MIDTOWN COMICS NEW FREE BACK ISSUE PICK UP

For years, you could purchase your comics from Midtown Comics Online. Midtown Comics offers both domestic and international shipping. However, there is a hefty price for shipping. Now, Midtown Comics is offering free in store pick up of back issues ordered from their online store. Customers can have their comics sent any one of their three stores. The process is not without its shortcomings. The offer applies to back issues only. Customers should expect to wait 3 to 5 business days before they can pick up their purchase. There is no e-mail notification that alerts you that your comics are ready for pick up. However, a store manage did tell me that they are working hard to provide e-mail notifications. All in all, it is a good deal.

MIDTOWN COMICS NEW CODEWORD FOR JUNE 2011

Midtown Comics, which his located in New York City, have a special sale for the month of June. Customers can use the secret codeword "LANTERN" to get 25% off of all DC Comics. The sale is particularly attractive because it applies to both current and back issues. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first time that Midtown Comics is offering a sale on new issues. Usually, these discounts only appear on their in-store sales. So enjoy the sale and save some bucks.

The codeword is not case sensitive. When you go through checkout, make sure to type in the codeword and click "Activiate."
