For almost 44 years now, Fat Jack’s Comiccrypt has been providing comics to readers of all ages in Oaklyn, NJ and Philadelphia, PA. I got a chance to talk with the owner, Mike Ferraro who told me about the history of the store, where he’s seen the industry go, and how today’s generation can get more involved. On Sunday nights you’ll find comic book sales on Fat Jack’s FaceBook page. You can also find them on Twitter as well. Be sure to keep an eye out for events as Fat Jack’s just recently had Batman legend Tom King in the store giving away free comics and autographs to all who voted this past election day! In the past Fat Jack’s Comiccrypt has also distributed to about 60 stores in the Philadelphia area; they have a rich history, and hope to keep the comic book tradition going for generations to come! Check out this video below and be sure to support your local comic book shops during this year’s difficult holiday season for small businesses.

I was wondering how Mike has been doing. I use to shop in his first two Philly stores when they were on 20th St. way back in 1976-82.
