Sorry if this has already been posted elsewhere, I looked briefly and may have overlooked it.

So Marvel is having select comic shops across America participate in A Marvel 70th Anniversary Party. If you do not know yet what this is, allow me to explain.

Starting at 9 (although i've read 10 and even 11 for some places), comic shops will be opening its doors to host A party honoring Marvel's 70th anniversary ending at midnight, This will include free cake, Marvel trivia with prizes, A chance to buy "Party Variants" of Marvel #1 and Marvels Project #1 and other special variants. There will also be other select contests and appearances decided by your local comic shop (if they are participating, Mine will have A Mary Jane look-a-like contest and appearance by the x-men).

So I personally just wanted to see how many people would be going to their local marvel parties, it sounds fun, nerdy and slightly dumb.
