perpetual_motionI know I said I wanted to give descriptions of everything, but it hit 90 here the last two days, and we have no A/C, so it is simply too damn hot for me to give a fuck, so some stuff doesn't have descriptions this time. If you want more info, I'll provide it in comments.
I'm going to start compiling shipping lists tomorrow, and I'll post when I'm ready for everyone's addresses and the like. If you're just showing up, have a look at this post and here. I haven't had the chance to go through and cross out what's taken just yet, but feel free to ask, and I'll double-check my master list.
Joker -- 1 trade [hardback] -- $5
(This is a one-shot by Brian Azrelleo [however you spell it) playing with the Joker [and some of other Bat's other rogues] in a mildly more realistic context. Very interesting and weird.)
The Pro -- 1 trade -- $5
(Garth Ennis, his hate-boner for superheroes, and a stripper turned superhero. Absolutely inappropriate in the best way.)
Batman: The Killing Joke -- 1 trade [hardback] -- $5
(If you don't know what this is, I can't help you. 25th Anniversary Edition with fancy new colors.)
Power Girl -- 1 trade -- $5
(I'm not actually sure what this is. It seems to be just a random assortment of Power Girl stories. I think I bought it assuming it was the first trade in the Palimotti/Connors run. Don't think I ever read it.)
Marvel Zombies (Original Run) -- 1 trade [hardback] -- $5
(There's a slice on the dust cover. My best guess is it was at the top of the box from the distributor, and the box cutter went a bit deep.)
Transmetrpolitan: Back on the Street, Lust for Life, Year of the Bastard, The New Scum -- 4 trades -- $20
Green Arrow: Quiver and Sounds of Violence -- 2 trades -- $10
(Oh, Kevin Smith, you were talented before you were a hack.)
Daredevil: The Devil Inside and Out Vol. 1, Vol. 2 -- 2 trades -- $10
The Losers, Vol. 1, Vol. 2 -- 1 trade -- $5
Fallen Son: The Death of Captain America -- 1 trade -- $5
Rose -- 1 trade -- $5
Stupid, Stupid Rat-tails --1 trade -- $5
(These are recent books by Jeff Smith, who did Bone way back. Standalone stories, but I figured someone might like the pair.)
The Umbrella Academy: Apocalypse Suite and Dallas -- 2 trades -- $10
Battle Pope: Genesis, Mayhem, Pillow Talk, Wrath of God -- 4 trades -- $20
(These are the colorized trades. Also, it is gloriously wrong, over-the-top, and funny as hell. The Pope is such a dick.)
Astonishing X-Men: Gifted, Danger, Torn -- 3 trades -- $15
(The first three trades of the Whedon run, which I really enjoyed.)
Alias, vol 1-4 -- 4 trades -- $20
(Loved this series, which is about Jessica Jones, former superhero, and not Sydney Bristow. Fantastic writing and a murky art style that works really well to showcase that Jess is pretty messed up but trying to be better than her problems.)
Hellboy: Seeds of Destruction -- 1 trade -- $5
Northlanders: Vol 1 -- 1 trade -- $5
Fray -- 1 trade (full comic) -- $5
(Whedon's comic about a futuristic tiny chick who battles vamps with an axe-stake. Never let it be said the man doesn't know what he likes.)
Preacher: Gone to Texas, Until the End of the World, Proud Americans, Ancient History, Dixie Fried, War in the Sun -- 6 trades -- $30
(Those are the first six trades in the series, just so you don't have to look it up to double-check.)
100 Bullets: First Shot Last Call -- 1 trade -- $5
(First arc of the series.)
Powerless -- 1 trade (full comic) -- $5
(A mini from Marvel about a world where there aren't superheroes, just guys at a shrink's office.)
Batman: The Greatest Stories Ever Told -- 1 trade -- $5
(A compilation of greatest hits, basically.)
Batman: Chronicles: Vol 1 -- 1 trade -- $5
(First six or eight Batman comics ever printed. Old-school hilarity all the way.)
Batman: Knightfall, Part 1 -- 1 trade -- $5
(The first part of the "Batman gets snapped in twain by Bane" arc.
That's it, folks! Don't forget, shipping's on your end. I'm just bundling everything up and getting it out the door.
