New FNM incentives through the Summer!

Post author By Jason
Post date June 22, 2015

Celebrate summer at New Wave Comics with some sweet Friday Night Magic incentives! Join us on Friday nights throughout the summer season, June 21-September 23, & enjoy some extras:

Bring a new player or a friend who hasn’t been in the shop yet in 2015 & get a FREE BOOSTER PACK.
FNM top winners will get to choose a card from the PRIZE BOX. Cards are hidden, so it’s a game of chance, but we assure you, there are some sweet singles in there!
$12 DRAFT every week
Tasty PRIZE SUPPORT: 8-11 players – 1st/3 packs, 2nd/2 packs, 3rd/1 pack; 12+ players – 1st/6 packs, 2nd/4 packs, 3rd/2 packs.

Promos:

June — It’s warm outside, but it’s getting frosty at Friday Night Magic as Frost Walker, a tragically terrifying 4/1 Elemental, comes bounding to a June FNM near you.
July — Your eyes do not deceive you. Participate in an FNM in July and you might just walk away with one of the best removal spells ever printed. Path to Exile is a near-universal staple in Modern, and July will grant you an opportunity to stand out further from the pack with this new version, now featuring art from Raf Sarmento. In celebration of Modern Masters 2015 Edition, both July and August FNM promos will be Modern staples. What will August’s be? Tune in next month to find out.
August — Do you see? Do you see? Your vision of the future will be 20/20 come August when Serum Visions, with art by Dan Scott, comes to an FNM near you.
September — Promo TBA

Friday Night Magic starts at 6:30pm. Contact the shop at info@newwavecomics.net with any questions.

My Little Pony CCG Prerelease

Post author By Jason
Post date April 14, 2015

Hello Every Pony! Come join us for a My Little Pony prerelease on April 26 at 1pm, featuring Absolute Discord! We’re exited to host our first Pony prerelease and want to make it a fun time for all Pony players.

Here’s the rundown:

Each participant will receive six Absolute Discord booster packs, a “Rainbow Dash, Rainbow Crash” promo card, an Absolute Discord button, and a special score counter.
Players will have 45 minutes to put together a deck out of the cards they get in the packs. The main deck should have no fewer than 30 cards, and no fewer than 5 problem cards. Players will then partake in a Swiss-system tournament. The games will be played best of one.
First place winner receives a Lord Tirek promo card & an Absolute Discord playmat. Second place receives a Lord Tirek promo card. Throughout the tournament, there will be raffles for Absolute Discord posters and “Chaos Rules!” T-shirts.
Because the prerelease falls on the same day that the Chaos is Magic format is held, the tournament will adhere to the Chaos rule of the month: Color Blind! We’re expecting a metric ton of chaos.
Everyone is encouraged to bring there own Mane character card, but if needed, we can provide them (same with Problems, if needed). If you do bring your own Mane, we ask that you refrain from using any ultra rare Manes, sans the one(s) you may get in your booster packs.

Participation fee is $25. Contact us at info@newwavecomics.net or visit the shop with any questions or to register!

The main title Convergence #2 is also out this week — details are below, along with some other books we’re looking forward to:

Convergence #2: As Telos, the Planet Incarnate, easily defeats the survivors of Earth 2, Thomas Wayne & Dick Grayson set off to find help in the pre-Flashpoint Gotham City. The emotional implication of these worlds colliding comes crashing down when Thomas Wayne confronts this world’s Batman, as father meets son! Plus, Alan Scott’s attempts to connect with The Green yield unexpected results, setting our team on a quest to escape the planet. And the cyborgs of Futures End engage in a battle to the death against the reimagined heroes of the Just Imagine Universe, while the city of Superman Red & Blue takes on the opposing forces from Generations! DC (W)King (A)Pagulayan, Paz (CA)Reis, Prado

Archie vs. Predator #1: America’s favorite teen meets the galaxy’s fiercest hunter! Archie & friends hit Costa Rica for Spring Break, where party games & beach games are soon replaced by the Most Dangerous Game! What mysterious attraction does the gang hold for the trophy-collecting Predator, & will the kids even realize they’re in danger before it claims them all? Dark horse (W)De Campi (A)Koslowski (CA)Ruiz

Runlovekill #1: Sought after by elements from her violent past, fugitive and assassin Rain Oshiro has just 24 hours to escape a barricaded city while trying to evade a military force determined to either capture or kill her. Image (W)Canete, Tsuei (A/CA)Canete
