Happy Monday Everyone!

Well, just in case you live in a cave, SAN DIEGO COMIC-CON 2013 badges went on sale Saturday and SOLD OUT IN LESS THAN 2 HOURS...AGAIN!! Kudos if you were able to get a pass.

I for one was subject to the "digital waiting room" and was denied...again for the second straight year. If you thought that comic retailers and/or professionals would have their own registration...
you are WRONG. We don't get preferential treatment.



Until a few years ago, Diamond Distributors used to handle this for us, but Comic-Con got TOO BIG and now we wait in line (digitally) with everyone else.

Maybe I'll get lucky & smart like last year and split a booth or something...I'll keep you posted.

Anyways, I have other things to worry about on a daily basis like running a cool comic shop, planning amazing events and making sure that our Family's shop is the "GOLD" standard for the Industry.

Speaking of events, YOU ARE INVITED TO A PARTY!
On Wednesday, March 6th we are hosting an IMAGE COMICS CREATOR (WINE) MIXER at 7pm. Meet & mingle with some of today's newest comic creators of the coolest new Image Comics like: Great Pacific, I Love Trouble & Blackacre. Since we are in LA, we will invite tons more people and I'm sure we'll see some others. Keep checking Twitter (@GAppleComics) and Facebook for guest updates. Wine will be served...Yay!

Until next week, stay classy Los Angeles & we can't wait to see ya on Wednesday!

Next Week at Golden Apple!

You may have noticed the back counter at Golden Apple comics has been growing with leaps and bounds. Back Issues are back in a big way! Each week we are bringing in high end books to fill the gaps in your Silver Age collection. There is also an ever growing selection of more common titles priced to move underneath our new comic racks. We have full runs of Defenders, Spider-Woman and many more Bronze Age gems.
We're not here to talk bulk though, this week we are taking a closer look at two KEY SILVER AGE books we're proud to showcase. Batman #171 and #189, respectively the first Silver Age appearances of The Riddler and The Scarecrow!
#171 is the "Remarkable Ruse of The Riddler!" written by Gardner Fox with pencils by Sheldon Moldoff, this book sports one of the great Infantino/Anderson covers of Batman and Robin assaulting The Riddler with such force and intensity, he spins like a top.
 
#189 is also a Silver Age milestone; it's the first appearance of Scarecrow since Detective Comics #43, in 1943. An amazing Infantino cover graces the book, with the sinister Professor Crane dangling an unconscious Batman over a cliff, while crows circle him. Which raises the question, if he's a scarecrow, why are actual Crows always following him? Shouldn't they be... scared?
Both books are appropriately graded and priced reasonably. These are key issues, books that will shine in your collection, so stop into Golden Apple and take a look for yourself!  @TheJoeSlepski
