Regular visitors to this site will have earlier seen a banner under the WOM blog title asking to help keep TwoMorrrows Publishing alive by making a purchase directly from them. Since then, I received an order from them with a letter explaining their predicament. Like other independent companies, they have been ripped off by the inept and greedy bastards at Diamond Distributors. Recent news has reported that they are looking for a buyer to bail them out, but if and when that happens, TwoMorrows and dozens of others have been left on a precarious financial lurch, to the point where a few have already announced they are out of business because of this train wreck.
If you've purchased anything from TwoMorrows before, be it from a newsstand, comic book shop or via mail order, you know that these folks publish some of the best, highest-quality books and magazines on the topic of comics and popular culture that are being produced today. For that reason, I consider them damn near a National Treasure.
With that, on behalf of TwoMorrows, I'm asking that you take a look at the letter and scanned flyers below, and if you're anywhere near interested (and how can you not be?), visit their site and make a purchase, now matter how large or small, print or digital. For instance, if you missed buying a print copy of THE CHARLTON COMPANION -- which is now commanding high prices for used copies from various sellers -- you can get an immediate download of the digital PDF for only $14.99.
And don't forget to try out CRYPTOLOGY, their newest magazine that covers all things monster, including movies, comics, toys and collectibles, all with a retro-spin. Admittedly, I have a bit of an ulterior motive for this particular request, as I am on the writing staff of the magazine, and I'd sure hate to see it disappear!
Thanks for your support, and as Stan Lee was famous for saying: Nuff Said!
