HAIRY MOVENGERS UNASSEMBLE!
Another MOvember has grown to an end and I would like to thank my fun-loving MOVENGERS teammates for helping to raise awareness of the Mens’ Health charity and for bringing in donations for our mustachioed super team. And thank you also to friends of FUNNYBOOKS who generously donated. FUNNYBOOKS has just chipped in a Small Business Saturday kickback bonus of $125 ($5 for each American Express Card that we accepted during Small Business Saturday) which brings us to a current team total of $933 (not too shabby). And even though MOvember is over, It’s not too late to get your donation in (and my OCD really wants to get that number to $1,000). To add a donation go to the FUNNYBOOKS MOVENGERS Team Page at movember.com. Thanks Again! And Congratulations MOVENGERS!
MOVE OVER MOVEMBER, DECEMBER IS HERE!
With MOVEMBER, FUNNYBOOKS FALLBACK SALE, The WALKING DEAD mid-season finale (!) and SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY all behind us now, I’m really looking forward to getting back to the “normal” business of Comics & Stuff, and I am very excited for this week’s Big 12-Hour New Comic Day! The store looks nice and there’s some great stuff coming out this week, and — Oh yeah — the SWITHEROO is on!
OH THE INHUMANITY!
SInce the first week of September, when DC’s Villains’ Month began, DC has been dominating the New Comic Action at FUNNYBOOKS. DC has held the “Premiere” New Comic Wall at FUNNYBOOKS for a full two months thanks to the popular Villains’ Month’s 3-D cover promotion and to well-crafted and best selling titles like BATMAN, FOREVER EVIL, SUPERMAN UNCHAINED, BATMAN AND SUPERMAN, SUPERMAN AND WONDER WOMAN, JUSTICE LEAGUE and even Vertigo’s SANDMAN OVERTURE. All that changes this week as Marvel reclaims the Premiere Wall with an impressive week of Comics & Stuff including FUNNYBOOKS’ top title this week, INHUMANITY #1 (which spins-out of the ending of last week’s INFINITY #6), and the return of PETER PARKER The AMAZING SPIDER-MAN!
PETER PARKER RETURNS?
One year after his death at the hands of of the SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN, PETER PARKER is back (At least that’s what the promotional material regarding today’s AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #700.1 says)! Today’s “Point” issue — which picks up the numbering where AMAZING SPIDER-MAN left off at #700 — is written by “First Blood” novelist David Morell and illustrated by artist Klaus Janson (look for 700.2 next week). For more SPIDEY action snag this week’s SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN #23 and SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN TEAM-UP #7.
THIS WEEK’S TOP TEN TITLES AT FUNNYBOOKS
01) Inhumanity #1
02) Amazing Spider-Man #700.1

NEW THIS WEEK!
Marvel’s INFINITY may be over but the crossovers continue in today’s GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY #9, SECRET AVENGERS #12 and AVENGERS ASSEMBLE #21 (which was misprinted last week). Meanwhile, The AVENGERS of Marvel’s ULTIMATE Universe face their biggest threat in CATACLYSM: ULTIMATES LAST STAND #2 (of 5), and the return of NIGHTCRAWLER continues in Jason Aaron ’s AMAZING X-MEN #2. Other items of note this week include DC’s BATMAN AND SUPERMAN #6 and TRILLIUM #5, Image’s VELVET #2, GHOSTED Graphic Novel (collecting GHOSTED #1-5) and JUPITER’S LEGACY STUDIO EDITION #1 which features Frank Quitely’s artwork in black & white as well as Mark Millar’s script and other bonus material.

CHRISTMAS SHOPPING BEGINS FOR REALZ
It’s ON! December means Christmas ,Christmas means Gifts, and Gifts means FUNNYBOOKS! This year FUNNYBOOKS offers more cool gift items than ever before. Unfortunately not everyone know about this. You can help us out this year in many simple ways. First: If people are shopping for a gift for you and they don’t know what to get you, suggest FUNNYBOOKS (and maybe even FUNNYMONEY). Second: Consider doing some gift shopping at FUNNYBOOKS yourself (there’s got to be someone, like a coworker or a friend, on your gift list that would enjoy something from FUNNYBOOKS). Third: Spread the word! Mention FUNNYBOOKS to your family, friends, co-workers, neighbors and even strangers whose conversations you are listening to. Let them know what FUNNYBOOKS has to offer… We’re open EVERY DAY, We’re easy to get to, Parking is simple, There’s hardly ever a line, we offer friendly and thoughtful service (I hope), We are a Small Business, and we have really cool stuff that everyone likes! We are all in this comic book thing together so please help spread the word where possible (we’ll even supply you with FUNNYBOOKS business cards to hand-out).
SMALL BUSINESS SATURDAY LIVES UP TO EXPECTATIONS
Thank You to everyone who Shopped Small at FUNNYBOOKS on Small Business Saturday! We saw some great people, gave great discounts all day long, and had a LOT of fun doing it. We appreciate everyone’s support for the annual event which has become one of our top three days of the year (along with Free Comic Book Day and the Fall Festival Street Fair). Thank you also to American Express for creating and promoting the event. We hope you will continue to Shop Small when possible this Holiday season. “Avoid the Mall and Shop Small!”
That’s All For Now. Hope 2 C U @ FUNNYBOOKS! – Funny Steve

INFINITY COMES TO AN END (ironic, isn’t it?)
Marvel Comics wins the New Comic Week Wars this week as it’s THANOS vs. everyone in INFINITY #6 (of 6), which easily tops the FUNNYBOOKS’ Thanksgiving Eve Top Title List (in fact, Marvel has such a nice week of comics that we even considered a “Switcheroo”).

