Have you heard yet of:

If not, click on that image above and check it out.  The basic concept is: Diamond Distributors isn’t going to be shipping comics out on that one week of the year, so indy books have this one chance to earn a place on the new release shelves withOUT mainstream interference!  WHOOT!

AQ is gonna do its part, and you can check out our super-cool plan HERE.

And here’s the best part repeated:

When ICBW hits, BOOKS 1-5 will all be out, and all of them are ready for ordering right this very minute! These books are 52 pages each and only $3.99 cover price, which beats the heck out of any 52-page mainstream comic price.

Let’s Make a Deal

Any Retailer that would like to receive free books as a sampler, simply contact me at davebaxter [at] sonofhowell [dot] com and tell me you’re interested. No strings attached, I’ll ship off a copy of whatever books are ready as a free sampler for you. Right now that’s Books 1-3. I hope to rush 4 and 5 to be print-ready by early November so I can send y’all the whole 5-book shebang.

These books should be available via Ka-Blam’s direct-to-retailers COMICSMONKEY.COM, however, if CM isn’t up and running in time for ICBW, retailers can order the books through me using the email address above, rather than directly through the IndyPlanet.com site, for the discount rate of $2.99 per issue. Any retailer that orders 30 or more issues, of any assortment, will get free shipping to their store, anywhere in the US.

Order must be placed by Thanksgiving to ensure they arrive by December 30th. Though, hell, feel free to order up until the big 12/30 deadline, I’ll ship out the books soon as I can, one way or the other.

I would also be remiss not to mention that these Ka-Blam editions of AQ conatain BRAND NEW illustrated prose stories and comics written by Roach himself. Yup, the main dude is contributing brand new exclusive material to these edition of AQ! I know I’m in love
