Pick of the Week 11/17

Holy crap it's a big week for comics this week!  A lot of high profile graphic novels come out from David B., Joann Sfar, Linda Medley, Chip Kidd, and Tony Millionarie, among others (not to mention Grant Morrison's new Batman title)!  It was hard to pick one out of the bunch, but with the holidays coming upon us...


The Great Treasury of Christmas Comic Book Stories HC - Craig Yoe edits this collection of classic Christmas comics from the Golden Age, including stories by Walt Kelly, John Stanley and Dan Noonan.  Pre-order it from Barnes & Noble right now, and you can get it for over 30% off ($23.61 instead of $34.99).  Christmas will be here before you know it, and what better way to lead up to it?
