Walt’s Pullbox – Easy Comic Book Pre-Orders & Subscriptions

How To Start Your Single Issue Pullbox at Walt's

What it is
This is our system for single issue subscriptions and preorders. With the Manage Comics app you can set up ongoing pulls, preorder special issues, and keep track of upcoming releases, all inside our webshop. (Trades, collected editions, and manga are handled through the regular store.)

How to start

1. Create an account in our shop and add your shipping address, without it we cannot process preorders.
2. Log in and open Manage Comics from our website.
3. Subscribe to your favorite ongoing series, each new issue will be pulled automatically.
4. Use the preorder option for one off issues or additional variants.
5. Check your account in Manage Comics anytime to see what we have already pulled for you and which invoices are open.

The Basics

🔑 FOC deadline
Orders need to be in by Saturday 16:00, Berlin time before the Monday FOC, Final Order Cutoff. Manage Comics shows Monday, we submit earlier to sort everything properly. Late orders are not guaranteed.

📦 Monthly box
We gather all your pulls and preorders during the month. In the first week of the following month you receive an invoice, once it is paid, we ship your stack.

📉 Monthly minimum
To keep a pull box active you need at least 3 issues or €15 per month. If you fall under the minimum two months in a row, we will close your box and cancel any outstanding preorders (already confirmed issues will still be invoiced).

❌ No double buying
If you preorder an issue in Manage Comics and also buy it separately in the webshop, that means you have two copies. The preorder still needs to be paid.

1. Weeks 1 to 4, we pull all your subscribed issues and approved preorders.
2. Week 4 or start of next month, we reconcile and prepare invoices.
3. First week of next month, your invoice lands in your inbox.
4. After payment, your monthly stack ships.

Tip, pay as soon as the invoice arrives for fastest dispatch.
