Hello to all you fine Grand Geeks and Gatherers out there. I hope your week was wonderful regardless of whether you were able to attend SDCC or not. For me it was quite the event, one not so easily forgotten nor missed. Every year it seems to become an event far too large of an extravaganza and yet every year I still vow to make it and attend despite my feelings on the crowd to be dealt with. Its an event that has become a July tradition for me as much as summer comics reading has become. And with that said, let’s see what else I might suggest for you in upgrading your own summer reading list, eh?
Belladonna: Costume Change #0
Writer(s): N/A
Artist(s): Mike Costa, Ignacio Calero
Cover Artist(s): Christian Zanier
Publisher: Boundless
Synopsis: “For the first time ever, we offer some of our greatest Costume Change sets from years past, as single covers. We get constant requests to buy singles, so we cracked open what few sets we had left and now they are available in VERY limited quantities individually! Each will ship in a bag and board, and in all cases less than 100 copies remain, sometimes much less! Every cover is drawn by the master himself, Christian Zanier!”

My hat is off to publisher’s that do issues like these. Many of us in the comics reading world, especially in the indie realm, love our variant covers and artwork. And Boundless brings us something completely amazing in this ‘costume change’ concept for a zero issue. Covers drawn by none other than Christian Zanier in a compilation issue for your viewing pleasure. This has collector’s item written all over it!
Available in digital format from http://www.boundlesscomics.com/ and https://www.comixology.com/. Hard copy format available at your LCS!

Boundless really knows how to give a certain type of fan what they want, but truly I believe anyone can appreciate a cover like this that is a compilation of variants. Sure, many of them are risque in their look but in the end it is still artwork that can be adored by so many. And just like with Belladonna, Ivory’s many cover poses will be seen within this issue for all that adore her character and her unique figure.

Cheesecake is on the menu this week, Gatherers and Grand Geeks. Boundless provides many for your reading needs as well as your visual ones! Take or pick your choice of Ivory or Belladonna. Your money’s worth comes back to you with interest when you invest in these lovely compilations. And what’s even more amazing about them is that they are available at the touch of a button on your desktop keyboard or on the screen of your tablet or phone. But you being the devoted followers you are will instead heed my advice to show your support for local businesses by going down to your local comic book store and picking up the hard copies themselves. Read them and share with your friends. Start a conversation and be sure to leave a comment or two. But most importantly, remember…GGG!
