A lot of AFP’s readers come from TheFwoosh.com – if you’re one of them, then you probably know about a little Gleek giveaway they were running right after San Diego Comic-Con.  Well, Fwoosh’s Gleek Week may be over, but that doesn’t mean you’re stuck with Ebay or trading a kidney to get a SDCC exclusive DC Universe Classics Gleek.  We’ve got a few here to give away too – when VeeBee wasn’t looking, I ran off with three of Fwoosh’s Gleeks.  True story.

Marvel Universe Exclusive Nick Fury

I’m still recovering from San Diego Comic-Con, but I need to get caught up.  There’s a bunch of Con exclusives that I want to take pics of and add to the collection here, but those will have to wait.  When I got back home, Nick Fury was waiting for me.  He’s the exclusive Marvel Universe figure that you get if you sign up for a Marvel Digital Comics subscription.  It’s been a long time since I participated in an exclusive promotion like this, so I couldn’t wait to dive in.
