I have seen a number of books reviews including one by USA Today (see links below) all of which are very favorable. Four of the links provide sample stories from the book and I will put them at the top of the list of links and provide the title of the story previewed.<\/p>\n<p>I hope this book does well. As I mentioned previously crime and romance are my favorite Simon and Kirby genre. If this books sells well enough Titan may publish a second crime book that would include all the rest of S&amp;K crime stories.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.usatoday.com\/life\/comics\/story\/2011-10-27\/New-book-collects-Simon-and-Kirbys-classic-crime-comics\/50963446\/1\">USA Today (&#8220;Queen of the Speed-Ball Mob&#8221;)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.craveonline.com\/comics\/previews\/177105-exclusive-story-from-qthe-simon-a-kirby-library-crimeq\">Crave On Line (&#8220;A Phantom Pulls the Trigger&#8221;)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/boingboing.net\/2011\/11\/01\/simon-and-kirby-crime-comic-anthology-exclusive-boing-boing-excerpt.html\">boingboing (&#8220;Burned at the Stake&#8221;)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/comics.ign.com\/articles\/121\/1211524p1.html\">IGN (&#8220;The Life and Death of Public Enemy Number One&#8221;)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/comicsworthreading.com\/2011\/10\/28\/the-simon-and-kirby-library-crime\/\">Comics Worth Reading<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dailyblam.com\/news\/2011\/10\/24\/erics-graphic-novel-review-the-simon-kirby-library-crime\">The Daily Blam!<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.comicscavern.com\/news\/2011\/10\/31\/titan-collects-simon-and-kirbys-crime-classics.html\">Comics Cavern<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/comicbookcollectorsclub.com\/simon-and-kirby-library-crime-comics-review\/\">Comic Book Collectors Club<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While some individuals were fortunate enough to be able to pick up a copy of Titan&#8217;s latest release, &#8220;Simon and Kirby Library: Crime&#8221;, at the New York Comic Con it has not been available to the general public until this last week.
