We know creating a pull subscriptions to get comics put aside is fun and all, but it’s not fun for us when the comics don’t actually get picked up. This is $600+ worth of new comics that haven’t been picked up and ends up being a loss for us. I know we’ve had a lot of interest lately in pull subscriptions, especially with all the cool new titles releasing, but please do keep in mind that when you subscribe to the 5 ongoing titles, those titles have to be ones you actually have interest in picking up. We know 5 titles can be difficult so that’s why we have the invoice option where you can just pre pay specific covers or less than 5 titles if interested. Pre pay is a safer option for us and you still get your comics reserved. Either way, we are closing some pull subscription accounts today so if you plan on keeping yours open or plan on not picking them up from us, please let us know.
