The official Alterna Comics store is having a $1 clearance sale this week which showcases a host of independent comic books.

Included in this showcase is the kids-friendly The Unlikely Trio: The Last Barn on The Left, as well as the more adult-oriented books The Chair (signed), Attack of the Alterna Zombies, volumes one and two of American Terror, Risers (signed), and Morbid Myths (signed). A lot of these books have great reviews on their site (and ours too!), and span from various different genres. So, if you’re looking to get yourself a graphic novel as well as looking for something for your children, you can’t do much better than getting something for the whole family for only a few bucks.

I can’t speak to a lot of the quality of these books, because I’ve never read them, but the subject matter looks really interesting and I’m definitely willing to give them a shot. Pretty much everyone can give them a shot. You could spend less than ten dollars (not including shipping) and get yourself several different new comics that you may just really enjoy. It’s a pretty safe risk, as far as money is concerned. But if your budget allows you to step outside the one dollar range, check out the other stuff they have on clearance including Jesus Hates Zombies for only seven dollars.

There’s a lot to choose from, and like I said, you may just find several things you love. The sale runs til October 9, 2011.
