Big Planet Comics' new Bethesda location at 7939 Norfolk Avenue doesn't have the Big Window its old Cordell Avenue storefront had, with all of the neon superhero logos that could catch the attention of comic book lovers passing by. Yesterday, the shop put out these sandwich board images on the sidewalk to point True Believers in the right direction. One features the classic comic strip character Nancy, who has recently enjoyed a reboot by artist Olivia Jaimes, which The Washington Post should publish every day instead of just Sundays. The other has a more contemporary Marvel character, Spider-Gwen. Excelsior!
