Amanda Conner has had many firsts in her career, and she’s added another with The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide #46.

The superstar writer-artist, known for her work on Harley Quinn, Power Girl, Starfire, and Before Watchmen: Silk Spectre, among others, has provided two covers for the Guide’s 46th edition. Power Girl and Harley Quinn are the central figures on covers that also feature Starfire, Zatana, Terra, and Catwoman, Poison Ivy and Cheetah, respectively.

What’s really different about this edition of the Guide is that the two images join up to form one bigger image.

“We’re psyched to have Amanda back on the cover of The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide. Her cover Supergirl – Batgirl on CBPG #41 was very popular and as you’ll see she was the perfect artist to carry out the concept of two covers that formed one big picture,” said J.C. Vaughn, Vice-President of Publishing for Gemstone Publishing. “It was really important to us that both covers work very well on their own as well as in concert with each other, and she nailed it with her usual mix of style, humor and beauty. I can’t wait for fans to be able to get them!”

In the long history of the Guide, there have been several artists to provide cover images for the book more than once, including Alex Schomburg, Don Newton, Carmine Infantino, Murphy Anderson, Alex Ross, John K. Snyder III, George Pérez, John Romita, Jr. and Mark Sparacio.

Of them, only Ross, Anderson and Snyder III ever produced two covers for the book in the same year.

None of them, though, ever produced two covers that linked up into a bigger, single image.

Score one for Amanda Conner (and for us, if you’re actually keeping score).

The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide #46 is scheduled to go on sale Wednesday, July 20, 2016.

EARLY BIRD RATES
As in recent years, we offer a 10% Early Bird Discount for those customers who pay by December 2, 2015. We also offer an additional 10% discount for three or more ads of the same size and type. All full page ads come with a free directory listing. Please note: Half-page, quarter-page and business card spots are not offered under the Early Bird rates.

Following the success of last year’s special offering, those who have accounts with Diamond Comic Distributors may choose to pay the Early Bird rates through their Diamond account. And of course we also offer these rates for those paying by check, money order, or credit card, as well.

The Early Bird rates end December 2, 2015. Standard rates begin December 3.

STANDARD RATES
With our Standard Rates, Overstreet advertisers can bill their full-page, half-page, quarter-page, and business card ads to their Diamond Comic Distributors accounts (and Directory Listings, too – see separate form) or pay by check, money order, Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Discover Card. The price for a full-page B&W ad ranges from $900 to $1,080, depending on placement, and a full-page color ad is $2,500. Discounts of 10% remain available for three or more ads of the same size and type. Half-page B&W ads run $600, quarter-page B&W ads are $400, and the business card spots are $125. As they do with the Early Bird rates, all full page, standard rate ads come with a free directory listing as well.

Standard Rates run December 3, 2014 through March 8, 2016.

PREMIUM POSITIONS
Almost all of the premium advertising positions in The Overstreet Comic Book Price Guide are spoken for years in advance. However, changes do occur. If you are interested in a premium spot, please let us know.

DIRECTORY LISTINGS
Whether you have a traditional brick-and-mortar retail location, a mail-order business or run a website, simply fill out this form with all the pertinent information and send it back to us, via email, fax or regular mail. Please use the Genre Codes to indicate the types of products you offer by circling the appropriate letters. These letters are, in turn, listed in the directory with your business information for future customers to see.
