If you cringe at the mere thought of venturing into crowded stores the day after Thanksgiving, Oni Press has a good -- and money-saving -- way for you to get a jump on holiday shopping for those comic readers on your list. The Portland, Oregon-based publisher is having a Black Friday Weekend Sale, offering some of its graphic novels for 50 percent or more off their cover price, and single issues for just 99 cents each.

Titles include Lost at Sea by Bryan Lee O'Malley, The Big Book of Barry Ween: Boy Genius by Judd Winick, and Ojo by Sam Kieth, Alex Pardee and Chris Wisnia. The sale begins at midnight Friday and continues through 5 p.m. Monday.
