New 30% Off Sale + Marvel Star Wars Comics Checklist
Howdy!
I want to begin top day by wishing my beloved wife of the past 37 years,
Nanette, heartfelt birthday greetings. Those of you who have been blessed
to meet Nanette know that she is the one who keeps balance in my life,
and that it is the force of her love that binds our entire family together.
Nanette has been quite ill for the past ten weeks, battling an
antibiotic-resistant bacteria she contracted (while being treated
for another illness...), called C. diff. This illness has made her
life miserable, and she has been struggling. Her illness seemed to be
in remission, but it came back in full force last week, which has been
especially discouraging. Any kind message you might want to post to her
Nanette Furman Facebook page,
would be most appreciated.

In other news, we took the time at the end of last week to put together a
cool checklist page on our
website
of a great many or the Marvel STAR WARS
(2015) variant editions. This list is far from complete, as it does not
include the dozens of retailer editions to #1, but it does include all of
the official Marvel variants that they released to all retailers, plus our
variants. I was aware that there had been quite a few STAR WARS late printing
variants published, but even I was surprised by the coolness of their
diversity! Follow this

to see our new STAR WARS (2015) landing page.
STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS - SHATTERED EMPIRE #1
Retailer Summit Variant Edition
One question we have been receiving this morning is as to whether we have any
more free copies of the
STAR WARS: FORCE AWAKENS - SHATTERED EMPIRE (2015) #1
retailer Summit Edition
available. Surprisingly, we do have a few copies left
in stock. If you hurry, a can still request a free copy, after only placing any
minimum $30 order with us. I thought these would be long gone by this morning,
but I guess I underestimated the power of the opening weekend of the NFL...
On a related topic, our new 30% off STARWARS! Is also still in effect for you on
all ten million of our back issue comics and magazines. This generous 30% off
discount applies to all of our
Marvel,
DC,
Dark Horse,
Image, and
Independent Publisher
comics, as well as all of of our
Golden Age,
Silver Age,
Bronze Age,
and Copper Age titles. Only new comics, a few variants, our
CGC's, and books
are not a part of the codeword sale. That having been said, all of our books
are priced for you right now at 30%-60% off, with those steeply reduced
prices posted for you right on our website. Enjoy!
BATMAN: ARKHAM KNIGHT -GENESIS (2015) #1 JIM LEE VARIANT
Moving on to new business, our head new comics buyer, Will Moulton, managed to
obtain a few extra copies of the recent
BATMAN: ARKHAM ASYLUM GENESIS Jim Lee
variant edition.
We are going to go ahead and also offer you a copy of this
cool variant for free, but the minimum order to qualify will need to be $50,
as our supply is quite small. Let us know in the "notes" section of our order
form if you would like to have a copy included in with your order. Please
be aware, however, that each of our free items is a separate requirement,
so if you want both the
STAR WARS
and the
BATMAN
giveaways, you will need
to place a minimum $80 order (after all discounts...). Thanks!
I will now move on to offering you a few more exceptionally scarce items from
the estates of Middle Earth Publishing Co-Founders, Dennis Wakabyashi, and
Steve Allen. As I mentioned a couple newsletters ago, I purchased Steve's
remaining prints and portfolios from his widow after he passed away, in
1980. Dennis sold me his remaining artwork three years ago, just before
his passing. There are some items from their collections that I will not
part with for sentimental reasons, but my own estate concerns force me to
let go of at least a few pieces from my Middle Earth collection. Here is
what I have for you today:
NATIONAL CARTOONISTS SOCIETY: PORTFOLIO OF FINE ART S&N (1978) #1245/1500 at $999.95
Jack Kirby Print from Portfolio
Will Eisner Print from Portfolio
Barry Windsor-Smith Print from Portfolio
This incredible portfolio was from Steven Allen's collection, and contains
individually signed (!) pieces by
Jack Kirby,
Wally Wood,
WILL EISNER,
John Severin,
Burne Hogarth,
Jim Steranko,
Johnny Hart,
Barry Windsor-Smith,
Jerry Robinson,
Milton Caniff,
Harvey Kurtzman,
Russell Myers,
Jeffrey Jones, and
Al Williamson.
I thought it might be best to sell this portfolio as individual
signed plates, but I ultimately decided to first offer it as a complete
set. If you have $999.95 to spare, this would be an incredible addition
to your collection. I am keeping the copy of this astounding art collection
remaining in my collection, that I picked up for myself when they
first came out...
