The hawk-eyed readers of our site amongst you, will probably realise that the Comic Impact podcasters have not done a usual ‘Trade Tuesday‘ podcast for about a month.

I sure do love my action figures- one of my favorite parts of writing for this site is being able to do Figure Friday. However, I hate it when mega-stores get exclusive figures, such as the new DC Universe Classics wave 10 that are only at Walmart.
After a long wait, Wave 10 has officially shown up in the Walmart computer system. If you want to get your hands on some here are the ISBN numbers:

Hey there Comic Impact readers and listeners! If you read the most recent Trade Tuesday article you know I covered The Bomb, published by Asylum Press and written and drawn by creator Steve Mannion.

So the other day we had a talk about the Nick Fury 3 3/4″ Marvel Universe figure by Hasbro that you can get for free. Here is the official low down on how you can get your hands on this figure:
First you have to purchase a subscription to Marvel Digital Comics Unlimited™ and then you have to pay $4.99 for shipping and handling ($6.99 Canadian).
Now fans, will you buy this Nick Fury action figure for around $65.00? because after adding the subscription fee and the shipping and handling fee, that is what Marvel is...

Well kids if you are doing the math and keeping score then you know that June 1st is the six month mark since we started Comic Impact! It’s fitting too because while myself (Sheldon), Simon, and Andy are all local to L.A., we managed to get Butmac out to the West Coast for this monumental day to take part in some photos, a few beers, and comics!
Here are a couple pictures of Andy guzzling his second Bloody Mary with myself smiling gorgeously in the background, and Butmac giving the gun to his friend -D-. We had a brief...

What an honor it is for us to have this exclusive! Sometimes I just can’t believe the amazing things that come across my desk here at the Comic Impact offices, but here is one shining example of one of those things. Here we have Batman himself completely uncut talking about the real issues he struggles with daily.
This is a side of Bruce Wayne I honestly can’t believe we’re seeing. It’s so real and relatable - we finally see a side of ol’ Bats we can sympathize with.
