Regular Beguiling customers already know how enthused we are about contributing the vintage comics that are on display in the extraordinary “Guillermo del Toro: At Home with Monsters” exhibition at the Art Gallery of Ontario.
In the course of the show’s otherwise festive opening week, GDT has asked everyone to consider making a donation in support of earthquake relief in his native Mexico. (In September, the country was devastated by several powerful earthquakes.)
We already have a lot to be thankful about this Thanksgiving, and we’ll be showing our gratitude to GDT and the AGO for their ongoing support by running an in-store fundraiser. This Thanksgiving long weekend, The Beguiling will donate 100% of the sticker price of any one graphic novel purchased Sunday or Monday (Oct 8-9) to Ambulante, Diego Luna and Gael García Bernal’s crowdfunding campaign, and to UNICEF’s relief efforts in Mexico.
That’s right: We’ll be donating the entire value of a (1) graphic novel of your choice purchased on either day to charity. If you’ve been eyeing a new read, now’s the time. Drop by on Sunday or Monday and join us in supporting Mexico earthquake relief!
Not in Toronto this weekend? Donate directly to the campaigns here:
The Beguiling will be open Thanksgiving Sunday from noon to 6pm and holiday Monday from 11am-7pm.
TERMS: Limit one book per customer. Must be a book published prior to September 15, 2017. In store only, on Sunday October 8 and Monday October 9, 2017.

WEAVERS #1
(W) Simon Spurrier (A) Dylan Burnett (CA) Dylan Burnett
What’s to Love: From The Godfather to The Sopranos, organized crime stories have always fascinated us. Weavers is a macabre story with a twist on the familiar drama of dons, capos, and made men, mixing in supernatural elements that only writer Simon Spurrier (The Spire, Cry Havoc) can think up. It’s perfect for fans of Day Men or Scalped!
What It Is: Sid, a young man with nothing going for himself, becomes an unlikely new addition to The Weavers, a brutal, East Coast crime family whose members are bound to loyalty thanks to the supernatural spider inside each one of them, granting them powerful—and often grotesque—abilities. Once he realizes what he’s capable of, Sid sets out to pursue his own secret agenda, counter to the group’s objectives. But he doesn’t have much time—the longer the spider is inside him, the more loyal he becomes to The Weavers…

Well hello! If you’re reading this, you’re probably one of the folks who eagerly anticipates this mailing, coming as it has for years on Christmas Eve, detailing all of the great special deals we’ll be unveiling on Boxing Day. So, we hope you have (or had) a great holiday, and we’ll see you on the morning of the 26th at 11am.
So we’re doing something a little different this year! We’ve been doing a long run of sales for the past few years, but this year, your window is a lot tighter, and the discounts are great!
Also, in other years we’ve done deep discounts on single issues in the weeks going into January & February. This year we’ve been discounting some of that same inventory into the space above Little Island, which we call “The Longbox Archipelago.” If you have not checked this out you really owe it to yourself! This space is closed on December 26th, but will be open during Little Island’s regular business hours thereafter. Ask at Little Island’s front desk to be shown in. And as always, keep your eye on the mailing list for further details…!
