UPDATED 2026 MIDNIGHT RELEASE SCHEDULE and our first one is NEXT WEEK! Okay so to make these midnight releases possible, I need you guys to read below the ground rules and how this is all going to work. Our distributor for Marvel (which also distributes IDW, Dark Horse, and Boom! Studios) has decided to work with us and allow us to host midnight releases! Doors are now going to open at 12AM during those releases! And only the publishers that are listed above are able to be taken home after midnight of that release date. The distributor for DC (who also runs IMAGE/SKYBOUND) allows pre-payments on new comics but unfortunately cannot be taken home during the midnight release. Once pre-paid, they will be put aside and can be taken home during our regular operation hours (11AM-8PM on Wednesday, 12PM-8PM Thursday-Saturday). SHORT VERSION: 12AM, we open. Marvel, IDW, DarkHorse and Boom! Studios comics can be physically in your hands during the event. DC and Image/Skybound cannot, but can still be pre-paid in advanced. So yes, Midnight releases are still happening but we just gotta ensure these extra steps to make it work. And seeing how awesome the RGV community is, we’re going to make it happen. So FREE PIZZA, FUN GAMES, and GREAT VIBES here at Kaboom!

This Saturday we will be celebrating our 9th year serving all our great customers! We would like to thank you all! We are here because of you!! Saturday at 7:00 pm we will have live music with Vidal and Elvia preforming together and for you!! Great drink specials all night!!

Better late than never, right? 😊 On Saturday, December 13th, we had such an amazing day! We kicked things off with a bird walk Santa Ana & Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuges where we spotted some fantastic birds, including verdins and a merlin. 🦅 Later that day, Dr. Andrea Contina visited the store and gave an absolutely fascinating talk about his migratory bird research! It’s amazing to see how technology is helping us understand more about these incredible creatures. 🌎✨ Fast forward to the following Saturday, and we had the privilege of hosting Andrew Orgill and Tess Kelly from the Amos Rehabilitation Keep - ARK at UT Marine Science Institute and University of Texas Marine Science Institute. They shared their incredible work reducing window strikes on campus with Feather Friendly Bird Collision Deterrent Markers and gave us great tips on making our homes and businesses more bird-friendly. 🏡💚 Huge thanks to all the amazing speakers, bird guides, and our wonderful WBU community members for making these Saturdays so special! You all make every weekend unforgettable. 🌿🦉 Happy birding, from the RGV's friendly backyard bird feeding specialists! 💚 🐦 #wbumcallen #rgvbirds #backyardbirding #mcallentexas #riograndevalley #Riograndevalleytexas

🎄✨ Tripp’s Christmas Village – A Day Full of Smiles & Holiday Cheer ✨🎄 This past Saturday, we were honored to host Tripp’s Christmas Village, a special event where we provided a Christmas party for the well-deserved children in our community. ❤️ The kids enjoyed a magical visit with Santa, including a photo, along with toys, blankets, socks, and other goodies. They also had a blast with cookie decorating, bracelet making, ornament crafting, a train ride, and other fun carnival rides. 🎅🍪🎨🚂 To keep everyone warm and happy, we served hot chocolate, cotton candy, and lunch. The smiles on the children’s faces—and those of their families—truly said it all. 😊 We want to send a heartfelt thank you to everyone who donated to help make this great event possible, and a huge THANK YOU to all of our Elks members and volunteers who gave their time and hearts to make it such a wonderful success. 💙🦌

Two Mexican Masks - The Tigre (jaguar) and the Dance of the Moors and the Christians (Moros y Cristianos) are storied symbols in popular festival dances and each have a long history. This rare tigre mask was made by Filiberto Lopez Ortiz, a mask maker of great skill who gained recognition for his talent from his native Oaxaca all the way to Mexico City, and this mask is one of the few that bears his signature. Definitely rare and collectible. Regarding the prevalence of the jaguar image in Mexican culture, Donald Cordry, in his book Mexican Masks, states, the jaguar was and is the single most important animal to the Indians of Central and Southern Mexico. A symbol of war, these were not wars just of conquest, but "flower wars", that were waged to obtain captives to be sacrificed to the gods. He further states that the symbol of the jaguar was more than a representation of the courage and violence implicit in the animal itself, the jaguar was a god in its own right and a model for the Indian way of life. The second mask would be used in the Dance of the Moors and Christians. Likely the first Christian dance introduced to Mexico which was recorded as far back as 1524 when it was presented to Cortes in Coatzacoalcos. It has remained one of the most popular festival dances since then, due to it's representation of good vs evil. Created as part of the Holy Crusade to convert the Mexican Indigenous groups to Christianity, it now comprises an entire group of dances with many variations that over the years have given mask makers and Santeros the ability to show off their unique artistry and talent. Both of these masks are on display and available for purchase. Take home a rare and collectible piece of art today! We are open Monday thru Friday 10:00 am to 5:00 pm and Saturday by appointment. #nuevosantandergallery #texasartgallery #mexicanfolkart #mexicanmask #mexicandancemasks #tigremask #tigré #morosycristianos
