Following those that came before

I’ve always really enjoyed reading other Game/Comic/Hobby store owners blogs. Two of my favorite ones are Quest for Fun by Gary Ray and Desert Sky Games Backstage Pass by Michael Bahr. I view both blogs as helpful tools of the trade that give me plenty of information to learn and… More

Turn the Page

Since I was a little kid I wanted to own a comic/game store. I’ve dabbled with the idea, almost starting one with a friend back in 2010 and continuing to carry enough back issues to stock any store upon opening. Between older card games and at one point 100,000 comics,… More

The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings Foils

The Hobbit’s Official Trailer #2 has been released and if you missed it, sit back and get ready to get goosebumps. The Hobbit Trilogy is going to be epic and it’s a shame that the characters from it will never be integrated into Decipher’s Lord of the Rings game. The… More
