WildPig Comics Grand Reopening Fall Sale! Sept. 15 and 16! The Return to Kenilworth, NJ!

wildpigcomics

The all new, all different WildPig Comics! Yup, we're returning to the hallowed halls of our longstanding Kenilworth location, but, in keeping with the times, this new version of the store will be radically different in many ways (one tantalizing example: we've knocked down a wall to dramatically expand the retail space!). What will never change is our dedication to customer service and unbeatable deals. Hence, it's only fitting that we launch this new era with a fall sale! Here's the skinny:

WHEN: Sat., Sept. 15th, noon to 10 PM, and Sun., Sept. 16th, 10 AM to 5 PM

WHERE: 14 S. Michigan Ave. in Kenilworth, NJ

THE SALE: 60,000 50 cent books from the Silver Age to the present, 2,000 trades at 50% off (including new releases!), 50% off comic and comic-related magazines, and 20% off superhero-related merchandise.

THE RAFFLE: A WildPig event would not be complete without our legendary raffle! The raffle will take place at approximately 3:00 PM on Sat.! Stay tuned for further details, as well as a list of raffle items!

ARTISTS: J.K. Woodward will be appearing on Sat. beginning at noon! Our very own Bill Ellis of allnewissuescomic.com will also be appearing on Sat.! Stay tuned as we're in the process of recruiting more artists to the cause!

Per tradition, identify yourself as a CGS listener during checkout and receive an additional $5 off your final purchase!

Upon the conclusion of the sale, our store will formally open for regular business on Wed., Sept. 26! Stay tuned for further details regarding our new, daily incentive and discount offers!

Please visit www.wildpigcomics.com for further details and directions. We'll be posting additional info regarding artists, the raffle, etc. both here and on our website.

As always, thanks to the CGS community for your support!

Best,
Chris, Danielle, Ryan, and the WildPig Gang

This is great news!
The only thing not-so-great about is that it is the same weekend as SPX, so I'll miss this one.
Hope to make the next one.
Best of luck!

I plan on being there, representing Austin, TX once again!

Chris,

Do you have in your possession (and available for sale) a copy of the Spider-Man volume 1 omnibus, as discussed on the first spider-man spotlight? As you know, it is currently out of print and I'm trying to find a retailer who will sell me a copy of this work.

By the way, you should be a PERMANENT member of CGS - your thoughtful analysis and cadence is outstanding.


Many thanks for your time. (an old James Bond quote)

wildpigcomics

Bones, many thanks for the kind words! Alas, I only have a copy in my personal library. Frankly, I'm surprised Marvel kept it out of print what with the release of the new film. As an alternative, I recommend soft cover versions of the Marvel Masterworks series, as they're significantly cheaper than the hardcovers.

Best,
Chris, WP

All right, y'all, I'm officially in. I just reserved a room at the Kenilworth Inn (two double beds), and I'm looking for a roommate for Friday and Saturday night. If you're interested, please message me.

SUNDAY BONUS RAFFLE! Yup, we've decided to add a second raffle for Sunday, Sept. 16th. Each customer through the door will receive a free ticket on Sunday (includes customers who visited us on Sat.). You may then purchase additional raffle tickets (no limit). Raffle prizes for Sunday will be on display on Sat., so feel free to place your tickets early. Here are the Sunday raffle we've selected items thus far:

-75 Years of DC Comics (yup, the Paul Levitz tome that comes in its own carrying case)
-Bone One Volume (in color) 20th Anniversary Slipcase edition
-X-Men Age of Apocalypse Omnibus

Stay tuned, as we hope to post some additional items within the next two weeks!

Sat. raffle note: the G.I. Joe deluxe edition hardcover will not be available by Sept. 15th, so we've called in a substitute: Jack Kirby's Hunger Dogs, the original DC Graphic Novel from the '80s!

Remember, identify yourself as a CGS listener during checkout, and receive an additional $5 off your purchase. Thanks for your support!

Best,
Chris, Danielle, Ryan & the WildPig Crew
