Hey folks, at the request of member(s)* of our community here, I am going to start a thread where people can post info about bargains for comics new and old. Maybe it's a sale on digital versions at Dark Horse or Comxology. Maybe Amazon has a classic trade at a blow out price. Maybe Lone Star, Mile High or some dealer is having a sale. Maybe a local dealer is having a big sale and there are other members within commuting distance of you. Maybe someone is having a BOGO type sale on trades or comics or toys. It's all good to give other members here the heads up.
However, this should not be people selling their own books, or books for people they know, nor should it promote auctions on ebay or similar auction sites. Other than that, if you know of a deal you want to share with other members of the community...go for it.
-M
*credit where credit is due, it was hondobrode who suggested it first, and I recall us having a few threads along those lines at the old place, but would prefer to consolidate it into one thread here.

Great idea for a thread. I really only do a big shop once a year anymore, on Black Friday. I'll be sure to post what I find though.

I know you're trying to do a nice thing here, but this many images per page makes viewing the page very confusing and difficult.

I'll delete those posts then. It's multiple listings because of a lot of breaks in what they're offering. I'll go back and revise it. Normally it's a very simple run.

Thanks, hondobrode. That's much easier on the eyes and RAM  And it's really great of you to have started this thread and made folks aware of this sale. |

I buy way too much on sale (don't tell Susan), and if I can help my fellow board members (heh) save a nickel or pick up something they otherwise wouldn't have, that's a win for all of us. |

It's not every issue of all of these series, however. Several issues are on sale for .99, but not all of them. Ok, keeping it simple, the Comixology Batman sale includes Batman v1 & 2 Detective v1 & 2 Superman/Batman Batman : the Dark Knight Returns Batman : the Long Halloween Batman : Dark Victory Legends of the Dark Knight Batman : Shadow of the Bat All Star Batman and Robin, the Boy Wonder Batman : Gotham By Gaslight Batman Black & White Batman / Superman / Wonder Woman : Trinity Batman : Cacaphony Sale ends 7/28 |

the Comixology Viz Summer Sale includes One-Punch Man If you have any familiarity with the shounen tropes of manga, I'd HIGHLY recommend trying this series out. thirdeyecomics.com/featured/sat-72614-third-eye-throwdown-tent-sale/ I would liken it to being a comedy version of what Astro City is to superhero comics. The art is on another level, as well. For reference, here are some panels there were put together into gifs. At first people were wondering why Murata had spent a good chunk of some chapters "wasting" a bunch of pages on giant spreads until someone put them together and found this,,, |

 Just added - Essential Batman Collections Sale! Heck of a deal, all @ $ 2.99 each ! Darn it, I wouldn't have bought a couple of things if I knew I could've gotten these, but still. Some nice perennials here. Figured out how to do small pics now.  Now THAT's a good looking post! |

I'm genuinely interested now and knew virtually nothing about this as I'd never heard of it before, and your description is intriguing. Nice visuals as well. |
