Comic shops are likely going the way of shopping malls, arcades and soon, movie theaters. Another major comic book retailer in Philadelphia is closing its doors, possibly forever. In fact, they've been EVICTED after almost 50 years in business because they can't pay their rent. Fat Jack's Comicrypt joins dozens of other major metropolitan retailers packing it in after DECADES in business. No, there is no coming back from this. We'll never have a thriving comic shop ecosystem like we did before the pandemic. Comics will go on, but comic shops as an institution are basically over. Then we talk about how Marvel Comics might be looking to outsource comics after all these decades.

Eventually it got to the point where it couldn't float any more, so we turned it into a private club instead.
No more selling games to the public.
Everyone just pitches in $50 for rent, etc.
That worked out really well.
