In case you’re having troubles with the new UIX (a LOT of people have been):

Master of Cheap Fu

Shang-Chi by Gene Luen Yang  Deadly Hands of Kung Fu

Marvel Shang-Chi Sale runs through Monday, 8/31.

Shang-Chi got reconfigured after the film version came out and became more of a fantasy figure than an espionage one with the introduction of the Ten Rings. Gene Yang was writing most of this. (As you may have heard, Yang is a Genius with a MacArthur Foundation grant to prove it, plus some Eisner and Harvey Awards.)

All of his work is collected in Shang-Chi by Gene Luen Yang with Dike Ruan and Marcus To on art.

If you wanted something a little closer to the flavor of the original series, there’s Deadly Hands of Kung Fu: Out Of The Past by Mike Benson / Tan Eng Huat is what you’re looking at in this sale. It also has some material from the 70s Deadly Hands of Kung Fu magazine.

Simply Red

Red Sonja: She-Devil With a Sword  Red Sonja Vol. 1: Queen of Plagues  Red Sonja

Dynamite Red Sonja Sale runs through Monday 9/8.

Let’s run through the highlights first.

  • Red Sonja: She-Devil With a Sword (’05 – ’13) – Mike Carey / Michael Avon Oeming / Eric Trautman / Mel Rubi / Walter Geovani
  • Queen Sonja (’09-’13) – Joshua Ortega / Arvid Nelson / Luke Lieberman / Mel Rubi / Jack Herbert
  • Red Sonja (’13-’15) – Gail Simone / Walter Geovani
  • Red Sonja (’17-’19) – Amy Chu / Erik Burnham / Carlos Gomez
  • Red Sonja (’19-’21) – Mark Russell / Bob Quinn
  • Immortal Red Sonja Vol. 1 – Dan Abnett / Alessandro Miracolo
    • Vol. 2 here (listed w/ the single issues for unknown reasons)

What’s good here? Dynamite’s time with Red Sonja started out strong with Oeming/Carey/Rubi. Gail’s run definitely has it’s fans. We’re also very big fans of the Mark Russell/Bob Quinn run which manages to be a high adventure comic AND a satire of fantasy politics and tropes at the same time. It’s really quite impressive.

Unannounced Sales
