A Distant Soil Sampler Pack!
on January 9th, 2011I’ve done a lot of work on a lot of comics! If you’d like to try out a variety of goodies, the A Distant Soil Sampler Pack is for you!
Get this great, handy introductory pack with a variety of my books and a terrific documentary DVD of my work by filmmaker and cartoonist Rich Henn! Original retail prices were over $40 for the lot, but you’ll spend more than that on these long out of print items, and you’ll pay even more in shipping.
A Distant Soil Sampler Pack can be had direct from me for only $27.95 US SHIPPING INCLUDED, and I can sign and personalize any or all items at your request.
You get:
Scenes from the Small Press: Colleen Doran, DVD by Rich Henn, edited by Mike Williams, post-production editor on American Splendor. “Henn is well on his way to providing an essential and eye-opening chronicle of the living history of comics through the minds and mouths of the people who have shaped the medium. “-– Arnold T. Blumberg, Senior Editor, CINESCAPE Retailed at $24.95!
Reign of the Zodiac, by Keith Giffen and Colleen Doran, the fantasy series from DC Comics! ONE sample copy, out of print, retail $2.75. Individual issues may vary.
Gimli’s Gift, a limited print of Legolas from Lord of the Rings, available only at Ringcon, an officially licensed LOTR convention in Germany in 2004, $4 retail.
ONE sample copy of a back issue of the Image Comics edition of A Distant Soil, retail about $3. Individual issues may vary.
ONE sample copy of a back issue of Version Zero of A Distant Soil, featuring the long out of print and never-to-be-seen-again version of the series, originally printed from Colleen’s pencil art. Circa 1983-1985. Individual issues may vary.

THANK YOU!






whoa, that cover to ADS (Image version) is that the latest one that was done? I don’t think I have that one! =8^O
I have the documentary and it is quite moving and revealing. Both samplers are quite the steal!
Thank you, and nice to see you, Doug!
Yes, this is a great bargain. It will help me clean out some inventory as well as raise some extra cash. I’m finishing my new book very late (will bring it home in the next few days,) which drained the advance months ago, and put me behind on my next gig. Alas, the plight of the freelancer! OH well, back to Gone To Amerikay this week, and I should start seeing paychecks again in February!
Arlene, that cover is from ADS 37. It’s one of my favorites!
I love having a roomy storage area where I can keep inventory sorted properly. It’s easy to access books and shipping materials, and they are all in great order.
Alas, it’s going to be months before the original art is entirely in order, but at least I have the room to tackle the job now. It’s low priority for the time being: I need to work at top speed over the next few months to make up the weeks I got behind schedule late last year.
Okay…do I have to turn in my fan card or did Book of Lost Souls only have six published issues? Did you really draw eight, Colleen? (trying to justify a deluxe package…)
LOL! Sorry, typo. Six issue miniseries, with ONE unpublished issue! LOL! I’ll fix.
Ohhh you Temptress, you! Both packs sounds deliciously delightful!
XD
Aaarrgghhh!
Just to shill for you for a moment, I showed my Comic Book History class a piece of the documentary as part of our unit on the 80s and 90s, and they were enthralled!
How long will you be offering this amazing deal?
While supplies last! My lowest inventory is on the Version Zero books.
You look to be all of the advanced age of TWELVE in that photo for the DVD.
You tempt me. *sigh*
I was at least 35 in that photo.
