FAT JACK’S COMICRYPT CELEBRATES BATMAN DAY ON JULY 23rd

SPECIAL 75TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION AT BOTH LOCATIONS

WITH SPECIALS AND MORE

And there's more at our New Jersey location - from 3 - 8 PM kids under 12 will receive a free Batman head sketch from our special guest - long time super star artist Christopher Ivy.

Christopher Ivy started his career working for John Romita and Don Perlin in the Marvel Bullpen. He's most known for his inking stints at Marvel over Ron Garney on Ghost Rider, Michael Bair and Tom Morgan on Alpha Flight, Dwayne Turner on Cage and over James Fry and Stephen Platt on Marc Spector: Moon Knight. Eventually his inking credits included work for virtually every other comics publisher.

"When DC Entertainment announced Batman day, we knew we had to do something special for our loyal customers, our devoted comic fans who continue to come in and celebrate comics every day of the year.  The least we could do was to have a special sale at both The Philadelphia and New Jersey locations, and being able to bring a notable artist such as Chris Ivy for fans to meet, and to draw one-of-a-kind original art for kids under 12 is a great way to celebrate at our New Jersey Location.  We welcome all fans new and old to celebrate this momentous occasion." states Fat Jack's Mike Ferrero.

Then from 5-8pm Batman* will be taking a break from his busy schedule to join us for a few hours to pose for pictures with fans of all ages.

And to celebrate 1939 - the year that Batman first appeared in Detective Comics #27 we'll be celebrating the 39 theme as both Fat Jack's locations will be offering 39% discounts on Batman related back issues AND 20% discount on batman related graphic novels, again, at both Fat Jack’s locations, making BATMAN DAY a great day to be a comic fan and Fat Jack's THE comic stores to celebrate this great occasion!

Coming on the heels of successful events including appearances from wrestling superstars Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian as well as comic book legend Neal Adams, and popular promotions with Dynamite and IDW Publishing, the BATMAN DAY event is one more way for Fat Jack’s to provide fun and excitement for all our fans.

Fat Jack’s Comicrypt is the Philadelphia area’s premiere comics shop with 38 years of providing the best in comics.

* Batman not the real Batman (but you already knew that, right?).  Our Batman is a great fan who shops at the Fat Jack's New Jersey location and is dressing up for kids and fans to help commemorate this special day.  It's not often that a cultural icon turns 75!

FAT JACK’S COMICRYPT CELEBRATES INDEPENDENCE DAY WITH IDW

Fat Jack’s Comicrypt and IDW Publishing have teamed up to celebrate Philly’s IDW-Independence Day Weekend, as well as the newest entry in the Transformers movie franchise “TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION” with IDW DAYS AT FAT JACK’S.  Join the celebration on July 5^th at our New Jersey location, and July 5^th & 6^th at our Center City Philadelphia location.

IDW Publishing has provided a selection of promotional materials, as well as a deluxe hardcover to be awarded to one lucky visitor at each location.  Fat Jack’s is offering all IDW trades at 20% off, and IDW back issues at 50% off during the event.

IDW has some of the most innovative and best selling titles in the industry.  Publishing a variety of titles such as Transformers, G I Joe, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Star Trek, the upcoming Walter Simonson Ragnarok, and many others, IDW publications appeal to a wide range of readers.

“Having just had two events in June, one with wrestling superstars Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian and the other an appearance by Living Legend Neal Adams, we wondered what we could do to follow up and continue to reward our customers.  We thought that the best way would be to celebrate Independence Day with one of the best independent publishers in the comics market.  We thank IDW for providing door prizes as well as grand prizes for our fans”, said Mike Ferrero of Fat Jack’s Comicrypt.
