Be there this December when these exciting TRUE BELIEVERS issues come to comic shops!

PiercingMetal Thoughts: The “True Believers” program is one of the programs that I enjoy the most from Marvel Comics and the main reason is that not only does it let you end up with a reading copy of a number of awesome issues, but it also lets you snag an additional copy or three and make a nice set to gift to the younger reader in your circle of influence. Personally speaking, I love doing that and hope to keep the hobby going by inspiring the younger minds about the illustrated page. There are some truly cool reprints being presented here and the Phoenix will also be the star of an upcoming 20th Century Fox film under the X-Men banner (remember that they are NOT a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and probably will not be for a very long time). Since today is also New Comic Book Day, you might want to poke your retailer and make sure that not only are they planning on getting the issues, but that they will be able to set aside a complete set for your weekly pull list. Are you excited about these affordable issues? Let me know down in the comments section below with your thoughts. I know that I am.
