Due to a computer glitch we had a corrupted file for the cover to Zak Sally's SAMMY THE MOUSE collection up in a previous post, so for your viewing pleasure here's the real deal. If you missed the news, Sally is collecting the three Ignatz issues of his dark strip for a 104-page trade which he funded on Kickstarter.

Did you get some money from Memaw and Pepaw for Christmas? If you're not going to spend it on a comics shop, howabout buying Kevin Eastman's art studio? The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator is auctioning off all the contents of his art studio -- located within Meltdown Comics -- with 20% of the proceeds to go to the Hero Initiative. Eastman gives a tour of the overflowing contents of the studio in the very entertaining video above. Among the anecdotes he drops along the way -- he once owned a Batmobile and his goal was to dress in a complete Batman costume and drive up to the 7-11 for a pack of smokes in full Batman gear -- a dream sadly unrealized. Here's some of what you will win in this treasure trove of '90s and '00s nostalgia.
