Coffee Table Final Call

Today is the last chance if you want one

The front and back cover of the HYPERGAMOUSE Coffee Table edition

One of the elite rewards of the Hypergamouse campaign was the Coffee Table Book, which is a large horizontal edition with only two panels per page, thereby spreading out each episode to two pages and permitting larger panels and higher resolution art. This backer’s edition is now available at NDM Express as well as at the Arkhaven store and features the first 100 episodes of the popular comic as well as the nine episodes of the original black-and-white comic drawn by the original illustrator.

NDM Express is recommended if you have credit card issues at Arkhaven. Please note that both stores will take down the product listing at midnight California time.

Each episode stretches across two pages, with two large panels per page.

Although the coffee table book is 222 pages, the content is exactly the same as the 115-page hardcovers and paperbacks that have already shipped out to all of the backers, including both essays by Vox and Lacey. It also has the special gold Arkhaven logo that is reserved for first editions.

The price of the book is $169, which includes shipping. It’s a uniquely collectible and historical book; imagine owning an elite edition of the first Peanuts collection or the original Calvin & Hobbes. And it is a very limited edition, with a print run of less than 150 in total.

We have also made a decision about the leather editions. Instead of being bound in brown cowhide, they will be bound in navy blue pigskin. First, it’s a higher-quality leather, and second, the color looks better with the yellow printed page edges.

This is actually a test-binding in burgundy pigskin leather. Note the French groove…
