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 (although we realize today's Wednesday and that we're running late, but no one expected to have had a problem with the local Bumbles) 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 of 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!
I WONDER? (Dec 7th, 2009)
NUMBER ONE COMICS for MONDAY DECEMBER 7th
Yes, we've got TWO Number One comics to choose from today -- and that means that we'll have two Winter One-derland Winners for December 7th's I WONDER? Just be sure to tell us which comic you'd like when you send us your email! First dabbler to email gets first pick, second runner-up gets whatever they didn't choose. Have fun with this, read your comics, and finish up those lists for Santa. Christmas is almost here!
(And so is Friday, when we'll be back with our next trip -- and an all-new First Issue -- to Winter One-derland!)
Special thanks to Marvel Comics for today's Winter One-derland Number Ones: Spider-Woman #1 by Brian Michael Bendis and Alex Maleev, and the all-new Web of Spider-Man #1 (Volume II)!!!
