The All Star Universe


So here we are at the midway point of the year, and what a blast the last 6 months have been! In the short time since we opened our doors to the Melbourne comic book buying community, so much has happened. We have managed to survive our first convention experience, hold a stellar Free Comic Book Day event, host an instore signing/Q&A with one of Australia's best known comic creators, have a launch for one of Australia's most exciting new local books and more importantly, start to stock a range of top quality locally produced titles!These were all things we hoped to achieve in the early days of the store, and we could not be more happy with how things have panned out.

That said, none of this would have been even remotely possible without the incredible amount of support we have been given by you guys every step of the way. We are humbled that you would choose to shop with us over the many other stores in Melbourne. We appreciate the effort of just taking time out of your day to drop by and say hi, or responding to posts on Facebook. All of this means something to us.

We hope to continue to be a point of interest in Melbourne's comic book culture beyond the whole "new kids in town" bit. We want to be able to continue with instore events and promotions that will hopefully keep you guys wanting to come back for more.

Which brings us to this. It's a little something we've named ALL STAR UNIVERSE.

The All Star Universe will be the banner under which future instore activities, events and promotions will be advertised . We will try our very best to roll out a new idea every month that will hopefully make you want to be part of the All Star Universe too.

The launch promotion for the ASU will of course be our DC 52 Relaunch Program! More details for this will be posted soon.

Again thank you all for your support both on here and in the store. We could have never made this long time dream come true without you.
Cheers,
Troy and Mitch.
