This upcoming Monday, the 17th, is St. Patrick's Day, and Fanboy Comics is going to celebrate in our usual manner - a huge sale!

All green comic character back issues, trade paperbacks, hardcovers, comic sets, t-shirts, and more will be 50% off!  That's right, you can save a ton of money on characters like Green Lantern, the Hulk, Green Arrow, She-Hulk, Swamp Thing, and more!  Definitely check out this sale and save some money on some great comics only tenuously connected to whatever the heck the start of this paragraph was about!

Hey, we're putting a bunch of work into making Fanboy Comics a better place to play games! We even hired a whole new employee to help out with this! The biggest thing we've got coming up at the end of the month is this:

There are only six spots, so sign up as soon as you can! We've also got a painting event that's going to be run by the new employee, Zac, who is actually a really good painter. It's going to focus on painting Flesh and Leather, which are definitely hard to get right, but Zac's got your back! Show up on Saturday, March 28th at 6:00 pm and learn how to nail one of the trickier painting techniques!

Oh, and there's a new Warmachine Call to Arms beginning March 24th, so keep an eye out for that!

These words are meaningless to me but they might mean something to you:

What better way to start the Spring Season with the new GX Duelist Pack Tins. Get cards from your favorite GX Duelist in one great product. Including packs from both the first set and the Brand-New Volume 2 set of Jaden, Aster and even Zane. The Volume 2 Boosters of Jaden and Aster release around the same time, but this is the only known way to acquire the powerful Zane packs. Take on the power of the Heroes, or dawn the strength of the Cyber Dragons, this Spring the force will be released.

It takes a brave man to make a Justice League without Superman, but that's just what Keith Giffen, J.M. Demattis, and Kevin Maguire did in their now-legendary Justice League of America run.  Superman's a chump next to the likes of Guy Gardner, anyway, so why would you even waste time with him?  Who needs Green Arrow when you have Booster Gold and Blue Beetle or Aquaman when you have winners like the female Dr. Light and the old guy in the top left corner of that picture?  I'll tell you who: nobody.  Don't miss this fancy hardcover collection of the last funny comic book that anybody actually bought!

Wormwood: Gentleman Corpse is probably one of my favorite if not my outright favorite comic book series at any given moment.  I've loved Ben Templesmith's art since I encountered it in the pages of Fell, but until Wormwood I never had any idea he was a talented writer, too.  In this second volume of Wormwood, our lovable corpse-inhabiting protagonist spends a day at the leprechaun fights, where leprechauns on chains attack each other with beer bottles, but an unfortunate accident means he must find the Leprechaun Queen--or DIE!  The solicitation says this trade also contains a one-shot story, and if it's the one-shot I'm thinking of, that means this trade includes what I consider the funniest visual gag I've ever seen in a comic book.  So, hey, this one's a winner, even if you haven't checked out the first volume of this great series!

Hey, another series of Reactivated Action Figures is here!  This time around, we're going with a Super-Squad theme, and I have more or less no idea what that is!  As near as I can tell, it's Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, and a Hawkman that has a stupider costume than Hawkman's normal costume.  Good for him!

I'll own up.  I didn't read this.  I don't know anything about Red Sonja, and I'm not huge on crossovers at this point.  However, it is by Michael Avon Oeming, who's a great writer sometimes and a good writer the rest of the time, so there are probably worse things you could spend your money on.  Wow.  I'm a natural salesman, huh?

As usual, a great many comic books have been pushed back to a later date. This news is so shocking that we are now developing a weekly section where we announce comic delays, so you can better know when your favorite books are coming out. Or when the next delay announcement will be, whatever. We'll also include other schedule announcements, like different products coming back in stock, second printings, and the like. But this is the comic industry, and we all know which type of announcment we will see the most.

If you haven't seen it, Newsarama has released some pictures of five of Watchmen's main characters!  Here's my favorite:

Zack Snyder is a GENIUS.

Oh and for a follow-up, since I had already made that image, here are pictures of Brian Michael Bendis looking like a tremendous dweeb and Mark Millar looking surprisingly dignified with a drawn-on pencil-thin mustache:
