Last Wednesday, we gave you a chance to win an awesome Animal Man card that had been signed and sketched by Jeff Lemire. And in fine fan fashion you responded with some great photos, including this week’s winning entry:
That photo was submitted by @mikd33 on Twitter. The boy in the photo is his son. And the expression on his son’s face is absolutely priceless. But it’s easily worth a collectible piece of art signed by one of his father’s favorite artists. Congrats, guys!
Now, if losing out on our Animal Man card has you seeing Red, don’t fret. Because we’re back with another great Twitter giveaway. And this we, we’re offering you something a little bit different.
Last month, our friends at DK Publishing released the LEGO Batman: Visual Dictionary, a handsome new book that combines DK's famous Visual Dictionary format with the adventurous world of the LEGO Caped Crusader. The book is a treasure trove for fans of Batman and LEGO, with great information on all of the LEGO Batman products released to date, fun interstitial comics, interviews with creators and much more. As an extra bonus, the bottom corners of each page create two great flip-books, and the entire package comes complete with an exclusive LEGO Batman minifigure!
If you’d like a copy of this informative, imaginative book, you’re in luck. We have two of them to give away this week. That’s right. There will be two giveaway winners this week. And even better, each winner will also receive a free copy of the bestselling LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes video game for the console or handheld of their choice.
It’s all the LEGO Batman goodness a fan could ask for, without a single brick to clean up afterwards! Here’s what you’ll need to do to win:
1) If you're not already doing so, be sure to follow @DCComics on Twitter and Instagram.
2) Pick up some of your favorite new DC comics on Wednesday and take a photograph of you reading them. (If you can’t make it to a comic shop on Wednesday, a photo of you reading any DC comic will do.)
3) Share your picture with us via Instagram and tag @DCComics and #DCComicscontest.
That’s all there is to it! At 5 pm PST on Monday, October 15, 2012, one winner will be chosen at random and direct messaged for his/her mailing address. The winner will be featured on Twitter and if possible, here on DCComics.com. DC Comics will tweet the winner’s photo and a fan shout out on or around Tuesday, October 16, 2012.
