Press release below about a one year anniversary party for Challengers Comics in Chicago. If you’re around, pop in and meet fellow geeks and geekettes.
Challengers Comics is throwing a city wide party this Saturday April 4th, 2009 at 5pm. As a way to say thank you to their customers and the city that gave them a home, Challengers is having a party complete with food and drink to celebrate the one year anniversary of the store officially opening. In addition to the party, all back issues will be $1.00. The store encourages all interested to swing by and say “hello” or simply search the back issue bins for great deals. Challengers is located at 1845 N. Western Ave #2R, Chicago IL 60647.
“We didn’t want this to be our store and customers just shopped here,” explained Patrick Brower co owner of Challengers Comics. “We wanted it to be the customers store and we just happen to work here.” W. Dal Bush, the other half of Challengers Comics ownership continued, “We wanted a store that brought a high level of professionalism to our retail industry. Comic books are now in the mainstream. More Hollywood blockbusters than not are based off them. The New York Times now has a best selling graphic novel list. We are proof that the family unfriendly, grimy disorganized stereotype of a comic shop is history.”
