To help with the waiting...
Due to overwhelming demand for tomorrow's Justice League Day & Local Comic Shop Day events, we've made a few adjustments to help make your day better.
- Jim Lee & Dan DiDio Signing at the Clear Lake, Washington, & Westheimer stores: Numbered wristbands will be handed out beginning at 8:00 AM. You may then leave and come back two hours before the signing and line back up outside of the store. This line will not be allowed in the store until 30 minutes prior to the signing. Please note that obtaining a wristband does not guarantee you a signature. Our guests are on a strict schedule. Please remember we have a two signature limit and based on attendance may reduce it to one signature at anytime. Please do not bring any bulky items that will hold up the line for signing.
- Justice League #1 #HoustonStrong Variants: Each of our five area Bedrock City locations received a very limited amount of comics. We will begin to hand them out at 10:00 AM when the stores open while supplies last. One per person or family. Again, there were only 1,000 copies printed and they have been divided up between 14 area Houston comic shops. Ours have all been pre-signed by Geoff Johns and Jim Lee.
- The Justice League #1 Standard Cover will be handed out beginning at 10:00 AM one per person, You may not have a copy of both the Standard and the variant cover.
- Local Comic Shop Day: Each of our five stores have received different, limited and unique Local Comic Shop Day items. These items will be sold on a "First Come, First Served" basis beginning at 10:00 AM at all Bedrock City Comic stores.
