Kyle Roberts and Matt Price talk about comics, including Conan: The Cimmerian #1, Marvel 1985 #3 and Final Crisis: Rogue’s Revenge #1 in a video at NewsOK.tv.

See former employee and current DC Comics writer Sterling Gates with Speeding Bullet’s co-owner Matt Price, as they review comics for The Oklahoman and NewsOK.com in this video.

Today, Speeding Bullet turns 10 years old. In 1998, Matt and Annette decided to give up the relative safety of jobs at the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette and return home to Norman to buy the comic-book store Matt had worked at in high school.

The store, which had been the Norman branch of the used bookstore/comic store “The Archives” from 1989-1997 and “Millennium Books” for about a year at that point, was then owned by Lenny Brumley, now the board president of the Toy & Action Figure Museum in Pauls Valley. Annette and Matt both grew up in Oklahoma and wanted to return home at some point. They were also interested in working in the field of comics. Thus, Speeding Bullet Comics was born.

Matt and Annette would like to thank all the staff, customers, friends and family who have made the last 10 years so much fun.

Thanks to all the fans who came out for Free Comic Book Day! A great time was had by all, and thanks to HeroClix judge Jake Langham, who demonstrated how to play HeroClix for approximately eight hours! Way to go, Jake!

Speeding Bullet again gave out more than 1,000 comics, with the “Iron Man” giveaways being among the most popular, no doubt due to the excellent “Iron Man” movies, in theaters now.
