AE49 Trial Cover.qxd

Shipping today is ALTER EGO #150, which is a big celebration of Stan Lee’s 95th birthday. Editor Roy Thomas has pulled out all the stops to give readers a wealth of insight into unknown areas of Stan’s career, including Ger Apeldoorn‘s amazing article on Stan’s various attempts to get out of comics from 1956-62 (and aren’t we all thankful he wasn’t successful!).

You can see a preview and order HERE!

The Merry Mag Sale is on! Up to 66% off all pre-2017 magazines!

BatMagSale

Now through New Year’s Day, all pre-2017 print magazines are 36-66% off! The older the magazine, the greater the savings. So if you’ve been waiting for a big annual sale from TwoMorrows, THIS IS IT!

SaleTable

The above is a general guide to the sale prices. There are a few exceptions (such as Back Issue #50 which had a higher cover price and extra pages, so it would fall under $5 instead of $4). And some issues are sold out, so please consult the individual item pages online.

HEADS-UP! We’re already running a couple of days behind on shipping due to high order volumes, and this sale will bring in many new orders, putting us further behind. So don’t delay, ordering if you need these in time for Christmas! We’ll do our best to get them out quickly, but the longer you wait to order, the longer it’ll take to get to you.

It’s GROOVY, baby!

Groovy_LRG

Mark Voger’s follow-up to Monster Mash is now shipping, and it’s GROOVY, baby!

Subtitled “When Flower Power Bloomed in Pop Culture,” GROOVY looks at comics, music, TV shows, and more areas that were influenced by the hippie movement of the 1960s, and features interviews with (and amazing photography of) icons of grooviness such as Peter Max, Brian Wilson, Peter Fonda, Melanie, David Cassidy, members of the Jefferson Airplane, Cream, the Doors, the Cowsills and Vanilla Fudge; and cast members of groovy TV shows like “The Monkees,” “Laugh-In” and “The Brady Bunch.” GROOVY revisits the era’s rock festivals, movies, art—even comics and cartoons, from the 1968 ‘mod’ Wonder Woman to R. Crumb.

This book is a fun departure from our comics-centric output, and just like Monster Mash, Mark’s hit this one out of the park. GROOVY is available to preview, and purchase in both print and digital editions now at THIS LINK!
