Although it makes its official debut at Comic Con International next week, there's no reason you can't jump in on the fun and Pre-order Evil Inc Vol 5 NOW. Books will begin shipping after July 27. Pre-order your copy today.

Here's a sneak preview of the book.

This book will begin shipping after I return from San Diego, so the only way to get your hands on it first is to be at Comic-Con next week.

But you can be the first on your block to pre-order it!

The graphic novel is $20.

An ARTIST EDITION is $30. If you'd like to specify the illustration I draw inside the book for your Artist Edition, you can use the Note function during check-out.

If you buy all five of the Annual Reports, I'll give you Volume One for free (total: $70).

If you want an Artist Edition Vol. 5 and all four of the other Annual Reports, I'll discount the total to $80.

And if you want to get all five Annual Reports as Artist Editions, I'll take ten bucks off the total for a discounted price of $120.

Of course, regular shipping and handling charges will be added.

As a bonus -- and because my henchmen demanded it -- I'm lowering my shipping costs from $4.75 to $3 for a single book.

Pre-order Evil Inc Vol 5 NOW.

Evil Inc Annual Report Vol. 5 is, as I write, making its way to Philly for a scheduled delivery that should have it in my hot, little hands by 5 p.m. at the latest. This means it will arrive in plenty of time to make its debut at Comic Con International in San Diego July 22-25.

If you'd like to follow the action live, please follow me on Twitter, where I will be posting live tweets and photos throughout the process.
