"Thanks" from the Bamn crew



Indy Comic Book Week may officially end today, but that's no reason to turn your back on some of the talented independent comic book creators that have sponsored the event. It's a new year after all and hopefully your list of resolutions included buying comic books that you've never tried before (No? Well, add it then!).
In addition to Bamn (still available at Alliance Comics and Games, Third Eye Comics, and Comixpress.com). You should check out some of these wonderful, ICBW-approved, self-published titles (Hint: You can purchase these books by visiting their respective websites)...
