Man I love blogging about comics. I also love going to signings for comics. Recently, I did the Justin Jordan Dead Body Road signing and got a chance to hang around Justin for a while and was bugging him about Luther Strode, Dead Body Road, and the preview he did of Spread at NYCC. We covered the basis on how much I appreciate him and his work so far but we kept going back to Spread.
You could tell it was something he was jazzed about. I did tell him I run a speculator web-site and up until this point could not find copies of the convention teaser. He said to shoot him am email and he would send me copies. So I did. Happy to say that the copies came in today and they look even better than the online preview.
So getting to the point. I will be giving away copies in the coming weeks, closer to the announcement that Spread will be coming out from —–
Keep your eyes peeled for your chance to get a copy when I get more news on the announcement.

Just wanted to take a quick second to wish everyone a Happy Holiday and a Merry Christmas. I missed out on wishing a Happy Hanukkah. Needless to say, I wish you many happy returns (in life and in your flipping.) You guys have made my dreams come true by reading this blog, all 257,000 reads so far this year (not bad considering it started in March.) We have been rated in the top 100 comic book blogs according to Technorati (in the top 60 at one point.)

So from the Comic Flipper family, happy holidays, Merry Christmas, and lastly, thank you for your support.

Hey Guys,

I have been running in the side bar a selection of site reader ebay auctions. The ones that show up are at random. The original requirement was to put CHU black Friday in the title. I have since updated it to where now you just have to put comicsheatingup.net in the body to get them to show up on the side bar. Continue reading “Comics Heating Up Reader Ebay auctions updated”

End of the year means tax time is coming up. A lot of retailers not only have to pay tax on their sales but their purchased inventory sitting around. So a lot of retailers have end of the war sales. Bargains and finds abound. Continue reading “Good Picking Dollar Bin Style”
