FREE/BARGAIN - Comics - 2015

[ATDrake]

Just a reminder that two bundles with comics in them have been updated and are ending in the next few days:

Humble Underground Bundle presented by Last Gasp ends on Wednesday the 29th at 11 AM Pacific Time.

They've added Justin Green's Musical Legends to the more-than-average tier, along with a couple of old-school photography books (including one co-authored by William S. Burroughs (Wikipedia)). I read this in paper from the library a long time ago, and it's a very nifty set of mostly rock'n'roll biographies done in cartoon format, which were originally published in Pulse! magazine.

The Dynamite Heroes Ultimate Bundle from StoryBundle ends on Thursday the 30th, and if you sign up for their newsletter or are already subscribed, you get Project Superpowers: Blackcross #2 as a bonus freebie.

The weekly Marvel True Believers sale additions bring it up to ten books.
https://www.comixology.com/Marvel-Tr...Sale/list/6134

The Avengers Collections sale is expanded into an Age of Ultron sale ending 5/3/15. It combines 24 singles with those ten collections. The only new to saledom (that's a word, right?) books are What If Age of Ultron 1-5.

The normal sale page has some new foreign sales, including a new freebie.

I thought I was good at finding all the random freebies, but it appears that this preview somehow slipped my ~weekly searches for two years.

New Humble Bundle is up, and it's for:

Humble Kids Comics Bundle from a variety of publishers.

Lots of really good stuff in it. Usagi Yojimbo alone would be worth the price of purchase, and there's also Howtoons (a nifty educational series), and some things from Robert Kirkman and Frank Cammuso (who did a very fun adult-level fairy tale noir series a while ago), an Archie comic (well, technically, a Betty & Veronica comic), and lots more, including an interesting-looking GN about plate tectonics from No Starch Press.

Tiers as follows (current better-than-average is just under $5) with more to come next week:

Name your price for Axe Cop Vol. 1, Howtoons: [Re] Ignition Vol. 1, Build Your Own Website: A Comic Guide to HTML, CSS, and WordPress, Spaghetti is NOT a Finger Food (and Other Life Lessons), Betty & Veronica's Princess Storybook, Uglydoll: Eat Dat!, Super Dinosaur Vol. 1, and The Incredible Plate Tectonics Comic: The Adventure of Geo.

If you pay more than the average price, you'll also get Maddy Kettle (Book 1): The Adventure of the Thimblewitch; Grown-ups, the World, and Me!; Monster on the Hill (Book 1); Usagi Yojimbo: Yokai; The Stink Files, Dossier 001: The Postman Always Brings Mice; Skylanders Vol. 2: Champions; and The Only Living Boy #1.

If you pay $15 or more, you'll receive all of the above plus The Misadventures of Salem Hyde, Book One: Spelling Trouble; The Lunch Witch; and Lumberjanes Vol. 1.

Well worth it at any tier price, IMHO, with good stuff at every level.

The latter freebies, from the Sale page, are:

Candy Mountains Vol. 1

Alice et sa fille Maya se réveillent dans une chambre d'hôpital désaffecté aux murs suintants d'humidité et rongés de moisissures. Comment ont-elles bien pu arriver là ? Une seule chose est certaine : la mort rôde dans les couloirs... matérialisée sous les traits d'un colosse sanguinaire digne de votre pire cauchemar.

Un huis-clos cérébral et haletant.

Radiant Vol. 1

Seth est un aspirant sorcier de la région des Pompo Hills. Comme tous les sorciers, c'est un « infecté » : un des rares êtres vivants ayant survécu au contact des Némésis, ces créatures tombées du ciel qui contaminent et déciment tous ceux qu'elles touchent. Son apparente immunité lui a fait choisir une voie qui lui semblait toute désignée : devenir Chasseur et combattre les Némésis.
Mais plus que ça, Seth souhaite s'engager dans une quête qui dépasse la simple chasse aux monstres... Entouré d'une faction de sorciers, il parcourt le monde à la recherche du Radiant, le berceau présumé des Némésis, sous l'œil terrible de l'Inquisition...

FREE COMIC BOOK DAY is less than 2 days away

1. What is "Free Comic Book Day?"
As the name implies, Free Comic Book Day is a single day when participating comic book specialty shops across North America and around the world give away comic books absolutely free to anyone who comes into their shops.

2. When is Free Comic Book Day?
Free Comic Book Day is held the first Saturday in May each year.

3. Are they really free?
Yep!
Different shops have policies on how many free comics you can receive, but you will receive at least one free comic if you enter a participating shop location. Check with your retailer for their policies and plans for FCBD.

4. Is every comic book store in the world doing this?
If you're asking about convenience stores with a spinner rack of comics in a corner somewhere - the answer is no. This event celebrates the independent comic book specialty shops, thousands of which exist in North America alone. Each one is unique in its community, with a style and personality all its own, and each one carries a full line of comics, graphic novels, toys and related products.
While we hope every one of these shops will take part, each shop determines on its own whether or not to participate. You can check our shop locator for a comic shop near you.....