Also look for new issues of KICK ASS 3 and POWERS from Marvel’s creator-owned ICON line.
SOLID DC WEEK
It’s the last New Comic Day in MOvember — which means your last chance to donate to the FUNNYBOOKS MOVENGERS Mustache-growing team — and the final wave of DC #25 issues including AQUAMAN #25, DARK KNIGHT #25 and SUPERMAN #25. Also look for the FOREVER EVIL tie-ins TEEN TITANS #25, and JUSTICE LEAGUE DARK #25, and two more ZERO YEAR issues, FLASH #25 and CATWOMAN #25. DC also puts out a bunch of new Trade Paperback collections and some nice new hard covers including the LOIS LANE A CELEBRATION OF 75 YEARS Deluxe Hard Cover, which makes an awesome addition to our growing Holiday Gift selection. Also from DC, Neil Gaiman fans can check out the SANDMAN OVERTURE #1 Special Edition (which will have to hold you over until OVERTURE #2 comes out … in February!).
IMAGE PLAYS WITH THE BIG BOYS
Image makes it’s presence known this week with the New WALKING DEAD #117, SAGA#16, PRETTY DEADLY #2, and Rick Remender’s BLACK SCIENCE #1 (with two covers and a blank cover) claiming four of the top 8 spots on FUNNYBOOKS’ weekly top title list. Also look for new issues of popular reads like REVIVAL, BEDLAM, and THIEF OF THIEVES. It’s certainly been the year of Image Comics!
SHANE DAVIS IS LEGENDARY
One of the special items FUNNYBOOKS received with this week’s batch of New Comics & Stuff is Legendary Comics’ SHADOW WALK Original Hard Cover, illustrated by Fan (and local) Favorite Artist Shane Davis (known for his amazing artwork on the SUPERMAN EARTH ONE Hard Covers). Shane isn’t the only FUNNYRAMA-4 Special Guest who’s been busy lately, Charles Paul Wilson III recently illustrated IDW’s WRAITH #1 (written by Joe Hill) and Amanda Conner wrote last week’s HARLEY QUINN #0 (both still available at FUNNYBOOKS). Now, if we could only find out what the Tom Raney guy is working on.
PIKACHU RETURNS!
FUNNYBOOKS is excited to announce the return of POKEMON CARDS to FUNNYBOOKS! We now have POKEMON B&W PLASMA BLAST Boosters (cool!) and POKEMON XY KALOS Deluxe Starter Decks in stock. While we were at it, we also snagged some YU-GI-OH cards and now have Yu-Gi-Oh SAGA BLUE EYES WHITE DRAGON Starter Decks and Yu-Gi-Oh SHADOW SPECTRE Boosters in stock and ready to go!
This Thanksgiving, we are grateful for many things including the fantastic community of fanboys, fangirls and fan-families that we have here at FUNNYBOOKS. We hope everyone has a safe and Happy Thanksgiving! – Funny Steve

Scott Snyder and Greg Capullo’s BATMAN continues to be the #1 selling title at FUNNYBOOKS every month and this week you can score the new BATMAN #25 which is a ZERO YEAR issue and has a pretty cool all-black embossed cover. Capullo fans may also want to pack an extra $80 if they want to snag today’s New JOKER B&W Statue designed by Capullo (or maybe you can add it to your Hanukkah or Christmas lists). The ZERO YEAR blackout also crosses over into today’s NIGHTWING #25, BATGIRL #25 and GREEN LANTERN CORPS #25. Meanwhile DC’s FOREVER EVIL story continues in today’s JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA #9, SUICIDE SQUAD #25 and FOREVER EVIL: ARKHAM WAR #2 (of 6).
SCORE A FREE THOR AND MORE!
SUPERIOR SPIDER-MAN #21, DEADPOOL #19, CAPTAIN AMERICA LIVING LEGEND #3 and CATACLISM ULTIMATE SPIDER-MAN #1 are the Marvel “must-haves” this week, along with the new THOR GOD OF THUNDER #15, which continues the well-liked “Marvel Now” THOR title. If you haven’t tried the new Marvel Now THOR, you’re in luck because beginning today on New Comic Day we will be handing out FREE copies of THOR GOD OF THUNDER #1 to everyone who stops by our little red brick comic shop (while supplies last). Verilly!
MORE BEST BETS
Lots of other great stuff today including Valiant Comics’ UNITY #1 which comes in multiple covers (including a blank) and begins Valiant’s biggest story yet (if you’ve missed out on the Valiant relaunch, remember, All Valiant back issues are now 50%-OFF). Also check out the 4th SCOTT PILGRIM in color Hard Cover, and IDW’s WRAITH: WELCOME TO CHRISTMASLAND #1 (of 5) which is written by Joe “Stephen King’s son” Hill and illustrated by STUFF OF LEGEND’s Charles Paul Wilson III (who was one of our special guests at last year’s FUNNYRAMA 4).
