We're pretty pumped to be coming up on the first meeting of the Third Eye Book Club!
A place where you can socialize with fellow comic fans, discover new series and creators, and get to interact with some of your favorite comic creators.
We'll be hosting the first meeting of the Third Eye Book Club this Sunday at Third Eye Annapolis, and we'd be totally honored to have you guys join us for this celebratory first time ever event!
For January, we're featuring THE STUFF OF LEGEND, one of our personal favorites, as the Third Eye Book Club spotlight, and between now and Sunday you can get 20% OFF this book when you mention the Book Club at the counter.
This modern fantasy masterpiece, which is soon to be a major motion picture, is a graphic novel you have got to read -- no matter what you're normally into -- STUFF OF LEGEND will blow you away.
In terms of the storytelling, the artwork, the craftsmanship of the book itself -- all around, this is an amazing piece of work, and we're really excited to have this opportunity to share it with you guys.
What's it all about? Check it out -- As Allied forces fight the enemy on Europe's war-torn beaches, another battle begins in a child's bedroom in Brooklyn when the nightmarish Boogeyman snatches a boy and takes him to the realm of the Dark.
The child's playthings, led by the toy soldier known as the Colonel, band together to stage a daring rescue.
On their perilous mission they will confront the boy's bitter and forgotten toys, as well as betrayal in their own ranks.
The Stuff of Legend is a haunting and ultimately redemptive tale of loyalty, camaraderie, and perseverance.
In short: imagine Toy Story meets Saving Private Ryan if it was directed by Guillermo del Toro. A sweeping, widescreen fantasy saga with artwork that has a very cool, almost storybook feel to it -- STUFF OF LEGEND is a must for anyone who is a fan of series like FABLES, JOE THE BARBARIAN, MOUSE GUARD, BONE, or THE SANDMAN.

We will print out the list, and the first 50 names will have a chair secured for them.
