Comic Book Blog browsing on a Sunday night
Like most of the country, it’s absolutely freezing outside and there is absolutely nothing to watch on TV. So that’s why I’m Blogging on a Sunday night. After I post this I plan on working on the Website and read a bit more of my Essential Luke Cage Volume 1. Dig It! On with tonight’s links:
- Are you picking up The Complete Peanuts from Fantagraphics? Then you may recognize the artwork from this weeks New Yorker Magazine. It’s done by the artist Seth, who does the cover designs for Peanuts.
- The Marvel Masterworks Website is reporting that Uncanny X-Men Masterworks Volume 6 is scheduled to be released February 20. I noticed that Marvel Masterworks: Ant-Man/Giant-Man Vol. 2 HC (Variant Vol. 91) is due out that day, too. No word on if that book will get pushed back, but I’m guess it will. to my recollection, I’ve never seen two Masterworks come out in the same day. Also, Marvel Masterworks: Thor Volume 7 (Variant Volume 96) is due out in May. That book will collect Thor #153-162, 224 pages and have an introduction by comic book historian, Arlen Schumer (The Silver Age of Comic Book Art).
- The Complete Sam & Max collection Surfin’ the Highway, by Steve Purcell and Telltale, is back in print. In addition to all of the content of the 1995 original, the new edition contains 25 pages of content developed over the last two decades, bringing the page count to 197 with 45 pages in full color. The collection is available in two versions: a paperback edition, and a limited edition hardcover. Both versions are available now for pre-order purchase. The paperback will start shipping on February 25, and the hardcover is scheduled for a Spring 2008 release.
- Alan Gardner, Daily Cartoonist, reports on some upcoming daily strip collections coming out including Garfield, Zits!, For Better or For Worse and one of my current favorites, Pearls Before Swine
- More Digital Goodness: Gordon McAlpin, Comixtalk, gives some publicity to the free, yes free, first issue of the Multiplex eBook collection. It’s 36 pages long, and it collects Multiplex #1-24 plus a couple of guest strips by McAlpin, himself. Nice way to plug your book, eh? Remember free is good so go check it out.
- Review: Collected Editions Blog, on Green Lantern Corps: The Dark Side TPB. I have to be honest, I have not picked up Sinestro Corp yet. I’m waiting for the Hardcovers to come out. I think I may be this book up (and Recharge, too) to get me ready for the War.
