Reading with Rogues! Sex Criminals Vol 1 in December!

sex-criminals-vol-01-releasesEvery second Tuesday, we hold our graphic novel reading club! It will be hosted at Homefield Grill across the street in one of their private rooms, so in addition to fun talk about comics, you can buy delicious food and drinks, including a pretty stunning array of beers on tap.

The next meeting is on Tuesday, December 9th, starting at 7 PM and running until we run out of stuff to talk about (usually about 9:30 or 10:00 PM). Folks can come and go as they please, and we should have plenty of room.

The managers of Rogues Gallery will be on hand to talk about comics and hopefully get everybody chatting… we’re hoping to extend the vibe of our New Comics Wednesdays to everyone who maybe doesn’t get a chance to talk comics with their regular group of friends, or just can’t get enough comics talk.

Each meeting of the graphic novel club will have a book we choose as a headliner. We’ll offer a 15% discount on that book from the time of the announcement to the night of the graphic novel club. While we’re perfectly happy to have you bring one you already bought, we’re hoping folks will choose to buy this book from us rather than download it digitally or buy it somewhere else, to help us keep funding these get-togethers.

This month’s book is Sex Criminals Vol 1 by Matt Fraction and Chip Zdarsky. The 15% off sale starts effective now, and will run until we close at 9 PM on Tuesday, December 9th. (It’s always a good idea to remind the clerk at checkout about the discount.)

We’d love for folks to RSVP on the Facebook event page just so we can have a rough headcount, but walk-ins are absolutely welcome. And while we’ll focus the discussions around the graphic novel of the month, we’ll almost certainly be talking about other comics and graphic novels. Also, for the time being, since there’s alcohol available, it’s later at night and we’re probably going to be offering graphic novels that are aimed at an older audience, we’re making this an 18 and up event. If parents want to bring their 15-17 year olds, that’s OK, but just be aware that we may be talking about mature subject matter in the discussions. Especially this month.

We look forward to talking comics with you!

Black Friday & Thanksgiving Hours

maxsantacolorOur sixth annual Black Friday sale is coming on Friday, November 28th. Come kick off your holiday shopping and earn bonus gift certificates!
From the time we open (10 AM) until the time we close (10 PM) on Friday, November 28th, any purchase you make will also earn you bonus holiday gift certificates. For every $25 you spend, you’ll get $5 on a gift certificate, and you can break those up into individual $5 gift certificates, one big gift certificate with the whole amount or any other combination you choose. So for example, if you spend $100, you’ll get $20 in our special holiday gift certificates.
So come on in and get a little extra bang for your holiday-shopping buck. Or pick up something for yourself and get some bonus money to give away as gifts. But make sure and stop in for this one-day event!
Boring Rules Stuff:
Just like our regular gift certificates, these have no expiration date, and can be used for anything in the store. We’ll be using these throughout the holiday season. They cannot be used on the day of purchase, but can be used as early as Saturday, November 29th.
The amount used to calculate bonus gift certificates is the pre-tax value of merchandise (within reason – a $24.99 or $24.95 item will get you the $5 gift certificate). $5 is given for each full $25, not a fraction thereof.
We will be closed on Thursday, November 27th for Thanksgiving. There are no comic shipping delays related to Thanksgiving.

Gaming with Rogues – November!

1901889_10205263246081362_3094294534943415071_nStarting Monday, November 17th at Homefield Grill and continuing every month thereafter: Rogues Gallery will sponsor a casual gaming night. Each month will focus on a different game. The game night will begin at 7:00 PM and run until 9:00 PM (or longer if needed, up until Homefield closes.)

This month’s game is Fluxx. Dive Right In! The best way to learn Fluxx is to just start playing it. The rules of the game are printed right on the cards, so it’s easy to pick it up as you go along.

In addition there are several different versions of Fluxx which will be available to play. Zombies-check. Pirates-check. Cthulhu-check. Monty-Python-check. Also, if you have a version of Fluxx you’d like to bring, please feel free!

So drop by and enjoy friends, food, drinks and Fluxx!

Rogues Gallery Ladies Night on Monday, November 10th!

45_GIRL_COMICS_1LADIES! Do you like comics? Do you like games? Do you just enjoy getting your geek on? Are you looking to make some awesome new friends? Then join us for LADIES NIGHT! We meet once a month at Homefield Grill, which is conveniently located across the highway from Rogues, and is hosted by our lady staff! They have excellent food and a great selection of beers on tap. Doesn’t get much better than that.

Meetings are on Mondays and the fun kicks off at 7 and goes until around 9. We talk about all things geeky, from comics to games to movies. As adult content will most likely be discussed and as there will be alcohol present, we are making this an 18 and up event. Moms! You are welcome to bring your daughters! 15-17 is the preferred age group on that.

I would also like to add that we do not discriminate here at Rogues Gallery. If you identify as female, you are most welcome at our table.

Food. Booze. Good company. What more could you ask for?
