As part of our 10th Anniversary festivities, we are proudly launching our brand-new “Store of the Month” initiative, celebrating a different retail partner each month in 2024, and beyond!
This initiative not only recognizes the vital role that retailers play in the comic community but also provides an opportunity for fans to engage with their favorite artists and writers in a local setting.
For the debut month of this new undertaking, we are honored to spotlight the exceptional efforts of Bat City Comic Professionals in Bradenton, Florida.
We have a busy month of festivities ahead, with a schedule full of signings and creator live-streams all April long! Check out our full lineup below!
