Indie Pull List - Week of May 20th, 2015

Look at IDW getting all hardcover, deluxe-ish, limited edition-y crazy.  It's a good thing they did because the Hardcover Highlight is the Maxx - Maxximized (Deluxe Edition).  I read some of the old Maxx comics, but most of my Maxx memories come from watching the animated series on late night re runs.  This hardcover collects the first four issues of the re released, original issues that have been "Maxximized" with the whole process being overseen by Sam Keith.   It does carry a hefty price tag, though - $125.00. Apparently that comes with a bonus piece of artwork by Keith and a limited run of 175.  Even with all that it's still a little high on the ouch factor, especially with the meat of the book being only 104 pages.  I'm sure it's a very nice book but I don't know if nostalgia is worth that much.  You can also get these issues in a more reasonable, (but still a little higher) priced hardcover for $21.99  And I was so pumped when I started this Hardcover Highlight...

Clive Barker’s Nightbreed Vol. 1

I'm actually surprised this didn't come out 20 years ago when the movie first came out.  It's been a cult classic for a while so at the very least I'm surprised it didn't come out 5 or 10 years ago.  But, regardless, it's here now.  The Midian is such a ripe creation that any number of stories could be told within it and feature any number of characters and it's all justified. You also don't need to have seen the original movie to understand the core concept.  This is a great idea for a series, hopefully it IS great.

Alice In The Country Of Clover - Twin Lovers 

Oh, ok, this is a manga.  Not that there's anything wrong with that and I don't know why I thought it wouldn't be.  Anyway.  It's popular.  New York Times Bestseller list popular.  And my buddy just said he thinks it's been turned into an anime.  The Twin Lovers in the title are Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum who have lost some wait and gotten considerable plastic surgery, (they're featured on the cover).  Apparently there's also a game and light novels that are part of this whole, I guess, franchise, you'd call it.   

Publisher: Seven Seas Entertainment
SRP: $13.99
Contains: 192 pages of Twin Lover action
