Shipping October 15th, 2008

The following books are scheduled to ship to The Beguiling in on Wednesday, October 15th, 2008. That’s right folks, no delay because of the Canadian Thanksgiving Holiday.

Click here to see the shipping list: 081015-shipping.txt.

We’ve decided to put the shipping list into its own file now, so as not to jam up the page with huge reams of text. But we’ll still make a recommendation on the page here from time-to-time. Enjoy.

And speaking of which:

Breakdowns Portrait Of Artist As Young HC 27.50
Holy shit, it’s a new Art Spiegelman graphic novel. Actually, it’s a reworked version of his original “Breakdowns” book, but with a whole bunch of new stuff to boot. Absolutely essential.

Moresukine GN 15.95
I actually just reviewed this on my personal blog: http://comics212.net/2008/10/07/tuesday-review-moresukine/. I totally loved it, and you will too.

Amazing Spider-Man #573 Colbert Var (Pp #833) 3.99
This week’s issue of Amazing Spider-Man will feature a special Stephen Colbert Variant cover, and an all new backup story featuring the (conclusion?) of Colbert’s run for the white house within the Marvel U. Expect this one to get a lot of media attention. We’ll be selling this one at cover price ($3.99), limit one per person for the first 24 hours.

Rasl #3 3.50
The third issue of Jeff Smith’s brand new ongoing series. Very different than Bone, eh? First printings of the first two issues are still in stock at cover price.

Street Fighter II Turbo #1 Cvr A&B 3.95
Thanks to our friends at UDON, anyone purchasing the first issue of this new Street Fighter series will receive a free copy of the REMIX one-shot which leads into this. Thanks, Udon!

Supermans Pal Jimmy Olsen Special #1 4.99
This is Part 0 of the Superman Crossover Event: “NEW KRYPTON”, by James Robinson and Geoff Johns. Seeing as everyone has been digging on Robinson’s and Johns’ Superman stories lately, I imagine this will be quite popular on Wednesday.

Dramacon Ultimate Ed HC 19.99
This hardcover edition contains all three volumes of Friend Of The Beguiling Svetlana Chmakova’s series for Tokyopop. If you somehow missed it over the past three years, it’s now 10 bucks cheaper!

Announce: Lynda Barry’s WRITING THE UNTHINKABLE Class October 23rd & 24th

Lynda Barry: WRITING THE UNTHINKABLE Class
Thursday October 23rd and Friday October 24th
10am-4pm both days, Location To Be Revealed(!)
$300.00 Tuition
Only available through eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&item=160290008768

In advance of Lynda Barry’s upcoming presentations at The International Festival of Authors, she will be giving one of her fantastic classes on writing and creativity. It runs two days, Thursday and Friday the 23rd and 24th of October, for 6 hours per day, and will cost $300.

For those of you who know about this class, you’ve already gone to click that eBay link; this is certainly a rare opportunity.

For those of you that need to know what this is all about, check out this special message from Lynda’s friend Betty Bong!

About Writing the Unthinkable:

OK! This is the writing class Lynda Barry teaches! It is open to ALL PEOPLE! It is called– WRITING THE UNTHINKABLE! But first! Please note! IMPORTANT! This class is for students 18 years old and UP! No one under 18 allowed! Do you wish you could write? Do you wish you had a better memory? Do you want to make stories but are too confused about how to even start? DO YOU WANT A SEAT IN THE TWO-DAY WRITING CLASS TAUGHT BY LYNDA BARRY? THIS IS AN INTENSIVE WRITING CLASS! It’s not a social situation at all! Actually, you can be completely anonymous in this class! You don’t have to be cool! Your clothes can be square! You don’t have to be talk to anyone if you don’t want to! You don’t even have to make eye contact! And you don’t have to be a writer to be part of it! In fact, this is a class that works especially well for ‘non-writers’ like bartenders, janitors, office workers, hairdressers and anyone who has given up on ‘being a writer’ but still wonders what it might be like to write. Lynda teaches a specific way of working that she learned from her teacher, Marilyn Frasca, in the late 1970’s and has used ever since. She says it will work for anyone who has any kind of curiosity about writing or remembering, especially people who have always wanted to write but have no idea how to even begin. BE ADVISED! IT’S GOING TO BE TWO DAYS OF INTENSE CONCENTRATION AND HARD WORK! It is not jive! It is for real! (It is also, actually, pretty fun too, but not in a social way!) Can you dig that? If so, we can dig YOU! All you’ll need is about 100 sheets of notebook paper, a three-ring binder (no other kind of paper set-up will work for this class) and a couple of your favorite pens. All students must figure out their own transportation and lodging. We’ll tell you where the classroom is and other details when we confirm your reservation! Come to Lynda’s writing class! Our class secretary, Betty Bong, describes the class as a way to “blow your mind with….. your own mind!” GOOD! GOOD! GOOD! Yes you can! YOU CAN! Do! Please come!

Now that’s a mouth-full.

Announce: Shaun Tan @ The Beguiling October 28th

Shaun Tan Signing
In Support of his new book, Tales from Outer Suburbia
Tuesday, October 28th, 5pm-7pm
@ The Beguiling,
601 Markham Street, Toronto
FREE

The Beguiling is proud to welcome Australia’s Shaun Tan to Toronto, on tour for his new book Tales from Outer Suburbia. Despite being an accomplished and award-winning illustrator, Tan first came to the attention of graphic novel fans around the world for his epic, wordless graphic novel The Arrival.

Tales from Outer Suburbia is a fascinating hybrid storybook and graphic novel, showcasing Tan’s gorgeous art through prose, comics, and gorgeous full-page illustrations. A collection of short stories to be enjoyed by readers from 6 to 60, Tales from Outer Suburbia is exactly the sort of book that could become anyone’s favourite.

With The Arrival receiving incredible international acclaim, including being picked as The Comic Journal’s best graphic novel of 2007, we’re sure that Tan’s visit to Toronto is eagerly anticipated.

The Beguiling would like to thank Tundra Books for their assistance with this signing.

More Viz Manga Arrives

We’ve received several more Viz Manga and an art book… and it’s some nice stuff!

The Arina Tanemura Collection: Art of Full Moon
Full Metal Alchemist Vol 17
Monster Vol 17
Vagabond Vol 28

Solanin by Inio Asano

I’ve been really looking forward to reading this one. It’s a thoughtful and mature slice of life story that’s worth a look even for non-manga readers. This English edition combines the two Japanese tankoubon into one slightly over-sized french fold softcover and includes the original color opening pages of both chapters.

“Meiko Inoue is a recent college grad working as an office lady in a job she hates. Her boyfriend Shigeo is permanently crashing at her apartment because his job as a freelance illustrator doesn’t pay enough for rent. And her parents in the country keep sending her boxes of veggies that just rot in her fridge. Straddling the line between her years as a student and the rest of her life, Meiko struggles with the feeling that she’s just not cut out to be a part of the real world.”

Stolen Seth Art!

I had actually meant to post about Seth’s lovely new cover for Taddle Creek magazine under better circumstances… It turns out the original’s been stolen! Tom Devlin sent us a heads-up that the art was taken from the Taddle Creek offices… If you’ve got any information about its wherabouts, please contact us right away… mail@beguiling.com or 416-533-9168

Also, if you’re in Toronto please spread the word around.
