Just a heads up that TFAW’s Black Friday Sale is going on. 30-70% off select comics. Some good titles too. Saw some Momoko covers, SIKTC issues.
Let’s revive this topic for TFAW’s Black Friday Sale for '23.
Post some finds here on what you think are good deals!
I’ll start off by saying if you haven’t read Ex Machina, they got the complete Omnibus for it at 40% off. One of my favorite reads of all time.

Another one I think I mentioned the other day is Absolute Batman the Court of Owls HC which is another 40% off.
Omnibus sales are the best cause they really knock off a good amount of …

Agree, not as good as last year. Thanks Anthony!
Sale sucks. Mostly because it’s incentives not worth cover price, and no regular books for $1.
Here’s what I found worth noting out of ~4600 items. Some repeats to lists above (must be working these in parallel with @Anthony )
$3 Books
Amazing Spider-man 31 2nd Print (Ramos)
Amazing Spider-Man 31 2nd print (Skan) - sold out?
Amazing Spider-Man 31 JTC Negative Space
Moon Knight #25 JTC Negative Space
Mandalorian #1 (1:10 Concept Art)
Star Wars Obi-Wan #1 (1:10 Photo Variant)
$4 Books
1:100 Incentives for $30

I would add facsimiles to this list. Especially the foils which typically command $7-$10 or more…if you passed on them because of these prices, now might be a time to grab them below normal cover proce.…especially with free shipping.
Last year, Black Friday - I purchased a bunch of 1:100, 1:50’s.
I alerted my friend about the sale - he purchased a bunch of 1:100’s & 1:50’s as well on the same day.
When we both received our books - all spine tics. Every single effing book.
I swore on Thanksgiving Day 2023 never again with TFAW and their BF sale & BS Variants.
It’s like now, they let go of their ratio variants that are knowingly damaged.
Fool me once shame on you; fool me twice shame on me.
I believe they have a $1 or 75% off sale around the new year…same books.
I didn’t really see anything I really wanted…maybe some runs to read…so going to wait it out.
