In this week’s Comixology (at Amazon) sales, we have some sales that aren’t officially on the deals page yet: Black Panther, Suicide Squad, Justice League, Hellsing.
Where did the New Releases and Sale pages go?
(Disclosure: If you buy something we link to on our site, we may earn a commission.)
In case you’re having troubles with the new UIX (a LOT of people have been):
- The new releases page is here.
- The “Comics Deals” page is here.
- The Kindle Deals comics page is here.
For whatever reason, Amazon has failed to update the Deals page at the usual time. This is happening more frequently since the (presumably) final round of Comixology layoffs. We expect that things will eventually get updated, but since people are understandably a little put off by this – and to demonstrate that there are sales going on and some of this isn’t necessarily the fault of the publishers, we’re going to cobble together a listing of some of what we know to be on sale right now.
Marvel
We suspect some Black History Month programming here, starting with Black Panther
- The Don McGregor era (AKA, pre-Priest), where Don McGregor was primary author… with a notable Kirby interlude. The best way to navigate the multiple editions is:
- Black Panther Masterpieces Vol. 1 – The original and ground breaking Jungle Action run by McGregor / Rich Buckler / Billy Graham / Gil Kane
- Black Panther Epic Collection: Revenge Of The Black Panther – Kirby’s run, the ’88 Gillis/Cowan mini, the Marvel Premiere follow-up to the first series
- Black Panther Epic Collection: Panther’s Prey – Dominated by Don McGregor’s return on the Marvel Comics Presents serial with Gene Colan and Panther’s Prey with Dwayne Turner.
- The Chrisopher Priest era – with art by Mark Texiera, M.D. Bright and Sal Velluto (among others)
- The Reggie Hudlin era (yes, “House Party” / “Boomerang” Hudlin) – with art by John Romita, Jr., Scot Eaton and Denys Cowan (among others)
- The Ta-Nehisi Coates era (yes, from The Atlantic) – while the volumes are numbered consecutively, it’s split into two listing
- The John Ridley era (Yes, Oscar-winner Ridley from 12 Years a Slave) – with art by Juann Cabal and German Peralta
- The Eve Ewing era – We think V. 1 is discounted slightly?
DC
Looks like a Suicide Squad sale.
- Suicide Squad: The Silver Age (i.e. pre-Amanda Waller and villains)
- Suicide Squad ’88 – ’92 – Waller enters the picture and establishes the Squad as we know it today
- Suicide Squad ’01
- Suicide Squad ’11-’14
- New Suicide Squad ’14-’16
- Justice League Vs. Suicide Squad
- Aquaman / Suicide Squad: Sink Atlantis
- Suicide Squad ’16-’19
- Suicide Squad: Bad Blood
- Suicide Squad ’21-
- Suicide Squad: Hell To Pay
- Suicide Squad – Blaze (Black Label)
- Suicide Squad – King Shark
- Suicide Squad – Get Joker! (Black Label)
And a Justice League Sale
- Justice League of America ’60-’87 – The original
- Justice League of America ’87-’96 – This is, at least initially, the Justice League International / Justice League Europe run with Keith Giffen/J.M. DeMatteis / Kevin Maguire. BWA HA HA HA HA HA
- JLA ’97-’06 – Not on sale?
- Justice League of America ’06-11 – Initially launched as Brad Meltzer / Ed Benes and eventually got Dwayne McDuffie (who was undercut by editorial)
- Justice League ’11-’16 – The New 52 Geoff Johns era, initially with Jim Lee art.
- Justice League ’16 – ’18 – The Bryan Hitch (as writer) era with rotating artists
- Justice League ’18-22 – It’s probably easiest to call the most recent incarnation the Scott Snyder era, as he launched the volume. So many rotating artists here.
- Justice League Infinity ’21
- Justice League: World’s Greatest Superheroes
- Justice League: Endless Winter
Dark Horse
There is doubtless more on sale and, Amazon permitting, we’ll be back at the usual time at the end of the week with the real links. Until then, browse away with the partial listings we were able to cobble together, quick and dirty.
