Ssalefish GSO First Look #133 for 10.23.19
In case you missed it on Facebook the other day, Bret did an interview with comics retail trade magazine ICv2 the other day in which he officially announced the opening of our third store in Concord in 2020!
As a teenager, going to Concord Mills Mall when it opened in 1999 was the height of shopping luxury. Bruton Smith, owner of Charlotte Motor Speedway, was a Rockefeller. PNC Music Pavilion was the home of punk rock summer camp. And we’re gonna be at the heart of all of it, at Exit 49 on I-85, on the other side of the highway from the mall, off Bruton Smith Boulevard, 2 miles from the track, 4 miles from the venue!
