It was uncanny how he got me two things I just had to read
one being GOING ROGUE: AN AMERICAN LIFE by Sarah Palin
While this may not be a comic book in the more strict definitions, it is definitely comical!
And in keeping up with the theme, he got me SHANNA THE SHE-DEVIL by Palmiotti and Gray!
This was something I was planning on reading when it was coming out, but forgot about completely and am so glad to see it on my trade shelf!
In short, Zeromus you rock and I hope the Czech Republic makes you an archduke of some sort while you are there.
Oh excellent, I didn't realize they'd be coming so soon. You actually have one more small thing on the way, as well!

Got my present today! And by today I mean my dad just noticed a box inside the door at 10:30PM
Spoiler wasn't specified, so thanks dude! He got me:
Parker: The Hunter by Darwyn Cooke, which is a great choice and an awesome book that I already have. But fret not, because it's also part of what I was going to be getting my person. Don't think I'm regifting yours! I'm regifting my old one
The Nobody by Jeff Lemire. Another excellent choice because I'm always trying to read non-superhero comics and don't really know what's good so I don't get too many of them. I've heard this is great so I really look forward to reading it
Daredevil Vol 1 by Ed Brubaker. I'm really excited about this because I've been meaning to read Daredevil for a while but couldn't get past the Kevin Smith stuff and never got into it. It's also a terrible gift because I know it's gonna be awesome and I'll have to buy everything afterwards
Thanks a lot, mystery man!
edit: also great job on ignoring the suggestions of Batman: Digital Justice and Brat Pack. It would have ruined christmas for everybody
oh nice, jealous of the parker book. the parker novels are some of my favorite books and i've been really excited to pick up that darwyn cooke version, but funds have not yet allowed it.

Between not knowing your trade collection and suggesting such classics as Brat Pack and Batman: Digital Justice, I would suggest you find some new friends my man. Especially Anjin: He's the goddamn worst.

I agree!
He read like every single trade I have, too. But thanks a lot dude, I seriously look forward to reading those two books
Hey, Whoever Is Secret Spoiling Me: when I got home last night, I saw that I had a little slip from USPS that said they'd been by to deliver something, and no one was home to accept it. Worry not! I will try to swing by the post office tomorrow, or worst case scenario on Saturday, to pick the package up.
(I'm assuming this package is from you, dear Whoever Is Secret Spoiling Me, because I'm not expecting anything else.)

I got Parker: The Hunter months ago but haven't have a chance to read it yet how great is it?
i made the addy my parents house in case it was sent out during the holidays and i'll be there for thanksgiving
will report back later
pre emptive thanks
Texiken is a player who got me not only the first two iron fist trades, but the second Thor trade (which was conveniant since my Satan got me the first), and a mini marvels book. Shine on, texiken. You rule.

Moderately unpleasant, but it also contained a box. What did the box contain? FABULOUS PRIZES. Namely, Fables: Deluxe Edition (Book 1) and Top 10 (vol 1)!
These gifts are super-awesome! I read Top 10 some years ago, but never got around to actually buying it; as I reread it now, I remember how much I loved the story. I'm very glad to own this, now. Fables is something that I've heard many good things about, and it looks like it would be right up my alley.
Huge thanks, dude!

thought I'd received my secret spoiler gift today when I got swampthing vol 2 from amazon but then remembered I'd ordered it months ago when it showed up in my goldbox
Got my Secret Spoiler gift today in the mail! Not really sure who it's from because there's no forum name on it, but thanks Anthony!
I got Wisdom: Rudiments of Wisdom, Last of the Independents, and an Incredible Hulk When Monsters Meet DVD. Can't say I've ever heard of those books, but they look really interesting so I look forward to reading/watching them!
Definitely a nice pick me up to an otherwise crappy day. Thanks again.
I haven't sent my gift out yet though because my Spoilee hasn't posted his/her list yet.

So hey, the Aussie dollar is really solid right now, and I just got a 10% discount at Bookdepository, so I'm going to order some books!
I just want to give my spoiler a heads up, just on the off chance I might be buying something you've already gotten for me/were planning on getting for me.
Here's what I'm thinking of ordering, if there's any crossover I guess you should shoot me a PM or something. I'll hold off for a couple of days to give my Spoiler a chance to see this.
