LOCAL COMIC SHOP DAY® 2025

NEW LOGO FOR NEW DIRECTION

The new logo, designed by Tim Daniel, writer and designer known for his work at Vault Comics and independent titles industry-wide spanning the last 20 years, reflects the idea of comic shops as a part of a neighborhood, while also invoking the small business feel.

 

“We asked Tim to redesign our logo to convey a change in direction for Local Comic Shop Day,” said Kate deNeveu, ComicsPRO Director of Operations.  “Retailers want the event to be a celebration of local comic shops and their place in the communities.    Our job at ComicsPRO is to bridge the gap and give participants the tools needed to run a truly successful community-building Local Comic Shop Day.  Tools like pre-written press releases, signage and sale ideas, marketing assets, instructions for running kid-friendly scavenger hunts, and much much more.  ComicsPRO’s greatest strength is the collective knowledge and experience of our members, and this year we’re putting it all to work.”
