Florida Comic Stores Report In After Hurricane Irma

Last week, we reported on measures Floridan comic book stores were taking ahead of the arrival of Hurricane Irma. So how are they doing today?

Comics collectible grading company CGC reports in from their Florida headquarters:

"Our state-of-the-art headquarters in Sarasota, Florida, did not sustain any damage in the storm. All of our employees are safe, as are all of the collectibles in our care.. IT staff have now restored the select website functions that had been temporarily disabled out of an abundance of caution in advance of the storm… CCG will reopen as planned at 8:45am EST on Tuesday, September 12. Our advanced systems and extensive planning have thankfully meant that the storm had no impact on our operations except for an expected two-day delay in WalkThrough and Express grading tier turnaround times."

And the comic book stores seem to be OK, too. Though there may be a delay in this week's comic books, naturally.

We're also very much looking forward to Aaron Haaland's weekly report in from A Comic Shop in Orlando…
