We had a great Swap Meet with hundreds of people stopping by. I got some great stuff for myself, and I got to take the family shopping around the booths too, which made for a fantastic event. Thanks to all who came out and braved the heat. Thanks to NEO-TACC<\/a> for making it all possible. <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We got a little press too!<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

WINSTON MERCH!<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The big news is we\nfinally got some Winston pub glasses and stickers made!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Enjoy a beer and a\ncomic with this spectacular pint glass! Only $11.99. (they say they are\ndishwasher safe but I doubt it!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are also three\ndifferent styles of Winston stickers at $2.00 each!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks to Dee Piotrowski <\/a>for the artwork! <\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MARVEL COMICS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This is a great week\nfor Marvel Comics, and it starts with the highly anticipated House of X #1 by\nJonathan Hickman! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This book is the start of a multi year plan to reinvent the X-Men franchise before the movies begin in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Hickman will write two\nbooks side by side, this book and Powers of X,  both of which will run six\nissues each and be bi weekly. (Meaning you will get a book a week for twelve\nweeks.) Issue #1 of Powers of X will be out next week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve read both books\nand they’re really good. Creating new ground with lots of hints at the past.\nBeautiful books as well. This is one that will have some shelf life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The One Shot Marvels\nEpilogue is a pretty big deal.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This is a follow up to\nthe classic MARVELS story, and it’s even written by Kurt Busiek and drawn by\nAlex Ross. Remember that time in the 70’s when the X-Men went ice skating at\nRockefeller Center and got attacked by Sentinels? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a different\ntake on that story. It’s only 16 pages (plus supplemental material.) but look\nat this promo artwork:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

History of The Marvel\nUniverse looks like a fun project as well. Mark Waid is writing the definitive\nhistory of the Marvel Universe in six issues. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

After the announcement\nthis weekend that the new Thor movie is going to be starring Natalie Portman as\nThor, I just know we are not going to have enough Valkyrie Jane Foster #1’s\nthis week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

All new ongoing series\nwritten by Jason Aaron and Al Ewing (Immortal Hulk!).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It looks like we’re\ngoing to have another Marvel death. Rocket Raccoon is going to meet his fate\nsoon, and it all begins here in Guardians of the Galaxy #7 by Donny\nCates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Fearless #1 will\nfeature an amazing line up of female characters, like Captain Marvel, Invisible\nWoman, Storm and Jessica Jones. Millie the Model too. Expect a rotating line up\nof heroines in this three issue mini series. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

DC COMICS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

DC does have one big\nwinner that’s worth mentioning, Sean Murphy returns to write and draw the new\neight issue Batman Curse of the White Knight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A follow up to the\nprevious White Knight series, which had some of the best art of 2018. What if\nJoker was the hero and Batman was the one who was insane. At least from the\nJoker’s point of view…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks again for the\nsupport at the swap meet!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
