He made off with “numerous graded slabs as well as sealed Pokémon product,” according to the store.

Joel Brown, 20, is accused of breaking into Gaming Giant, a family-owned collectibles store in Fairfax, and taking off with the stack of valuable cards on the night of March 14 — while wearing a Spider-Man costume that covered his face, according to authorities.

I can’t tell if this thread is a place to celebrate creativity and irony on behalf of this young man or …? He could have chosen to dress in all black with black ski mask.

It is almost good news. No one killed, the cards were probably insured. Maybe even an advertisement for the trading cards. I’d let him go.
