IDW has a plan to clear out its back catalog of comic books and graphic novels, by holding a one day sale at the company’s headquaters in San Diego on Saturday, December 6, from 10am-3pm.
“Our warehouse manager is literally buried,†says IDW’s Chief Operating Officer, Greg Goldstein. “After 10 years of publishing, it’s only natural that the boxes have piled up because of accidental print overruns, books that were set aside as office copies, books intended for reviewers and others earmarked for promotional purposes. Time to get them out of here.â€
The sale includes limited editions and signed copies, and number of the creators will be on hand to sign as well. The guest list includes Ben Templesmith, Chris Ryall, and Chris Mowry.
The sale will be held in IDW’s parking lot, 5080 Santa Fe St, San Diego, CA 92109.
IDW is offering new comics for $1 each (Reg. $3.99 cover). Titles include — subject to availability — 30 Days of Night, Transformers, Star Trek, Wormwood, Spike, Fallen Angel, Dr. Who, Scarface, Gene Simmons, Metal Gear Solid, Clive Barker, Zombies vs. Robots, and CSI.

Other books, comics and magazines will be up to 80% OFF cover price.
