Hmm, let's see...

• Dark Shadows Noir - I've already pre-ordered this
• Dark Shadows #1 Gold Key Facsimile - We were just talking about this mind of thing over in the "Comics for June 10" discussion. I won't be buying it [because I already have the original (sans poster) and the archival HC reprint], but it's one of the better issues of this quirky run... if you are a Dark Shadows fan who likes kitsch.
• Curse of Dark Shadows Revised - This is essentially the same volume that has already been released, but with a few more bells & whistles. Buy it only is you don't have the 1st printing (and are interested, of course).

Thanks for letting us know (and, as always, I appreciate the Lunar Code).
