With Napoleon Dynamite and Riverdale items in the premium Schooled DX crate.

No idea what, or if they involve actual comic book items. It may be worth noting that IDW is launching a new Napoleon Dynamite comic book in October. Could we get an early issue? Or, considering, this is Loot Crate, a late one after the entire series has finished sometime in 2020?

You may still be able to get a discount here with the code BLEEDINGCOOL – I have no idea if that still works or not.
