I am seriously considering opening up a online comic book store.
Thoughts?
To start with I won't be able to afford carrying everything. Obviously I would have to carry the major companies. What Indys would you guys like to see?
If you were to order online what types of things would you like to see. Comics, Prints, Statues, T-Shirts, Specialty Items, etc... I don't expect anyone to order once I have it up. Assuming I don't chicken out! But if anyone was willing to give me feedback, I would appriciate it.
Thanks gang. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hi AsIs,
I'm not a real big comic person, but I've been known to get action figures and I would certainly buy the B5 Graphic novel from you if you were able to get them (when's it coming out anyway?). Possibly even the other new stuff JMS is working on, although the Spiderman doesn't really do it for me.
-
I would need to think about this. I am not likely to shop online, I missed my comic book store last year...
Most comic book stores offer the same stuff, I would think one of the best ways to differentiate yourself would be to sell many indy books. No idea what titles but Oni is an obvious choice. What company puts out Boneyard? Their stuff is pretty good.
-
I think Boneyard is put out by CBM. I will be featuring several indies online. To start I will do the more popular and well known comics. Oni, Slave Labor Graphics and Crossgen are three that I will definately carry. Plus others that appear popular or that I develop relationships with.
As time goes on, I will add any titles people request.
-
Hi Asis! Well, I dont usually buy comics either, But if you start selling the JMS stuff, like Spider Man and Midnight Nation...etc...I would be intersted. As others have indicatied, perhaps some action figures. Hmmm
-
I'll definately stock JMS graphic novels (comics in thier collected form) while they are available, which should be for some time.
I'll also be carrying action figures and statues that are solicted by Previews, the comics distributor. As time goes on and I see what sells, I will branch out in those directions. Basically if you see something, you can reserve it and when it comes out we will ship it.

Comic Store is now online!
Comic Fusion Comic Shop

Wow, AsIs, the site looks great, Kudos.
-
I'll check on that Nommy. I don't think it will be a problem.
-
Hey Babe! Are you stocking "Supreme Power #1" ?????
-
Actually, I took a look and you Supreme Power #3, but can yo get #'s 1 & 2?
-
Cool! That would be my first purchase. Is there a PATD discount.
-
Yes, there is a PATD discount! Duh!
But shipping will cost more than the book! [img]wink.gif[/img]
Nommy, have you read Midnight Nation? If not, I can get the graphic novel for you. It is a great story by JMS. He has also done a few graphic novels for Rising Stars and Spiderman. His first arc of Spiderman ROCKED!
If you are interested in any of them, you get discounts on them as well and the shipping won't eat you up. I'll have those books up for you to look at in a day or two.
I picked up Supreme 1 and Number 2 comes out next week I think. I'll update you on those.
-
Thanks Asis! Yes, I am very intersted in Midnight Nation. Thanks. Rising Stars also.
-
We have added September issues to the site.
We also have added Midnight Nation, Rising Stars and Spiderman in Graphic Novels and some other JMS stuff.
P.S. Nommy, check your messages here.

Hey Azziz, how goes the comic store? Keep updated please
-
I've tried looking for the JMS Graphic novels, but haven't found them. What's the drill down path for them?
-
If you do a search on STRACZYNSKI, you will find all his books [img]smile.gif[/img]
The site is going fine, we are steadily building business. We'd like more, but we are building...
