I Kill Giants
Monday, January 25th, 2010ComicPull
Wednesday, February 10th, 2010Some of you may have noticed the Logo to the lower right of the screen, or been given one of our snappy ComicPull cards upon entering The 4th Wall.

ComicPull is an online system that we have set up to [...]

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010In response to this post, I received the following. All I can say about it is not once in my post did I mention Diamond. Have a read.
Acutally, Moss– F*ck You.

An Update
Thursday, March 11th, 2010Apparently, there was more to say. For the record, I didn’t delete any of this person’s comments or posts, and they are still available on TheWatchtowerPodcast.com and NoReasonComics.com.

I also see, that by deleting my post, you’ve proven what type of [...]
NABIS @ The 4th Wall – March 11, 2010

We got some pretty cool stuff in this week, including a brand new paperback collection of Garth Ennis’ The Boys (Vol.6), a new Hellboy collection (vol.9), and the long awaited (and inevitable) [...]

Thoughts on Marvel and The iPad
Friday, April 2nd, 2010The much-anticipated Apple iPad hit US stores this week, and the usual buying frenzy occurred. The iPad has been a gadget that the comics community has been watching closely, as it offers for the first time a portable, easy way to read comics digitally in full-colour in a size close to their printed counterparts.

Monday, April 12th, 2010When we first conceived of The 4th Wall, we wanted to present a comic store that was clean, well-lit, with a focus on knowledgeable and friendly customer service.

In fact the mantra we repeated over and over again was “Apple Store Meets Comic Store.” Hopefully we’ve come close to [...]
