What is Bishart Kids Club
Established sometime around 2017 with a diehard handful of Ben’s biggest supporters, the Bishart Kids Club today is constantly growing and evolving into something not even Ben could have predicted. Set up as a monthly recurring membership fee, with bisboxes full of club only exclusive items shipping quarterly, the very best part about the club, is the people within it…Between the incredible 24/7 members only group chat, exclusive club only comic variants, comic con meetups, dinners, studio visits and wing nights with group members from all over the world, real lifelong friendships among fellow collectors and comic fans have been born and the Bishkids have become a real family – warts and all, just like your real family!
