Imagine that! Make your comic store awesome, and people will come and shop there a lot! I love the Isotope.

If you find yourself in SF again, we should go to the Isotope, and you should meet James and talk with him.Elveen wrote:This thought keeps running through my head.Dr. Solar wrote: Imagine that! Make your comic store awesome, and people will come and shop there a lot! I love the Isotope.

Hey, that's my shop. Good people there.bygranddesign wrote:My LCS, Superhero Beach @ Jacksonville Beach, allowed you 3 FCBD comics - so I got Valiant 2013, Valiant Masters and got TWD. They were also offering $1 back issues so I picked up some Harbinger and Bloodshot issues that I was missing. Also got the one dollar debut - bundle pack!

I would love to meet that guy you can tell how awesome he is even just from a photo. Sounds like he runs Isotope very similar to how my LCS owner Cal runs Strange Adventures.Dr. Solar wrote: James is the man, he takes care of folks well.
speaking of James last year I asked him on twitter if he wears a suit everywhere he goes, this was his response:

My FCBD experience: Drove 10 minutes to local comic shop, went inside to wait with at least 3 dozen other people for some freebies, and left after 5 minutes of waiting in line due to the smell and over-crowding.
I just couldn't take it. But, I am happy to see people still love comics and that FCBD seems to be working.
