In which real things are getting realer

The Saturday before my signing is Free Comic Book Day, traditionally the biggest day of the year for any comic shop.  These are pack-in cards for FCBD; I’m making somewhere between 500 and 750 of them depending on cost.  They will all be handed out that day pretty much no matter how many I make.  This is alpha-level early, so if anyone has comments or advice I’d love to hear it.

The back side will be black-and-white; ignore the color logo.

Note: I’m not including the address of the comic shop on the cards because they’ll be handed to customers AT THE COMIC SHOP, who presumably know where they are.  The store’s logo is on there twice to remind them if they forget.  I’m planning on pricing the books at $10.00 for one or $15 for two; bringing the card will let you get one for $5 or both for $10.  This still represents profit as my per-book cost is low.  Do I need to find a place to put that on the card?

Casey Heying, by the way, owns the shop, so people will know who he is.

Whaddya think?

  1. I like the card and I don’t think you need to include the prices of your discount for your books; however, I think it needs to be clear that the card allows 50% off YOUR books otherwise someone may try to pull a fast one and try to get 50% off any book in the store.
