'BREXIT' AFFECTS COST OF COMICS - BUT DON'T PANIC, IT'S NOT AS BAD AS YOU MAY THINK... (Updated - AGAIN)...

The good ol' days.  (Sigh!)

According to one site a few days ago, DIAMOND DISTRIBUTORS are increasing the price of some U.S. comics by up to 25% as of today (as a result of the BREXIT vote) and others on Monday 18th of this month.  I'm told by those 'in the know' that the average increase will actually be much lower than this and won't come into effect until the new titles go on sale on Wednesday 20th.

Update as of July 19th:

Whooaaa!  Even more good news!  It now seems that the price rise won't take effect for at least a further week - possibly even a fortnight.  I'll let you know when I get any more news, so stay tuned, Criv-ites!

Update as July 20th:

It's next week, frantic ones - July 27th.

RECOMMENDED READING: DAREDEVIL EPIC COLLECTION VOLUME ONE...

I've got all of these stories already, but I can never resist the allure of a brand-spanking new collection of classic comics, and the recent DAREDEVIL EPIC COLLECTION certainly fits the bill in that department.  Read the spiel on the back cover, then steal your wife's Bingo money that she keeps in the cookie jar on top of the fridge (she'll only waste it on frivolities), race around to your nearest comics shop and buy yourself a copy.

Hey, I've just noticed that my skin has turned purple.  (If you're a DD fan, you'll know what I'm talking about.)  Let's see if it works.  "Go and buy this book now!"
