The Top Shelf sale is especially good. 120 Days of Simon, an autobiographical comic about a Swedish rapper who tries to couch surf with strangers for four months straight, is just $5. (I wrote about Simon on Slog not too long ago.) Tom Hart's brilliant anti-corporate Hutch Owen comics are going for $3 a pop.
If that's too rich for your blood, there are some $1 comics that are lifelong favorites of mine. Jack's Luck Runs Out is a noir comic starring a cast of characters pulled directly from playing cards, written and drawn by the underrated Jason Little. Rugrats animator Robert Goodin's The Man Who Loved Breasts is an ode to neuroses and obsessions.
But Tales of the Great Unspoken is, I think, my favorite Top Shelf title. I'm convinced that Aaron Augenblick, the cartoonist behind Unspoken, could have been one of the all-time cartoonist greats, but right after he published this comic, he left the field to do animation for shows like Wonder Showzen and Superjail. This book is definitely worth your measly dollar.
