E-Mail Problems Persist…
Hello!
Hope everyone’s week is going well!
We’re having some technical difficulties; namely our e-mail account/server/host/thing  is suffering from an “Internal Error [Serverbug]”.
Consequently, we’re unable to send/receive e-mail from info@thundergroundcomics.com
In the interim, I’ve sent up a temporary e-mail account: roykim_TG@yahoo.ca that I’ve been using since Tuesday.
So, if you’ve sent me an e-mail and it bounced back to you, it’s because of this issue our host is going through. We are def here and open for business.
Regards,
Roy Kim
Everyone’s fave zombie TV show “Walking Dead”  returns from it’s mid-season break this Sunday, February 12 at 10 PM and you can watch “Walking Dead” with us at the store at our:
WALKING DEAD VIEWING PARTY!
We’ll be open from 12 Noon to 6 PM, as per usual, then we’ll have to close from 6 PM to 8 PM so I can get some supper and setup!

For those who haven’t seen the first season or missed a few episodes along the way, we’ll be watching season one on NetFlix throughout the week! You can also catch up on AMC’s website:

2. Discounts do NOT stack. One discount only per item.
3. All sales are final. No returns. No Exchanges.
4. All quantities are limited to what I have onhand. No substitutions. No rainchecks.
5. No holds.
Why no returns or exchanges?
Believe me, I’ve had buyers’ remorse just like everyone else. But when we have a discount scale based on a purchase minimum (like our Warmachine and Warhammer 40K sale), it makes taking a return or exchange difficult.
I hope everyone doesn’t find this too oppressive =)

This is Director Christopher Nolan’s closing chapter on everyone’s favourite DC comic character. Set for July 20, 2012 the movie takes place 8 years after the final moments of “The Dark Knight“.
What’s happened in the mean time?
Enter villain (this time around a terrorist): Bane, played by Tom Hardy. Also making an appearance is Anne Hathaway as Selina Kyle, Catwoman!
Naturally, details are pretty sparse at the moment, I wish I had more info for you, but check out the trailer and the IMDB link below!

Hello!
Hope your holidays are joyous and festive!
We have a couple cancellations in our D&DE schedule:
*Thursday, December 22, 2011
*Thursday, December 29, 2011
Very sorry for those who were interested in meeting up and rolling some dice, but several of our regulars will be away and thought it best to cancel those 2 meetings altogether.
Please know that we will be back on our regular schedule in the New Year.
Regards,
Roy Kim
