Free Peanuts comic book coming next year
One of my favorite holidays each year is Free Comic Book Day, a day on which comic book shops throughout the English-speaking world give out free special-edition comic books. Free comic books – which of those words is not to like? Well, this year Boom Studios will be offering a …
Free shipping even for foreigners
After I posted earlier about the advantages of Amazon Prime, I got an email from one of the blog’s foreign readers, presuming that free shipping was only good for US addresses, which is correct. But that leads me to two thoughts: If you’re looking for free shipping everywhere, try The …
Not actually the Peanuts comic book book cover
For some reason, Amazon is showing as the cover for the upcoming book collection of the new Boom! Studios Peanuts comic book the cover of issue zero of the comic… including the $1 price. Alas, that’s not the real price. The listing also starts of the “About the Author” with the note …

How many things can they crowd in a Nook, anyway?

Following up on yesterday’s post about the iPad/iPhone version of A Charlie Brown Christmas, I thought I should note that there are now a number of Peanuts strip collections available for those devices, orderable through this app. At this point, it looks like there’s a couple 1950s books and a …
