The Comic Monstore is Rowan County’s premier destination for comic books, games and toys. Since 2003, The Comic Monstore has catered to fans of super heroes, fantasy, science-fiction and horror. While the store has a wide variety of collectibles for kids of all ages, it has also become a gathering place for gamers. Weekly events usually include Magic: The Gathering, Dungeons & Dragons, Disney’s Lorcana TCG, Riftbound: League of Legends TCG, Star Wars Unlimited TCG, Pathfinder RPG, and a variety of other card games and board games.
The Comic Monstore opened in May of 2003. Conveniently located near exit 75, off of I-85, the shop is easy to locate. The store is owned by Ray & Karen Franks, and the store manager is Shane Peoples. If you are hungry, we are near several locations for food including Massimo’s Sandwich Shop, Culver’s, Wendy’s, Casa Grande Mexican Restaurant, and Ichiban’s Japanese Steakhouse.
FREE COMIC BOOK DAY is this Saturday! It’s the biggest celebration in the comic book world, and you’re invited! On this special day, comic shops across North America and around the globe open their doors and give away FREE comics to everyone who walks in. We are also teaming up with NC Underground Toy Swap and inviting vendors to set up outside and sell/trade their own toys, games, and books . . . weather permitting.
This week in comics, Batman and Wonder Woman team up for a classic caper brought to you by superstar talent writer Jeph Loeb and artist Jim Cheung! The Lasso of Truth has been stolen, and the Caped Crusader and Amazon Princess race to ensure a safe return before it falls into the wrong hands. You won’t want to miss the aftermath of Batman: HUSH featuring the devious duo foolish enough to steal from Wonder Woman… the Joker and Harley Quinn! Pick up a copy of Batman / Wonder Woman: The Truth #1 at Comic Monstore or other fine comic book shops.
On Sunday, join us for the Riftbound: Unleashed Pre-Rift sealed event. It’s the first opportunity players can get their hands on the new set’s cards and play with them before the set is officially released. Think of it as a sneak peek of what’s to come with the added bonus of cracking open some sweet booster packs filled with brand new cards. Pre-Rift events are fun, social, and casual! The focus is on learning and light-hearted fun—not cut-throat competition.
