Here we are again, another What's Cool Wednesday for you all. We are six days away from Halloween! What are your plans this year? Trick or Treating? Halloween Party to host or attend? Dress up as an evil clown and wander the streets aimlessly? Summon the Slender Man? Or perhaps just stay at home, in the dark, and watch Halloween & Horror Movies? Speaking of Halloween themed movies...one of our favorites around here is the Nightmare Before Christmas, it is the perfect mix of Halloween & Christmas, which makes it perfect for viewing for the entire holiday season! I was lucky enough to catch it on the big screen during the original 1993 release (yes I'm old), being a fan of both Tim Burton & Danny Elfman it was an instant masterpiece in my eyes & ears. Today we have a little something inspired by this film... It is a wonderfully re-imagined version of Sally, an Enesco Figurine from the Couture de Force line. Here we see Sally dressed in a retro french fashion, and ready to hit the town! A beautiful edition just released & we were lucky enough to pick one up for the site! Check her out in the Nightmare Before Christmas section of the shop! Another fun franchise to throw on at Halloween time, would be the Friday the 13th films! This Camp Crystal Lake Killer, has been stalking around the screens since 1980, and his hockey mask (actually introduced in Part 3), has become a Horror Film Icon and a Halloween staple! Being a fan of the original (1978) Halloween Film, I was introduced to the Friday the 13th films by the Scott Bot himself, and became a fan of Jason Voorhees. It was with this fandom in mind, I was able to create the Friday the 13th shadowbox. It proudly displays a blood-splattered hockey mask peeking out of a blood-splattered frame! It is all ready for you to display & creep out your friends! Plus, if you want to take it one step beyond, display it near a blacklight, and it adds that eerie other-worldly glow! There is only one of these horrific art pieces, and any horror fan would love it year around in their collection! Well we hope you enjoy your Halloween, no matter where you end up! We hope it is scary, yet safe! See you next week and remember... Hi! What do you need today for your collection? Comics! What type? Well we have an X-Men vs Wolverine (2009) One-Shot in Very Fine Condition! It is written by the iconic Chris Claremont & includes a classic X-Men story as well! Great Stories, amazing art, & all for one low price! We have two CGC'ed issues of G.I. Joe : A Real American Hero! There is Issue #2 (1982) "Panic At The North Pole" with a 9.4 grade & Issue #3 "The Trojan Gambit" (1982) with a 9.6 grade. Both of these vintage books were written by Larry Hama with covers by Herb Trimpe & Jack Abel + Bob Hall & Al Milgrom. Perfectly preserved, slabbed, graded & ready for your collection! Well, now you know...and knowing is the half the battle. And for this week's GRAND FINALE! We have the CGC Signature Series of Watchmen #7, with a grade of 9.6! That is right folks, autographed by the series artist & collaborator, Dave Gibbons, in the center of the cover! An industry changing title, signed, sealed and ready to be delivered into your collection! In other news, do not forget that November 4, 2016 is the release date of the latest Marvel Movie "Doctor Strange"! Check Out the Trailer! Wow! How time flies! We are back with some new items! We have been trying to keep up with the #inktober, keeping the creative juices flowing!

Thanks for stopping by my friends! Don't forget to read last week's NEWS post for the coupon code... It is OCTOBER! The Spooky Month! Autumn Weather! Creepy Clowns! Roaming Spirits! Candy Beggars! Halloween Fun! Well we are kicking it off here with a Vampire, a Pumpkin King, a Slasher, & a Football Player (???)!!! Well let me explain...we have added a True Blood Collector's Set which contains the viking vampire Eric Northman bust and two variants of the True Blood IDW Comic Book issue #3. The statue is #1979 of 5000, stands about 7.25" high. The comics are two variant covers by artist Joe Corroney, the black & white retailers incentive version, and the full color version! Also behold these two fun art pieces for your collection! The Sketch Cards! Jack Skellington from the wonderful Nightmare Before Christmas world! Plus, the slasher Michael Myers of Halloween horror film fame! Both come with a glass jack o' lantern jar/display stand. These two cool pieces were created by Anthony Aguilera for the #inktober craze on social media! These two pieces are sold separately, but would make a great set for any fan of the Halloween Holiday! And as for the Football Player, there is the Will Fuller Rookie Card Set! This set contains two very collectible trading cards, one is an authentic autograph card and the other is a player worn piece of jersey card!
