Media Release -- To celebrate their first twelve months of deluxe hardcover offerings, today IDW Limited (www.idwlimited.com) announced a 72-hour flash sale event. For the next three days IDW Limited will offer discounts on the remaining copies of several of its rare limited-edition titles. Ranging from Transformers to My Little Pony to creator-owned projects like Monocyte and Crawl To Me, the sale will have something for everyone. There will also be several never-before-seen items available only during this three day period including hand-drawn sketch covers from rock poster artist, Munk One.
"The fans have been so supportive during this first year." Said IDW Limited director, Jerry Bennington. "We wanted to celebrate that support in a big way. This sale felt like the perfect way to do that. Hopefully fans who are missing a title or two from their collection will be able to get that special book they want this week. We've got a few surprises planned for the next few days, so make sure you're keeping up with all our announcements and offerings."
Besides the sale there will also be several giveaways and contests designed around fan interaction, culminating in a fan art contest featuring one of IDW's marquee series. New items will be added each day, with announcements being made through IDW Limited's social media channels (www.facebook.com/idwlimited & twitter.com/idwlimited).
With discounts as steep as 50%, the already limited inventory on the deluxe hardcover site is likely to move fast. Fans would be wise to start shopping early if they hope to take part in the sale.
