New Humble Bundle is up, and it has some really good stuff in it:
Humble Comics Bundle IDW Creator Showcase is chock-full of a wide variety of creator-owned titles across many genres, some of them award-winning.
Fixed tiers of $1, $5 (more titles added next week), $10, and $18, with a bonus $25 level for a signed physical issue (shipping cost not mentioned yet).
There's the excellent Comic Book History of Comics by Fred Van Lente and Ryan Dunlavey available at the $1 level (I just went and ordered the paperback version of this a couple of days ago, when Chapters had a flash 20% off sale when buying with MasterPass, and still consider it money well spent) and you can read
notes about their sources here on their website (sadly, they seem to have taken down the samples at some point in their redesign).
Also, there are several volumes of the late Darwyn Cooke's (
Wikipedia) Eisner-winning adaptations of Donald E. Westlake (
Wikipedia) writing as Richard Stark's Parker mystery/thrillers, and it turns out there's a Little Nemo adaptation by Eric Shanower (
Wikipedia) as well. These IMHO would be worth the price of admission just for their beautifully stylized art, even if they didn't also have solid stories backing them.
And things like Locke & Key and a whole bunch more. Needless to say, this is an auto-buy for me.
Again, a really brief descriptive blurb for some reason, so you'll have to go over to the actual page to see the contents.
