The Store
Brave New World is a full service comic store that has been serving Southern California's Santa Clarita Valley for the last 12 years. We carry a full line of comics, graphic novels, toys, t-shirts and more. Our focus has always been on marketing comics as a literacy tool and entertainment for the entire family.
The Display
For the Spider-Man movie, and Free Comic Book Day, we pulled out all the stops, from advertising to promotion. We began a month in advance by having local animator turned comic artist AJ Jothikumar (BTVS: Willow and Tara - Wilderness) paint a 20-foot Spider-Man on our storefront. Then in an effort to bring BNW to the people, we set up a 'Brave New Satellite' in the lobby of our local theatre, stocked, exclusively with Spider-Man merchandise, books, posters and t-shirts.
