Here's An Early Christmas Treat From Fred Hembeck and Comic Shop News

Dec. 1, 2014 - PRLog -- Here's an early holiday treat, Fred Hembeck's cover for the 2014 Comic Shop News Christmas Special. This is Fred's second Holiday cover for CSN. Hembeck will have six covers for CSN in 2015 including the four preview issues, FCBD Special and Christmas Special. We don't get the chance to do original covers much, and the fans and retailers' response to Hembeck's covers has been great.

   Gift-shopping can be a challenge for everyone—but it’s even more confusing for the shopper who knows very little about the gifts in question. Comic book readers love getting gifts related to their hobby—but for the non-comics-reader, figuring out just what the right gift might be can be a real challenge. That’s where the CSN Christmas Special comes in.  In this publication, you will find a wide assortment of gift ideas perfect for holiday giving.  At the end of the special is a “wish list.”  All the comics fan has to do is read through the catalog, mark his or her gift wishes, and pass the list along.  What could be easier?

   Best of all, this holiday special makes it easy for gift-givers to do what they wanted to do all along: give a thoughtful gift that will truly please the recipient.  This special is filled with hundreds of gift ideas ranging in prices from a dollar to hundreds of dollars and covering pretty much every price in between.

   Of course, the CSN Christmas Special is far from complete in its listings, since hundreds of new comics-related titles are published each and every month! The best way to get an idea about everything that’s available is to talk to the folks at your friendly neighborhood comics shop; they’re knowledgeable people who will be able to help you find just the right gift to make this the most memorable holiday yet!

    Fred Hembeck’s art has been gracing the pages of various magazines and comics since the late 1970s and we are pleased to have an all-new, all-Hembeck cover again this year. Our thanks to Fred for his festive cover and the original art is available from Fred on ebay until December 5, 2014.

The Comic Shop News Christmas Special is at finer comic shops now.
