Just arrived in the post: Essentially Odd – a catalog of products created for and sold at th 826 National stores. Blurb from the back of the book:

At last, the 826 stores have teamed up and created a catalog to sell their wares. Superheroes, no longer will you have to fly to New York to get an Evil Blob Containment Capsule. Need a Black Hole Starter Kit but can’t make it to Seattle? Not a problem anymore. We’ve got your Sea Serpent Secretions, Wiretapping Kit, and Positronic Brain right here. All sales are final (that goes double for the leeches).

Order your own (and find out more about 826 National) here, or read up about the production of the book at For Print Only.

How brilliant. I have half a mind to visit the Brooklyn Superhero Supply Company when I go in September, also part of 826. Zoom
