Midnight reading. ❤️🤘🏻🖤

Spiderfelt Can you tell me more about this title? I'm confused by Chabon's name in both the title and the author credit. 7y
Liberty @Spiderfelt It's inspired by The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay. 7y

Spiderfelt I read the description, but still wondered about the publication date. My library has several titles connected with the Escapist, from 2004, 2007 and an ebook from 2016. Chabon is mentioned in a couple, and Vaughn on most. 7y
Spiderfelt I wonder if this is a continuation of these other publications, or a re-release? 7y
Liberty @Spiderfelt I think it was single issue comics first? 7y
[DELETED] 3803335244 Looks so cool! 7y
Liberty @Spiderfelt My instinct says rerelease, but I don't know. ☹️ 7y

alanacristin @Spiderfelt this sounds like a new beast based on the description. There were two earlier volumes that came out a long time ago which I've read but this whole business with Max and relaunching etc doesn't ring any bells. I'll have to pull out my old books for a reread but looks like i need this too😍 7y
Spiderfelt @alanacristin @liberty my brother is a huge fan of Chabon, Vaughn and comics in general. His birthday was last week and I haven't picked out anything for him. If this is a new beast, it would be perfect, but a rerelease would be redundant because he is sure to have read it. Let me know if you find out anything more. 7y
