The holidays are coming up, True Believers, and your shopping days are running out. Soon, very soon, you'll find yourself looking desperately for the perfect gifts for the comic lovers among your friends and families...but believe me, now is the time to act!
For the second time ever, I am offering books from my personal collection to the Wolf Web--at astonishingly deep discounts! Don't let that light wallet discourage you, either. I'm slashing prices to the adamantium-laced bone, and that means savings you can literally take to the bank!
First up come Volumes 1-4 of gallavantin' Grant Morrison's remarkable run on Doom Patrol!
Collectively collecting issues 19-50 of the groundbreaking series, this collection boasts such memorable storylines and characters as "The Painting That Ate Paris!", the Brotherhood of Dada, and the phenomenal Flex Mentallo! Thrills, chills, and existential spills await the reader brave enough to turn these pages, friends, and it can all be yours for the low, low price of just $40! This collection retails for $79.96, and that's before sales tax! Enjoy them at just half the price, each gently read only once!
Next up: Volumes 1-7 of Green Arrow!
Green Arrow first burst back onto the scene with 2001's "Quiver" storyline by Kevin Smith (yes, that Kevin Smith!), as told in Volume 1 of this collection, which brought ornery Oliver Queen back to life...or should I say "larger than life"? And you get it all, friends, including best-sellin' Brad Meltzer's arc "The Archer's Quest" and...well, to be honest, half this series has been written by Judd Winick. That, I feel bad about. So I'm gonna extend the hand of righteous fair trade to you, brother, and price all seven--COUNT 'EM!--volumes at only $50.00 cash. This collection retails for $108.77, so I'm practically giving it away at less than half the cost! It's like getting the Winick stuff for free...because that's the only way I could sleep at night!
If DC's roster of cripples, freaks, losers, and non-powered rabble-rousers doesn't tickle your pickle, then how do you feel about Earth's mightiest heroes? That's right, Marvel's vivacious Avengers are comin' your way in Volumes 1-3 of The New Avengers!
These trade paperbacks chronicle hit writer Brian Michael Bendis's run on issues 1-15, starting with the super-powered prison break that brought the team together and setting the stage for the events of the Civil War mega-crossover! This set retails for $44.97, but it can be yours--to give or to keep, and I won't tell!--for only $30.00.
What's that? That's nowhere near as good a deal as my other sets? Look again, Bright Eyes! Nestled snugly in the lower right-hand corner of that fantastic photo is Captain America: Winter Soldier Volume 1, written by none other than Criminal's Ed Brubaker! And I'm going to give it to you free with the purchase of the New Avengers set! Volume 2 of the collected Winter Soldier arc was released today, so now is the perfect time to catch up on what's been going on with the rumored return of Bucky!
And finally, for the fan who's had enough of the superhero thing in general, here's the ultimate gift: FroshKiller's Punisher MEGA-PACK!
Featuring Volumes 1-5 of the Marvel MAX Punisher series, you can thrill to the brutal adventures of everyone's favorite vigilante, Frank "800 Confirmed Kills" Castle! Gratuitous Garth Ennis writes the Punisher like no other, with enough wacky twists and stylish ultraviolence to breathe new life into a tired concept. This set alone retails for $75.95; how much would you expect to pay? How about $50.00?
I can already hear you booing. Let me sweeten the pot: The Punisher: Born by Ennis, chronicling the true, untold origin of the Punisher, retails for $13.99. Volumes 5 and 6 of the Marvel Knights Punisher series collect "The Streets of Laredo" and "Confederacy of Dunces," also by Ennis, and retail for $17.99 and $13.99 respectively. The collected volume of the Marvel MAX Fury series, also by Ennis, retails for $15.95. And finally, Bullseye's Greatest Hits, featuring the origin of Bullseye as told in good fun by Daniel Way, retails for $13.99. That's $75.91 of additional value, bringing the entire Punisher collection pictured above to $151.86...and it can all be yours for $75.00. You are now freaking the fuck out!
If that deal is too much for you, you can have the MAX Punisher stuff for $50.00 or the Punisher grab bag for a mere $35.00, but act now, True Believer--the calendar is ticking!
All of these books are available for pick-up in the West Raleigh area by arrangement. Limited delivery options available. PM for more information, or send a handy-dandy e-mail to jlhamilt(at)gmail(dot)com!
