COVER ART: From Batman: Year One by Frank Miller and David Mazzucchelli. CONTENTS: The excerpts in this comic are from the following DC collected editions. THE GREATEST BATMAN STORIES EVER TOLD As you are probably aware, Batman is the superhero right now. The Caped Crusader is enjoying a renewed popularity due to the success of the Batman movie (which only adds to his already prestigious 50th Anniversary in 1989). This edition reprints some of the best Batman stories ever, from 1939 to the present! By Bob Kane and Lou Schwartz. CAMELOT 3000 TRADE PAPERBACK If science fiction's your cup of tea, or if you enjoy sword and sorcery adventure (or both!), you'll find a wealth of entertainment in Camelot 3000. This imaginative storyline tells of a future time when aliens invade the Earth in the year 3000. As legend would have it, King Arthur returns to the realm of the living when he's needed the most. The aliens are led by Morgan Le Fay and Arthur must gather his Knights of the Round Table to defeat her! By Mike W. Barr and Brian Bolland. JUSTICE LEAGUE: A NEW BEGINNING The Justice League was formed in the early 1960s as the chief peace-keeping force in the DC Universe. Their adventures have thrilled a generation, but sadly came to an end in the late 1980s. But their absence was only fleeting as they returned to adventures filled with action, excitement, and more than just a few laughs thrown in for good measure! By Keith Giffen, J. M. DeMatteis, Kevin Maguire and Al Gordon. NEW TEEN TITANS: THE JUDAS CONTRACT The Teen Titans have also been around since the 1960s, and in various team incarnations have battled evil on all fronts. In 1984, the Teen Titans regrouped. This trade paperback reprints what was to become a major turning point in the careers of these "New" Teen Titans. The "Judas Contract" storyline saw a trusted member of the team betray them to their enemies, and also marked the last time Dick Grayson would go by the name Robin, the Boy Wonder! By Marv Wolfman and George Perez. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. …

Shopbeschreibung

For a good portion of the 1990's, our family was interested in the idea of entering the used book business. We are all avid readers, book lovers, and book collectors who cannot pass a bookstore without popping in. Family trips to the library and our local used bookstore were a regularity while growing up. With each of us having interests in different genres (with a little overlapping here and there), we cover a lot of bases. The thought of having a store of our own was appealing, and the hunt was on - both for stock and a location. We thought to combine under one roof many different things that would appeal to readers and book lovers. Not only used books, but some new items as well. Bookmarks (to ward off dog-eared pages), bookends (to keep those out-of-control collections under control), bookplates (to label books on the "Can I borrow that?" circuit to ensure that they always found their way home), book repair tape (to lend a helping hand to collectors with tattered favourites in their collections), and so on. With an interest in book-themed knick knacks as well, we had two sides to our would-be business: books and knick-knacks. Hence the business was born. In the early part of 1998 we bought a commercial property, and in the summer we first opened our doors in a storefront in Uxbridge, Ontario, Canada. With start-up stock consisting of a garage full of books hand-picked for just such a venture that we purchased from someone who changed their plans, we were in business. For several years we operated in this storefront, growing our business and learning about the industry and the backbone of it - the customers. It was very satisfying to be present at the end of someone's book quest, as we were quite often. Many a time we heard shouts of joy from somewhere in the shop as customers happened upon just what they'd been looking for (oftentimes for quite a while). At other times, people would approach us with bits and pieces of information that they remembered from long ago favourites in hopes that we could at least help them come up with an author or title to help in their search, which we often times did, with the book in hand. And when we couldn't come up with anything on our own, we would pick the brains of other customers in conversation, or turn to the internet for help for them. For us, quality and selection of stock go hand-in-hand with customer service. One isn't much good without the other. But times, people, places, and lives change and after several years in our storefront we made a change of our own - in 2004 we relocated to the internet. Now a home-based business in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada, we are gradually bringing our inventory online here. We carry used paperbacks, hardbacks, and magazines for both adults and children. We have thousands upon thousands of books that are not yet listed for sale on the internet, but are gradually making their way there.…
