ALL STAR LEGENDS Presents EX MACHINA VOLUME 1


As the year motors on we are proud to introduce you to our next ALL STAR LEGEND. The sci-fi/political series from the brain of Brian K. Vaughan and artistic talents of Tony Harris, EX MACHINA Volume 1.

Ex Machina centres around the story of Mitchell Hundred and his rise as the world's first masked vigilante and later, superpowered Mayor of New York City. The setting is New York City post September 11th and the arena of State politics has never looked so good. The book at first glance could be described as West Wing meets The Rocketeer but runs with a much deeper thread into the origins of Hundred's abilities and what it takes to be "hero" in the modern world.

As always Vaughan (best known for his work on Y The Last Man) is in fine form with the writing on this book. Mixing the world of superheroes and politics is no simple task but Vaughan seems to handles it with class addressing current issues without ever seeming to take sides. All the while the writer never loses sight that this is also a story of a man with the abiltity to talk to and command machines while touching on the mystery of where these powers came from.

Perhaps key to this series' appeal though is Tony Harris' art. His excellent photo realistic images bring a beautiful and at many times, brutal humanity to these pages that the series demands. For the most part the story involves everyday people and the art reflects that with great style.



This LEGEND was inspired by the fact March sees the release of Vaughan's new ongoing series f rom Image, SAGA. The hype behind SAGA is growing daily with promises of a story that mixes Star Wars and Game Of Thrones. We couldn't think of a better way to compliment SAGA's release than showcasing another one of Vaughan's epic's in EX MACHINA.

If Ex Machina is too your liking, then you might want to also check out some of these other titles:
Y The Last Man (Vertigo)
Pride Of Baghad (Vertigo)
Starman (DC)
Runaways (Marvel)
As always, the ALL STAR LEGEND will be available for 30 days (or until stock sells out) at the discounted price. As this will be a limited stock promotion there is strictly "no holds" on the legend,  first in, best read! No further discount applies to the book as it's a pretty good chance it will already be cheaper than the US cover price! The discount also only applies to the volume listed, not the entire series of trades.

If you have any questions, you know where to ask them. You can start to buy the Legend from this Thursday the 1st of March.

All Star Legends. The legendary titles of the highest recommendation.

GARY FRIEDRICH/ GHOST RIDER BACK ISSUE FUNDRAISER!


Last week was a pretty crappy week for Gary Friedrich, creator of Marvel's Ghost Rider. After a long winded legal battle over creative ownership of the character, Friedrich has come off second best with Marvel willing to drop their counter-suit against him if he can pay an amount of $17,000.

This is a disappointing outcome on many levels, as Friedrich is now a 68 year old man with health issues and  has just had his main form of income taken away from him.

More can be read about the case HERE

Obviously as news of this was reported, the comicbook community has quickly banded together to help raise money for Friedrich.


The most notable so far being Steve Niles (30 Days Of Night) setting up a fundraising account on his website found HERE.

Not to be outdone, locally OzComics is using their weekly Draw Off Challenge in an attempt to raise funds for Gary too. More info on that can be found HERE.

What we would like to do to help raise funds for Gary here at All Star is this. For the next two weeks, up until Monday the 27th all sales from Ghost Rider back issues will be donated 100% to his cause.


Now Ghost Rider might not be your character of choice or you might not have any holes to fill in your Ghost Rider collection but we believe the cause is worthy and the most a single issue will set you back is $4.50 ($4.05 if you have a Standing Order). So for the sake few extra bucks, pick up an issue or two of Ghost Rider the next time you are in and feel good that you are doing your bit to help out the creator of one the most visually iconic comic characters of all time.


The All Star Crew.

ALL STAR LEGENDS Presents THE GOON VOLUME 1


It's the start of a  new month, so it's time for a new All Star Legend. We thought this time around that Eric Powell's The Goon should get it's turn in the spotlight.

The series is both written and drawn by the talented Eric Powell who clearly has a great love for all things pulp and B-grade if this first volume is anything to go by. Mobsters, the undead, hard drinking, cartoony stylings and laugh out loud violence and gore, what more could you possibly ask for?!

Need further convincing? Take a look at this test clip director David Fincher put together in an attempt to get a Goon animated film off the ground.




The film never happened but you can read all about The Goon's adventures in this first volume, Nothing But Misery.





So if you are looking for a little mindless mayhem and the origin to Troy's hat, be sure not to miss out on The Goon Volume 1


As always, the ALL STAR LEGEND will be available for 30 days (or until stock sells out) at the discounted price. As this will be a limited stock promotion there is strictly "no holds" on the legend,  first in, best read! No further discount applies to the book as it's a pretty good chance it will already be cheaper than the US cover price! The discount also only applies to the volume listed, not the entire series of trades.

If you have any questions, you know where to ask them. You can start to buy the Legend from this Thursday the 9th of February

All Star Legends. The legendary titles of the highest recommendation.

FRIGHT NIGHT BLU-RAY GIVEAWAY!!!



A remake of the 1985 original, teenager Charley Brewster (Yelchin) guesses that his new neighbor Jerry Dandrige (Farrell) is a vampire responsible for a string of recent deaths. When no one he knows believes him, he enlists Peter Vincent (Tennant), a self proclaimed vampire killer and Las Vegas magician, to help him take down Jerry.

To celebrate the release of Fright Night on DVD and BLU-RAY, we have 5 BLU-RAY copies of Fright Night to give away!

All we want from you to go into the draw to win a copy is tell us which person (real or fictional) moving in nextdoor to you would cause you to have a fright night.


All entries will go into the All Star Barrel and winners will be drawn at random on Monday the 13th of Feb at 6pm.
The Blu-rays will be available to pick up from the store Tuesday the 14th of Feb and winners must provide photo ID before collecting.

Again huge thanks to Fright Night, out on DVD and Blu-Ray now.

The All Star Comics 1 Year Anniversary!


What were you doing at around 4am on Friday the 4th of February 2011? Probably sleeping right? Well we here at All Star, having just taken down the plastic curtains that had divided the store into three during construction were, for the first time, looking at a big empty store that was set to be open just over 14 hours later.

Since then and our amazing launch night, we like to think that All Star Comics Melbourne has gone from strength to strength. There have been ups and downs along the way, but we feel pretty confident in saying that the ups greatly outweigh the downs and we believe that we can attribute a lot of that to just one group of people.

You.

That's right, our regular customers, wheather you've been with us from day one or just this last week, you have made this a venture worth doing and this is our way of thanking you for a year of loyal support.

Therefore, even though it is our birthday we want to give you the present.


No, it isn't cake. Starting this Saturday the fourth of February, our official one year anniversary, we are going to have 20% off all stock (excluding items already discounted). This includes new comics, trade paperbacks, back issues, vintage toys, prints, pretty much anything with a price tag on it.
The discount will run through to the end of trade on Sunday the fifth of February and be off standard marked shelf prices. Of course there are no holds, you cheeky monkeys!


So if you are around on the weekend, drop in, pick up that trade you've been eying off or just clear out your stand order and reminisce about your favourite ALL STAR moment from the last year.

Hope to see you then and again thanks for an amazing first year.

The All Star Crew.
