Finally, The Man-Thing Graphic Novel!

Looks like this is scheduled to go on sale in October and it'll be a hardcover! You can pre-order at the Amazon link over on the right, but they don't have any images yet. With that in mind I hope no one cares if I post a couple of samples here to whet your appetite:

As discussed elsewhere, this story was written, pencilled and inked in 1997, but remained unpublished until 2010, in "Batman's Hidden Treasures".
