FRIDAY CONTEST!

Win ELK'S RUN BUMPER EDITION!

As the holiday season gets going, I thought it would be a nice idea for Comic World News to do a little gift-giving to its readers. Every Friday � until we run out of stuff to give away, anyway � we�re going to hold an easy contest with free comics as the booty.

All you have to do is send an email to michaelmay@ michaelmay.us with the subject �CWN Friday Contest.� Each week I�ll have some question or other I�d like you to answer in the email, but there won�t be right or wrong answers. I�ll put all the emails into a hat and draw a random winner, who will be announced the following Friday along with the next question for the next prize.

Easy enough? Good.

This week you�re playing for critical darling Elk�s Run Bumper Edition from Speakeasy Comics. It collects the first three issues of Joshua Hale Fialkov and Noel Tuazon�s Elk�s Run and gets you all caught up for the upcoming fourth issue. I wanted to start this contest series off on a good foot and I can�t think of a better prize to do that with. If you haven�t read Elk�s Run, you�re in for a treat.

Fialkov has gone to great lengths to make sure people have heard about this book. It�s been written up in some impressive publications and he�s been all over the Internet promoting it. What I want to know from you in your email is: Where did you first hear about Elk�s Run? If this contest is the first you�re hearing of it, that�s cool. If you don�t remember, that�s a fair answer too. Like I said, no right or wrong here. Just email your response to michaelmay@michaelmay.us and I�ll announce the winner next Friday.

Oh, it probably goes without saying, but Comic World News staff are disqualified from the Friday Contest.

Thanks and Good Luck!

Michael
