Hello from inside Vortex Books & Comics. We’ve got an exciting weekend planned to help you escape the heat.
Currently, all DVDs are just $1.99 — regardless of what the price sticker says. That’s right. You pay just $1.99 per DVD. This sale excludes boxed sets, multi-disc editions, Blu-Rays, and VHS tapes. This deal runs throughout the month of July.
This weekend — Friday July 11 through Sunday July 13 — we’re having a Superman sale, with 20% off ALL SUPERMAN MERCHANDISE. All comics, both old and new. All graphic novels. All novels. All DVDs (and yes, that’s in conjunction with the DVD sale). If it’s Superman, it’s 20% off the purchase price at checkout.
And on Saturday, from 1pm to 2pm, we’ll be joined by 11 students from Wrightsville Elementary School for the release of their collective scary book — WE CAN ALL WRITE! (INCUDING YOU). All of the kids will be on hand to sign the book, and we’ll have copies for sale here at the store.
Indie horror author and single dad Kristopher Rufty has learned that he and his daughter have to move out of their rental home in less than a month, due to the landlord selling the property. This means they need to come up with first and last months rent, security deposit, and enough money for a U-Haul truck and boxes, all within a couple of weeks. Author Candace Nola has started a GoFundMe to help with this effort. If you have the means, please consider donating $5 or $10.
