Links du Jour: Die Hard trailer, Gentleman-Thief, and Forever stamps

Adventure

Mystery

  • I've always loved the "gentleman bandit" concept, whether it's Robin Hood, or V from V for Vendetta, or any number of dashing highwaymen in film and literature. The juxtaposition of a guy who can charm you while taking all your stuff is strangely appealing. Which is why I'm thankful for Bookgasm's reminder that Arsène Lupin, Gentleman-Thief (along with other French pulp novels) has been re-released and is ready for my enjoyment.

Other Comics News

  • Top Shelf is holding a massive sale on its graphic novels. You have spend at least $30 to get the deal, but you can get tons of great books for $1 or $3 each. Even the titles that don't get those discounts are cut back significantly, like 20% off of books like Lost Girls and From Hell.

Writing is Hard

  • With the new postage increases coming up, writers may be confused about how much postage to put on their submission SASEs. The post office has the solution: Forever stamps.

30 bucks of Top Shelf stuff? Easy.

2/3 of it went to James Kochalka stuff I hadn't realized existed (or else I would already have them).
