Blog Fanatic: The Death of Superman
In 1994, while I was a student in New Orleans at Tulane, there was a man by the name of Tony Parodi who frequently stopped in at Jim Hanley’s Universe. Tony hated the feel of newsprint, and was not there for comic books. However, he had gotten into this great new collectible card game, and wanted Jim Hanley’s to start carrying the game, so he could pick them up during his lunch break. After weeks of pestering, the store employees finally agreed to order a single box of product. The product had already gone up above retail price on the wholesale level, so they priced the packs at $10 each. The box of Legends was put out at the register that morning at 10am. By noon, the entire box had been sold.
