A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Supporters

In the dynamic world of comics, where every panel holds a story, Gnash Comics has weathered its fair share of challenges. Just a few short months ago, in the midst of uncertainty, we reluctantly announced the possibility of closing our doors for good. Yet today, we stand resolute and joyful in declaring that Gnash Comics is here to stay, thanks to the incredible outpouring of support from our loyal customers, bookshop volunteers, and Exeter City of Literature. This blog post is our heartfelt expression of gratitude to those who stood by us, and a special acknowledgment to Jock and Lee Garbett for their extraordinary support when we needed it most.

The Threat of Closure: A Turning Point

A few months ago, Gnash Comics, faced a daunting challenge. The pandemic had left its mark, and whilst online sales continued the footfall within the town had slowed for all businesses. The decision whether to continue or close the store cast a shadow over our cherished haven for comic lovers. It was a challenging moment for our Gnash Comics team.

The Incredible Outpouring of Support

What happened next was nothing short of amazing. Current and past customers, along with bookshop volunteers, and Exeter City of Literature rallied together like true superheroes. The support we received was overwhelming, touching our hearts and inspiring us to persevere.

Special Thanks to Jock and Lee Garbett

 In our hour of need, two exceptional individuals from our comic community stood out as beacons of support: Jock and Lee Garbett. Their dedication to our cause and their unwavering support when it was most needed was nothing short of heroic. They demonstrated the true spirit of the comic community, reminding us of the strength that lies within our tight-knit family of creators and enthusiasts.

The Road Ahead

 With the support of our amazing community, Gnash Comics is not only here to stay but also poised for a brighter future. We’re excited to continue serving as a hub for all things comics, where stories come to life, and fans can share their passion.

A New Chapter Begins

In the world of comics, every issue marks the beginning of a new chapter, and Gnash Comics is no exception. We want to extend our deepest gratitude to our customers, book volunteers, Exeter City of Literature, and especially Jock and Lee Garbett for helping us turn the page on a potentially dark chapter and write a new, exciting one together.

Thank you for your unwavering support. Gnash Comics is here to stay, and we can’t wait to share the adventure of comics with you for many more years to come.

To celebrate we are hosting The Devils Cut Signing Event with Jock and Lee Garbett on September 23rd, we hope to see you there. You can read about it here
