Some IDW comics on sale include 30 Days of Night
Transformers, Star Trek, Wormwood, Spike, Fallen Angel,
Dr. Who, Scarface, Gene Simmons, Metal Gear Solid,
Clive Barker, Zombies vs. Robots, and CSI IDW Publishing is holding its first ever sale of comic books and graphic novels at its San Diego headquarters on Saturday, December 6, 10 am – 3 pm. This is a fantastic opportunity for comic book collectors to scoop up some real bargains and hunt down some rare titles they may have missed, including some limited editions and signed copies – all at bargain prices. There will be surprises and giveaways with every purchase.
A number of headline comic book creators will also be on hand offering free autographs of their work, including Ben Templesmith (
Wormwood, 30 Days of Night), Chris Ryall (
Clive Barker’s The Great and Secret Show, Zombies vs. Robots), and Chris Mowry (
Transformers).
IDW is offering the sale as a chance to thank fans for their continued support and for helping with the company’s phenomenal growth over the past few years, as it was recently ranked No. 4 comic book publisher in the United States by Diamond Comic Distributors.
The sale will also free up some space in IDW’s warehouse for the company’s expanded and exciting line up of titles in 2009.
“Our warehouse manager is literally buried,” says IDW’s Chief Operating Officer, Greg Goldstein. “After 10 years of publishing, it’s only natural that the boxes have piled up because of accidental print overruns, books that were set aside as office copies, books intended for reviewers and others earmarked for promotional purposes. Time to get them out of here.”
The sale will be held in IDW’s parking lot,
5080 Santa Fe St, San Diego, CA 92109.
IDW is offering new comics for $1 each (Reg. $3.99 cover). Titles include — subject to availability —
30 Days of Night, Transformers, Star Trek, Wormwood, Spike, Fallen Angel, Dr. Who, Scarface, Gene Simmons, Metal Gear Solid, Clive Barker, Zombies vs. Robots, and
CSI.
