This Saturday, August 14, 2021 is FREE COMIC BOOK DAY for Comic Book Stores all across the country.

Typically, Free Comic Book Day would fall on the first Saturday in May and Heroes Aren’t Hard to Find would celebrate by inviting several of our favorite comic-book artists to join us for the day to sign comics and draw sketches.

2020 and 2021 have NOT been “typical” by any stretch of the imagination, and here we find ourselves celebrating Free Comic Book Day in one of the HOTTEST months of the year.

So, while we will have a limited stock* of Free Comic Book Day books to give away on Saturday, we will NOT be hosting Artists at our store this year.
(It’s just TOO HOT to ask Artists or Customers to stand outside in the heat.)

We will be limiting the number of people in the store on Saturday to 30 people at a time (including staff), and masks are required for EVERYONE regardless of vaccination status. This will be enforced throughout the event.

*It’s worth noting that Free Comic Book Day books were ordered many months ago, back when the pandemic made events even more tentative than they are now. As a result, we ordered fewer quantities of titles than we typically would, and will be limiting availability to all customers.

We appreciate your understanding and we look forward to seeing you this weekend!

Masks are now optional for all vaccinated customers!

If you have received your COVID-19 vaccine, then the CDC no longer recommends wearing a mask!

Our entire staff is now fully vaccinated, and we hope that you are as well!

With this exciting development, along with the CDC’s current safety recommendations, we will no longer require customers to wear a mask while shopping in our store.
We also fully support anyone’s choice to continue wearing a mask! If you feel more comfortable wearing a mask please continue to do so.

If you have not been vaccinated we ask that you consider wearing a mask while shopping in our store for your own safety, as well as in consideration for those around you. We have disposable masks available for anyone who would like to wear one.

We have also increased our capacity to 100% at this time. 
We still recommend that you put reasonable distance between yourself and others while shopping, because let’s face it, THAT’S JUST GOOD MANNERS.

CONTINUED SAFE SHOPPING GUIDELINES:

• We will continue to provide hand sanitizer for you to use upon entering and exiting the store.  
   
• Please be respectful of social distance and personal space while in our store.
  That’s just common sense. Don’t crowd others while shopping, it’s creepy. 
   
• Staff will continue to sanitize and wash our hands as often as possible.  
   
• WE ASK THAT ANYONE WHO FEELS UNWELL TO PLEASE STAY HOME. (This includes our staff!)
  That is ALSO good common sense. If you feel unwell, STAY HOME!

  We can ship to anyone, anywhere! (Well, anywhere that USPS or UPS delivers…so maybe not SPACE??)

SAFE SHOPPING GUIDELINES

People are getting vaccinated which is a TREMENDOUS STEP in the right direction!

Things are slowly inching back toward some degree of “normal”,
or at least toward a “new normal”.
Almost everyone on our staff has been vaccinated,
and we encourage you to do the same!

We are as excited as anyone to get back to that sweet pre-pandemic life, but we will continue to observe the following safety precautions as we begin to ease up on restrictions within our store.

We understand that Governor Cooper lifted the Mask Mandate for North Carolina earlier today.

However, at this time, we would like to exercise caution before we lift the mask requirement in our store.

Heroes will continue to maintain the following Safety Protocols for a safe shopping experience!

—

• We ask that EVERYONE (including staff) continue to wear a mask while shopping or working inside of our store.
  Even if you’re only coming in for ONE ITEM.
  No mask = NO ENTRY.
  If you do not have a mask, one can be provided to you. 

  We understand some of you will not want to wear a mask and, while we understand that is your personal preference, you will not be permitted in our store without a mask at this time.
  We appreciate your patience, understanding and consideration for everyone’s safety at this time. If you do not want to wear a mask, or if you would prefer not to come inside the store until we have lifted our mask policy, we are happy to arrange shipping for books.)

• We have increased the capacity of our store to 30.
  This number includes employees. 
  We will increase this number toward “Full Capacity” over the next few weeks as long as there are no surges in COVID cases in our state.
   
• We will continue to provide hand sanitizer for you to use upon entering and exiting the store.  
   
• Please be respectful of social distance while in our store.
  Please be courteous to your fellow customers and try to allow for at least five feet of distance between yourself and others. Let’s face it, it’s just GOOD MANNERS. 
   
• We will continue to sanitize and wash our hands as often as possible.  
   
• WE ASK THAT ANYONE WHO FEELS UNWELL TO PLEASE STAY HOME. (This includes our staff!)
  We can ship to anywhere in the United States and are happy to arrange a safe transaction for you! Just let us know!
   
• WE CAN SHIP!!
  We can ship to anyone, anywhere! If you’d like to send a Christmas Gift to a family member in another state, we can ship directly to them!!
  
  

• OUR HOURS UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE:
  Monday-Tuesday & Thursday-Saturday: 10am-7pm
  Wednesday: 10am-9pm
