Comic a Day Giveaway: Part 1

[AndrewG]

So I buy and read a lot of comic books. And while I give many away locally to schools and little league I prefer to give the single issues so that leaves me with a bunch of trades and ogns that need to go to a good home.

So in my attempts to spread the love, have a fun little contest and also get more copies of my own comic in people's hands here's what I'm gonna do.

Every day for the next week or two I'm going to give away a trade/ogn and a copy of The Gathering to a US resident who hasn't worked on The Gathering (sorry gang). All I ask for in return is that you tell us what you think of the comic in the thread and do a short review of the ogn/trade you get.

How to win. Simple. First person to meet the requirements of the 'challenge' wins.

The ogn I'm giving out today is Revolver.

I love comics because of the art,
The pacing,
the episodic nature,
the artistic view of others and how people talk about them.

I only know of Super Spy.. And after a lookup : 3 Story: The Secret History of the Giant Man and 2 sisters. Plus he lives about a mile or two from me.

Matt Kindt won the Harvey Award (with Brett Warnock) for the book design of Alan Moore and Melinda Gebbie's Lost Girls Graphic Nove

Revolver is really good.

Look for the panel that Lemire inked. Yes, he only inked one panel.
