APES & STORES

LegalDispatch 0.82

Howdy.

Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate.

Because of the holiday, I’m doing a short edition this week…

BEWARE THE PLANET OF THE APES

I’m in the midst of writing the fourth and final script for Beware the Planet of the Apes. The first issue doesn’t drop until next year (1.3.24, to be precise), but Marvel.com has released an unlettered preview of a few of the pages drawn by Àlvaro López and colored by Alex Guirmares. You can check them out below.

MORE COMIC BOOK STORES

Last week’s newsletter about how to buy comics got a nice amount of engagement and several of you were kind enough to recommend your favorite stores in the comments.

Here’s a list of those stores recommended by your fellow subscribers (in alphabetical order):

• A SHOP CALLED QUEST — Two locations: 101 N Indian Hill Blvd, Claremont, CA 91711 and 5 Citrus Ave, Redlands, CA 92373

• FUNNY BUSINESS COMICS — 896 N Garey Ave, Pomona, CA 91767

• LEGACY COMICS AND CARDS — 123 W Wilson Ave, Glendale, CA 91203

• PULP FICTION COMICS — 4328 Sepulveda Blvd, Culver City, CA 90230

• HOUSE OF SECRETS (I actually don’t know how I left this one out) — 1930 W Olive Ave, Burbank, CA 91506

• 4 COLOR FANTASIES — 8045 Archibald Ave #120, Rancho Cucamonga, CA 91701

Just a reminder that when you frequent one of these stores — or any of their ilk — you’re supporting local small business in that store’s community and, generally, doing a mitzvah.

Be good to each other.

Best,

Marc
