Magic the Gathering Fever!

Our first official Magic Legacy Tournament went well; Scott Sheffield was the overall winner (winning an Underground Sea).

We are planning more Legacy format tournaments for the future (around every two to three months).

Our weekly Magic tournaments include a booster draft every Tuesday as well as Friday Night Magic (standard format) every Friday.

Special Magic events include the Magic M10 Pre-release tournament (sealed deck) on July 11th and the M10 Release tournament (sealed deck) on July 18th.

Come out and have some fun!

Summertime at 4C8B
With a successful Punchout tournament we'll be making sure to host both casual and hardcore video game tournaments on a monthly basis. Magic nights are still going strong with draft night Tuesdays and Friday Night Magic. The new MTG core set is also coming out soon as well. Dont forget, June 20th will be our legacy tournament, so prep that legacy deck, and bring it on in. As always, stop by in the afternoon all week and play a casual game of magic or any of our other in-store games.

Gameing aside it's also been an excellent quarter in comics too with nail biters like Old Man Logan and Kick-Ass blowing your mind and leaving you wanting more. A rise in popularity of everyone's favorite merc with a mouth, Deadpool also makes every Wednesday, a Wednesday to look forward to.

Stay tuned for more exciting details and upcomming events.

24 Hour Comics


24 Hour Comics
Saturday October 18th 6:00am
to Sunday October 19th - 6:00am

Hey everyone. 24 Hour comics day is approaching again and this time I'm really excited because of a number of reasons...

1. It's at 4 Colour 8 Bit this year.
2. It starts at 10am instead of 6pm so I'm not extra tired at the end.
3. It's not on Canadian Thanksgiving this year so more people can attend.
4. It's on my birthday.
5. And last but not least We have some very special guests!
(This I'll get to an another post.)

For those of you who have never heard of 24 hour comics it's a wonderful event where creative procrastinators like me put aside an entire 24 hour day to focus and produce their own personal 24 page comic.

It's not a competition, or a race. Just a personal marathon of creativity. We're inviting you to come in and sign up in the store. It's free to attend all you require is whatever media you choose to make your comic in. Digital, inks, paints, crayon. No rules just the guideline of 24 pages in 24 hours. You may have to take care of your own meals, but we're working diligently on getting this covered for participants.

Please do sign up early so we know how much space and resources we'll need to have prepared for artists.

Hope to see you out
-Kevin
