Fantom Comics

Big Week! True, we only have two Civil War books for you (Cable Deadpool #31 and CW: Young Avengers & Runaways #2), but there's lots of other titles out there that you shouldn't ignore.

For instance, we're getting the soft cover edition of the 9 11 Commission Report. I've flipped through this book. It's very well done. The book is simply the commission’s report in a drawn novel format.

Boys #2 is also coming out. #1 was amazing. It's Powers meets Top 10, with the hard-core style of Preacher writer Garth Ennis. This has management's highest recommendation.

We're also getting additional copies of Alan Moore's hugely controversial work Lost Girls. This book features Wendy from Peter Pan, Dorothy from Oz and Alice from Wonderland fame as grown-ups. No fan of Alan Moore can miss this.

Other noteworthy new releases this Wednesday include: Justice #7, Ultimate X-Men Annual #2 and Snakes on a Plane #1.

Also, Wizard #180 comes out tomorrow. For all you premium subscribers, you should stop by for your free issue, if nothing else.

After the huge success of our SIMPSONS TRIVIA CONTEST (check out PICTURES from the event), Fantom Comics will host its 2nd trivia contest: BUFFYVERSE on Saturday, September 16 and Sunday, September 17.

GRAND PRIZE: $500 worth of Fantom Comics merchandise
1ST PRIZE: $50 worth of Fantom Comics merchandise
2ND PRIZE: a hearty handshake

How the trivia contest works:
We'll run the semi-finals every half-hour on Saturday the 16th, from 10:30am till 8:30pm. Depending on how many entrants we get, you'll be pitted against anywhere from 1 to ?? people in a trivia fight to the death.

The semi-final winners from Saturday will return at (high) noon on Sunday the 17th to fight it out for the right to be crowned the Greatest Buffy/Angel Expert in the metro DC region (this will look great on your resume), and walk away with over $500 worth of Fantom Comics merchandise.

And even if you're not the competitive sort, stop by to check out the contest. There's nothing quite like seeing Buffy buffs try to one-up each other.

How to enter the trivia contest
To register, simply fill out this ENTRANCE FORM and email it to fantomcomics@gmail.com. If you're having trouble opening the link, email us your name, email address, phone number and the times on Saturday that are best for you and those that are the worst (we'll do our best to place all contestants in the most convenient time-slot). We'll reply to you by email to confirm your entrance.
