At the beginning of 2022, BAD IDEA comics made the announcement that all of their retailers are fired. “Retailer TLDR? HAPPY NEW YEAR! You're all fired. Applications are now being accepted for the new BAD IDEA Destination Store program. Good luck! We're rooting for you!”. POP ROC is one of the retailers worldwide that still sells BAD IDEA comics.
