Winter One-derland Comics Blog Giveaway! The Tick #1 PLUS our Emma Frost Tribute!!

Welcome, dabblers, to abbracadabbling comicsblog's Great Christmas Comic Book Giveaway! We like to call it our Winter One-derland, because this is the Giveaway you've been hearing about. Every Monday and Friday from now through Friday, January 1st - New Year's Day - we'll be giving away one Brand New, completely Near-Mint copy of a Number One issue from a recent comic book series! abbracadabbling's Mission is to get a comic book into all of our reader's hands, because we know that reading comics is magical. And besides that, it's just plain good for you.
Winter One-derland is the Christmas Giveaway that takes our Mission seriously. There's no better time to start reading comics than the present, and no better place to begin that reading than with the First Issue of a new comic book series, especially during the Holiday Season. So whether you're a longtime comics fan who visits their Local Comics Shop - or as we say in the biz, the LCS -- every Wednesday like clockwork or if you're a brand spankin' new comics newbie, Winter One-derland puts everyone on equal ground. All you've got to do to win the day's featured Number One Comic is send us an e-mail.
Of course, your email has to contain a correct answer to the day's comic book or super hero I WONDER? The questions we ask won't be easy, but no matter what your level of superhero know-how might be, a little elbow grease and good browser will be the absolute most work you'll have to do to find the right answer. When you've solved I WONDER? and you're convinced your answer's what we're looking for, just email it in. And the first dabbler who gets their right answer to us WINS the Number One Comic Book on the blog that day. (Just remember to include your mailing address so we can get you your comic book to you. All expenses paid by your favorite comicsblog, natch!)
That's it. That's all there is to it. Sound good? Wanna get crackin'? Great, so do we! In case you don't already have our email addy stored in your Hotmail, we've got it at the bottom of today's Winter One-derland blog. Everything else is pretty much self-explanatory, but you're welcome to ask us any of your questions -- or just tell us how very, very awesome we are -- by leaving us a Back Issue.
Without further adieu, then....time to enter the magical, comical world of abbracadabbling's Winter One-derland, Day Two!
I WONDER? What's Her Real Color? (Dec 11th, 2009)
Our NUMBER ONE
Dabblers, you know how this works: the first comicsblog reader or guest to send us an email with the correct answer to December 11th's I WONDER? will receive a brand new, near-mint copy of New England Comics' Mangalicious Tick #1! Here's what you can expect in this genre-bending Tick tale:
The Tick returns and embarks on his newest adventure, Manga! The Tick crosses the International Date Line in this satirical look at the manga art form! While investigating a disturbance in The City, The Tick confronts a new nemesis, The Setting Sun! Now trapped in another dimension, The Tick must fulfill an ancient prophecy, and save Arthur, The City, and the World!
Good luck with our I WONDER? tribute to Emma Frost, the Uncanny X-Men's fantastically frosty White Queen! Winter One-derland will return on Monday for Day Three and an all-new chance to win. See you on the other side of Sunday, dabblers!
abbracadabbling would like to thank New England Comics for their support and for today's Number One: The Mangalicious Tick: The Rise of the Setting Sun #1!!
