPING on WEDNESDAY, MAY 26TH:

7 PSYCHOPATHS #1 3.99 So Sean Phillips is drawing this WW2 tale of a bunch of badasses assigned with killing Hitler? And it came out in Europe before 'Inglorious Basterds' so there's little chance of similarity? Heck, yes! Sign me up!
