30% Off ALL Dark Horse, Image, IDW Graphic Novels at Midtown Comics
Welcome to a spicy new week of comics!
Did everyone have a fabulous Halloween weekend? It was quite beautiful here in NYC, until the clouds opened up and the rain poured down in the evening! All of Midtown's staff were still in the spirit though (including my boyfriend Bobby and I -- we went as Claire and Charlie from LOST), along with some of our customers -- check out the pics here. If you're missing Halloween already (like I am), you can start getting ready for next year with our sale of 50% off ALL Halloweencostumes and accessories!
Nifty Stuff: This week we will finally see Norman's true Dark X-Men in action, with Dark X-Men #1. Featuring fan-favorite baddies Mystique and Dark Beast, it's guaranteed to be an entertaining read. In Batman and Robin #6, we will FINALLY discover who is under that Red Hood! Big fan of Charlie Brown? Then the Peanuts 60th Anniversary Book TP is a great book to add to your collection -- or would make a lovely gift for a fellow fan! Spread the love. Still in the horror mood? Then check out the latest in the Locke & Key series by Joe Hill and Gabriel Rodriguez, Locke & Key Crown of Shadows #1. Just don't read it alone at night! Mauahaha. Lastly, Justice League The Complete Series DVD hits stores on Wednesday, featuring 15 discs of Justice League animated enjoyment.

REA'S A-1 PICK
WALL-E #1 Did you love the Wall-E movie? Then you are sure to love this! By Teen Titans Go! writer J. Torres comes the new Wall-E comic by Boom Studios! Back when there were other robots around to share in the trash compacting biz, Wall-E would shirk his duties and instead go about collecting interesting bits of junk. But once his fellow robots start to break down, Wall-E has to learn to pick up the slack -- otherwise Earth may be doomed for good! - Rea
