A cool bit of trivia regarding this issue. In the movie Zombieland: Double Tap, Columbus (Jesse Eisenberg) reads a copy and comments on how scary but unrealistic it is.
This will be the second year in a row that Local Comic Shop Day® will fall on a Wednesday. According to Executive Director of ComicPro, Marco Davanzo, the event was moved from Saturday to Wednesday because that is the day new comics are traditionally released. The switch saw more stores participating and the goal of this day is to get more fans in the shops for the holidays.
Three items have been announced for Local Comic Shop Day so far, with more to follow.
