orion7950 · 05-04-2013, 04:54 AM

So, I picked up Graham's last copy of Steam Wars and got:

Superman #1
TWD
Chakra
Sesame Street/Strawberry Shortcake

I'm still interested in getting a copy of Star Wars and The Strangers.

kyleg40 · 05-04-2013, 05:00 AM

Could always stay up till 11 eastern and do midtown

orion7950 · 05-04-2013, 05:45 AM

on second look.. Infinity looks interesting.. I may have to hit up a place or two after all dagnabit.. ah well I need more bags and boards anyway..

BengalsJayhawks · 05-04-2013, 10:08 AM

I was just able to snag from Midtown

The Walking Dead
The Strangers
Star Wars
Spongebob
Sonic

I dont know if they're all gone now or what but I had about 10 seconds before it automatically took me to my cart. I just went ahead and checked out cause I wasnt sure what was going on. So now when you go to the page that had everything for FCBD you dont even have the option to add to your cart.

orion7950 · 05-04-2013, 10:49 AM

I had 2 tabs on Midtown, one with the FCBD page, the other with my cart. Looks like Chakra is the going to be the hot book, it was gone fast. Luckily I was able to get one from another site. Too bad it's not counted against inventory once it's in someone's cart. Somebody came by and swiped my apples before I could get to the checkout stand to pay for them. Six books left, all the Midtown exclusives and 3 others, with 5 minutes left in the first hour.

Cardiac · 05-04-2013, 11:38 AM

anyone have an extra copy of strangers, oz, or killjoys?

kyleg40 · 05-04-2013, 11:40 AM

It looks like I read Graham wrong..You get one comic per order..Limit of 3..so you have to order an item for everyone 1 free one..I guess I got none..lol..

I don't think that's the case. I was able to order just 3 free comics. Had to pay $5 to ship them though.

CAS239 · 05-04-2013, 12:05 PM

^This

I went on graham last night at picked out my 3 and just paid $5 for shipping. Got my confirmation email immediately

IndySportsCards · 05-04-2013, 12:39 PM

Midtown is sold out of almost all comics now

Pacerjones20 · 05-04-2013, 12:44 PM

My Hastings opened at 10 I got there about 11 had tons of everything. Limit 10 and get whatever you want. Got 3 walking dead. Grimm spongebob thanos superman couple others. They also had bagged comics but one get one free

kyleg40 · 05-04-2013, 04:05 PM

I didn't get anything, but my boy had fun at the fishing special for the disabled out here

John91C · 05-04-2013, 05:17 PM

Holy Cow was this the busiest FCBD...there was a line wrapped around the building about 100 people long! Needless to say I barely got extras as the lcbs wouldn't let me! I'll have to sort through everything to see what extra ones I have...

bigboytoys · 05-04-2013, 08:07 PM

It was a busy day for me...tried to pickup for the junkies but there was only a limit of 2 at my LCS then the other one I went to only had a limit of 1 per customer and I just feel a shiver in my spine when I see how they handle the comics.

That's pretty awesome.

I'd love one day to meet Bagley and get him to sign at least one ASM book he did. He's my fave ASM artist ever.

cmixer · 05-07-2013, 09:58 AM

I assumed comic shops could order any FCBD books in any quantity; but am now told some were allocated? True?

First I've ever heard of that happening with FCBD books.

^^^ Everything you just said.

duwal · 05-10-2013, 02:20 AM

Picked up The Walking Dead, Star Wars/Avatar:the Last Airbender, Grimm, and Kellerman/L'Amour sneak peek comic. Plus plenty of comics from the 25 cent bargain bin

ratherunique · 05-10-2013, 10:46 AM

Just noticed my lcs went out of their way to butcher my comics. Should i even bother trying to peel these off?

CxG Voodoo Doll · 05-10-2013, 10:57 AM

I picked up several 1 dollar issues of DeadPool, BloodShot, Wolverine, etc...

Nothing for free as they were gone

It was a fun experience either way!
