PFL Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Must be an exciting life for you, in permanent fear of being killed by your partner Too true! It's pretty exciting hoping to catch the postman in the morning before she does. I've always enjoyed living life on the edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+groundtrooper Posted October 7, 2016 Share Posted October 7, 2016 I have had the regular hardcover on amazon preorder for months. I couldn't really justify amazon's discount on the deluxe. But I just found that Target is selling the Deluxe edition for $61.82+tax. Ships free. Very excited to get in on the Deluxe. I am very happy with Target's deal. It will be saved to go under the tree and saved for Dec. (That is gonna be tough!) Congrats Tim! I think this is gonna be great! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+jeremiahjt Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 I just got my local comic book shop to order the deluxe edition. He is going to let me pay it out over time since it is a $100 book. I probably will not have to pay the full amount, but he will not know the price until he gets it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
