March 31, 2007

Check out the new Featured Item of the Week! Batman Through The Ages Action Figure Boxed Set.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day everyone!

Check the update to the Featured Item of the Week!

Also, I've finally gotten the chance to re-work the home page to now feature all of the latest headlines!! You'll still see everything in the News Section as well along with all of the past headlines as well - but now when you visit Krypton HOME, you'll get the latest headlines immediately!  Keep checking back for updates and refinements to the graphics and layouts as time passes.

The original content will soon be available under a newly-tooled ABOUT section.

March 11, 2007

Just made a quick update to the Coming Soon section - the Lard Lad Simpsons set has been canceled for now - keep checking back to see when/if it becomes available.

March 4, 2007

Greetings to all!  Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend...

I've made some updated to the Coming Soon section - there are now pictures of the various items housed on this site so no more broken links to external sources!  There's a brief rundown of the specs on most of them but the picture really speaks for itself.  There are also links provided to click and reserve any of the items there directly with Krypton!

Lastly, I will likely not have the opportunity to update the Guestbook feature for the next week or so - in the interim however, if anyone wishes to "sign" the Guestbook, simply drop an e-mail to Artie at krypton611@aol.com and we'll make sure it makes it onto the Guest Log when it's re-launched.

More cool stuff to come soon - keep checking back and make sure to join the mailing list! (We'll be doing e-mail-alerts of site-updates in the near future as well!)

March 2, 2007

IMPORTANT NOTICE:  A distasteful and inappropriate entry was made to our Guestbook section today.  Thankfully, it came swiftly to our attention and we immediately removed the offensive material.  We apologize to anyone who may have been privy to said links.

Unfortunately, the individual who decided to make such an entry has no consideration, tact or class.  And as always, one bad apple tends to ruin it for the rest...


So, due to this incident, we have temporarily removed the Sign Guestbook function from the site and once we have reconfigured it, all new entries will now be forwarded to the Web Master for review and approval prior to their being posted to the site.

So, again - we apologize to anyone who may have been offended and we will let everyone know when the Sign Guestbook function is again active.  Thank you all of the GOOD APPLES out there for your positive and encouraging feedback.

Sincerely,

Your Web Master on behalf of Arthur Palomba, Jr.

March 1, 2007

Hope everyone enjoyed the big NYC Comic Con this past weekend!



A lot of really sweet stuff on the horizon for 2007 - can't wait to see it all reach the shelves!


Not much to report in the way of updates; I'm still stuck in Florida (I know, poor Webmaster!) - but I went ahead and posted Krypton's hours of operations in the Store Policies section.


I'm looking forward to having some more fun with this site later this month when I'm back in NYC - thanks to everyone for all of the positive feedback about the site!

February 19th, 2007

Just want to give a shout-out to another loyal customer, Joe Fleishaker Troma's "Biggest" Action Star.

February 14th, 2007

Hope everyone is enjoying a pleasant Valentine's Day!



However, just in case anyone of us dropped the ball, one of Artie's customers may have a solution!


Check out our second Customer's site link:

www.statenislandmassage.com

What better way to make up for missing Valentine's Day (or maybe just to get a head-start on next year) than giving the gift of a relaxing, rejuvenating massage!?!?  Support another local professional AND a fellow-comic-fan and check out what Scott has to offer!


Lastly, I fixed the "Store Policies" link - now it's up and posted.  Please take a moment to read these policies - thanks!


More to come soon!

February 13th, 2007

Greetings Art-o-philes.  Your humble Web Master is still down south in Florida (80 degrees here today - absolutely dreadful) so the updates are coming slow (same old song, eh?).  However, I wanted to remind all of the men out there to get your @$$es in gear if you haven't already to NOT FORGET TOMORROW!!!!


That's right, tomorrow is Wednesday, February 14th - you know what that means....

NEW COMICS DAY!!!!

(What, is there anything else going on tomorrow??)

Links, Coming Soon and the FEATURED ITEM OF THE WEEK! (I'll be putting a spotlight-featured-item-of-the-week thing sometime soon as well...keep checkin')

Also, I've hashed out some sweet facades for the site which feature various incarnations/interpretations of the BIG "S" - will configure them as soon as I can...

Also, watch for the NEWS SECTION to be featured as the HOME PAGE of Krypton SINY in the near future.

Lastly (but not leastly), I want to welcome the site's FIRST Customer-Cross-Link! 

Check out Anthony Leto's site at www.Krypton33.com!  Check for a banner-link on the Favorite Links Page soon.

Enjoy the rest of the week and for those of you who didn't drop at LEAST a C-NOTE at Artie's today, shame on you!

February 3rd, 2007

10:44PM EST!  Welcome!  We are pleased and proud for the OFFICIAL launch of KryptonSINY.com - the on-line home of the one and only, Krypton Comics of Staten Island, New York!!

I - your webmaster - would like to wish the Elder of the House of Art-El (i.e., Arthur Palomba, Jr.) all the best in 2007 and hope this website helps propel him to his best year yet!

This site will be continually enhanced and tweaked as I get the opportunity - including unique page themes with various artists and depictions of the "BIG S" as well as more content, more links and an extremely enhanced gallery & virtual tour (check out the current 'beta' slideshow of shots from Krypton from January, 2007 here).

Make sure to sign up for the
mailing list so you're advised when these additions are made!

Please take a moment to read this site's dedication and visit www.ChristopherReeve.org and continue the legacy of the true Man of Steel by supporting The Christopher Reeve Foundation.  Also, an important site that every man should check out:
http://www.prostatecancerfoundation.org/

Everyone involved in the development of this site hopes you enjoy it and that Krypton Comics continue to FLY HIGH FOR YEARS TO COME!



Krypton's quality service and solid deals have fostered customer-loyalty so much so that the scribe
of what you are now reading, as well as the designer of this site is also a long-time customer!

And as any other regular customer will tell you, if you GOTTA HAVE IT,
Artie is the
man who will make sure you get it and get it at the best possible price!

Krypton Comics & Your Webmaster dedicates this site thus:

To all those lost in the September 11th attacks, their loved ones and those
whose efforts demonstrated that there are Supermen and Superwomen among us.

To the memories of Christopher and Dana Reeve: may their examples of
strength, determination and love be a beacon unto all mankind.

And finally, this site is respectfully dedicated to Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster,
the creators of Superman, and to Jack Kirby, the Father of Marvel Comics;
their contributions can never be fully appreciated.
