Forever Evil and Villains Month
We’ve got so much amazing stuff coming in this week that there is literally something for everyone. Here’s the lowdown on this Wednesday, September 4th!
Get ready, because this is a big one…
First off! DC Villains Month and Forever Evil!
Forever Evil is a 7 issue mini series and the first company wide crossover for DC in the New 52 Universe!
To compliment this industry wide crossover all DC titles for the month of September will be change to villain solo stories with 3D covers!
There has been quite about of controversy about these covers, as demand turned out to be way above the print run and many shops were allocated and will receive only a small percentage of what they ordered.

Let’s just forget about all that nonsense and tell you that this Wednesday at noon we will have all 13 TITLES WITH 3D COVERS AVAILABLE AT COVER PRICE! That’s right, you can just walk into the shop and pick up anyone of the following titles for only $3.99:
- Action Comics #23.1 CYBORG SUPERMAN
- Batman #23.1 JOKER
- Batman and Robin #23.1 TWO FACE
- Batman The Dark Knight #23.1 VENTRILOQUIST
- Detective Comics #23.1 POISON IVY

Different titles will have different levels of scarcity that will vary both locally and nationally. The Joker book alone goes for between $10 and $20 dollars on Ebay already. To prevent speculators we are limiting the number of copies people can purchase to two of each title. We are no longer taking any preorders, but if you did have a preorder with us, rest assured your books will be there this week! (Please come in and pick them up!) A majority of the titles will have over 40 copies hitting the table Wednesday, so don’t think you’re out just because you can’t be at the shop at noon! Each book is a stand alone story, so this is a great time to come and try something new! There will also be standard non 3D covers of each book at $2.99. How did we pull this off while some other shops are struggling? We’re consistent.
Next up! X-Men Battle Of The Atom starts this week!
X-Men Battle of the Atom is a 10 part series bringing together all the currents storylines that have been building up in the X-Titles. The X-men from the future come to tell us the X-men from the past must go back home! It’s fair to say that this past year has show us some of the best X-Men stories in years. Bendis, Aaron and Wood have put the X-titles where they need to be, now it’s time to slam them all together! Marvel X-men Editor Nick Lowe is an old customer, and he came in this weekend and was just beaming with pride about how well this series turned out.The series will run through all 4 core titles (All New X-men, Uncanny X-men, X-men and Wolverine and the X-men.) along with a two issues ‘Battle of the Atom” Title by Bendis and Cho to book end it. This week you get parts one and two!
X-men Battle of the Atom #1 $3.99 (part one)
All New X-men #16 $3.99 (part two)
X-men Battle of the Atom #1 $3.99 (part one)
All New X-men #16 $3.99 (part two)
Both books will have some awesome limited variants, like this one by Granov!
Next up! Infinity #2!
Infinity #2 comes out with a bunch of cool variants attached to it! The first issues was really tight and the Avengers and New Avengers crossovers helped to flesh it out and put it into context. I’m really looking forward to seeing how this series plays out! We’ll have Young Baby Variant available at noon at cover price!
But wait, there’s more!
Star Wars #1 ! An eight issue adaptation of George Lucas’ original screenplay! It even uses early conceptual art as the basis for it’s look! This is one of those things that’s not only too good to be true and can only happen in comics!
“Before Star Wars, there was The Star Wars! This is the authorized adaptation of George Lucas’s rough-draft screenplay of what would eventually become a motion picture that would change the world. Annikin Starkiller is the hero . . . Luke Skywalker is a wizened Jedi general . . . Han Solo is a big green alien . . . and the Sith . . . Well, the Sith are still the bad guys. High adventure and derring-do from longer ago, in a galaxy even further away!”
Wow.
We’ve also got a slew of other great stuff for you! God is Dead #1, Jonathon Hickman’s new title from Avatar! Batman Black and White #1, the return of the Eisner award winning anthology featuring top artist and writer’s take on Batman in bare bones black and white! Hoax Hunters #10 Phantom Variant!
