Did you see the sign on the door? No, it wasn't the "Going Out of Business" sign we were all hoping for. The sign said "WE HAVE MAGIC CARDS" What does that mean exactly? I didn't realize Magic Cards were in such high demand these days from comic stores that you needed a sign to advertise that you had them in stock. Anyway, CJ Comics has Magic Cards in stock now... or do they?
Do you remember that bookshelf filled with binders that comprised of Magic Cards? Sleeves and sleeves filled with magic cards, and that's just what they have. Oh, and they also have a basket filled with magic cards which looks like to be a pile commons and lands. This is their Magic Card stock. This is what that nice little sign is so proudly telling customers, they have Magic Cards.
Magic Cards wasn't the only new edition, there were back issue boxes in the back. What threw me off was that a lot of them were boarded and bagged unlike MC which had them in bags only. Finally, the back issues that we were promised from Captain Jackass. Funny thing though, as I looked through the boxes I started to see a pattern. They weren't really back issues. Many of the books were books from 6 months ago, sometimes even less. But the funniest thing about the back issues was this, they looked like the same books from MC's back issue supply. I even think some of those books were books that I've sold to MC, in fact I'm sure of it.
That's about it, nothing really new and exciting than that. Place still looks like a dump, their toy selection is worse than sub par, it's like looking it a child's toy box of toys bought at the gas station or local drugstore.
hmmm, I wonder if they'll buy my Malibu an 90s Liefeld Image books. I'll tell them they're from the Silver Age.
