    The OK Comics 'Bag For Life' the KAPOWCH! should be available from tomorrow.

    It'll probably hold about 50 comics, it's got an adjustable strap, velcro and zip fastenings. And they're only £1.99.

    Enter the KAPOWCH! Competition. Email a photograph of you or somebody prominantly displaying a KAPOWCH! The person who sends in the strangest picture, in the most interesting or remote place will win an as yet unspecified prize.

    It wasn't my idea, it was The Collectors.
    As was getting the bags made in the first place.

    Well, the bags have arrived and unfortunately they've been vastly increased in price to a whopping £1.99.
    All current OK Forumites will get one for free next time they're in the store.

    was a nice surprise to get my comics in a big black bag rather than a small white bag :-)

    Wonder if I'd get away with going into FP and saying "nah, it's ok, I've brought my own bag...".

    Midnighter, you should wear the bag wherever you want. I'd be interested in seeing the reaction of other comic shops. Maybe we'll start a trend.

    Work is moving offices and I loaded mine up with tons of accumulated crap (like a dozen jiffy bags, notepads, file dividers etc.) AND the half-dozen comics I bought today :)

    Light and sturdy is my review of it - you could easily roll it up and stick it in another bag if you need to transport stuff around!

    Grabbed mine today, there pretty niffty they are. Someeven came into work "Schuh" on the ladies floor sporting one. I think this is Oks plan to take over the world starting....
  5.  
    I can't help thinking that's all part of a grand marketing campaign
    will there caps and beanies next or shirts and underwear?

    also who said that they weren't that strong, I recon if as long as you don't fling it at jagged rocks, use it to carry your knife collection or use it to protect yourself in a gun or knife fight it'll be OK.

    They've sold out. We should have more next week.
    If you want to order anything it's probably best to email us, I check my email more often than I check the forum. Better still, give us a call.

    This is a toughie! I am trying to think of strange & remote places I have been to, to enter!

    Castaluccio (Umbria) is the strangest place I have been to. Its like something from Deliverance and has a population of 14!!
  10.  
    The Castaluccio Tourist Board have just written to thank you for that.
    What's gonna be in the Kapowch? David Jason's severed head? Twenty water damaged copies of Dazzler #8? OKComicsman curled up into a tiny man-huddle?
    Whoever wins, I gotsta know. Because, unless Whitby is now considered strange/interesting/remote I ain't gonna be winning.
