☕❄️ A Warm Place to Land
Snowy sidewalks, slow commutes, and winter doing its thing—this is when the comic shop really earns its keep. Green Brain has always been more than a stop for books; it’s a third place. Somewhere to linger, talk stories, share recommendations, and remember that culture is best enjoyed together. If you can’t get everywhere this week, we’re glad you found your way here.
🎬📖 Movie Night Pairing: Roman Holiday (1953)
Slip out of the noise and into pure movie magic at the historic Senate Theater. This Saturday, January 17, Roman Holiday lights up the big screen—Audrey Hepburn, Gregory Peck, postwar Rome, and a story about stealing one perfect day for yourself. Doors open to nostalgia, elegance, and the reminder that some films don’t age—they ripen.
📖 The Perfect Graphic Novel Pair: Blankets by Craig Thompson
Like Roman Holiday, Blankets understands that fleeting moments can define a lifetime. It’s tender, introspective, and soaked in that bittersweet glow of first love and personal awakening. One is a whirlwind day in Rome, the other a slow snowfall of memory—but both leave you changed, quietly grateful you were there.
🎤🍬 Brain Candy #74 — Monday, January 19
Brain Candy is one of our favorite reminders that creativity thrives when people show up for each other. Curated by the Emerging Writers Network, this free, live evening of prose, poetry, music, and visual art brings together voices that surprise, challenge, and inspire. This month features Brizzl (music), Rochelle Marrett (prose), Booker Snow (poetry), and Keto Green (visual art). Come listen, support the artists, and soak up something beautiful.
✏️🍺 Drink & Draw @ Downey Brewing
If your hands are itching to make something, Drink & Draw is your people. All skill levels welcome, zero pressure required. Bring your favorite supplies, grab art samples from Blick Art Materials, enjoy prompts and surprises from Green Brain, and settle in for a relaxed night of drawing and conversation. Snacks encouraged, good vibes mandatory. Next up: Friday, February 13.
📺🧠 BrainScan (YouTube)
BrainScan is our weekly chance to slow down and look ahead together. Join us live as we flip through upcoming releases, spotlight hidden gems, and talk about what’s worth your time and attention. It’s part preview, part hangout, and a great way to feel connected—even from the couch.
⏰📦 LAST CALL (formerly Final Order Report)
LAST CALL is exactly what it sounds like: your final heads-up before orders lock. We walk through what’s closing, what’s hot, and what you’ll want on your pull list before the window shuts. If you like knowing instead of hoping, this one’s for you.
🌟 Spotlight Titles to Get Lost In
🩸 Bloodland #1
A sweeping, savage political horror where vampires pull the strings and survival is anything but guaranteed. Big ideas, brutal stakes, and a cross-country story that reads like a fever dream you can’t look away from.
😈 Touched by a Demon #1
A charming, funny, and heartfelt twist on redemption. A low-level demon opens a life-coach business to save souls—and maybe himself. Kristen Gudsnuk delivers humor with heart and just enough existential chaos.
🚀 SAVE NOW #0
The explosive origins of Earth’s last line of defense. Living weapons, global stakes, and sci-fi action from Matt Kindt and a killer art team. Big energy, big concepts, and a perfect on-ramp to what’s coming.
💡 DC K.O. Green Lantern: Galactic Slam #1
Cosmic chaos meets pro wrestling spectacle. Kyle Rayner enters the ring, the universe holds its breath, and yes—there are tables. Loud, joyful, and gloriously unhinged.
⚔️ Psylocke: Ninja #1
A lost chapter from the X-Men’s past that dives deep into Betsy Braddock’s transformation. Ninja lore, hard choices, and sharp action make this a must for Psylocke fans and continuity lovers alike.
