BlindFilmCritic | Thanks Ben.

Zach Weiner is publishing his first book, Save Yourself, Mammal!, which will be a collection of his fantastic webcomic Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal.

SMBC has never released a book, which is almost unheard of for a comic with such an extensive archive. As such, there is a good deal of clamoring for a collection.

This collection is made up of comics from the first 2100, which have been hand-selected by the author for humor, poignancy, and mass appeal. As a bonus inducement, the pages of the book contain a miniature choose your own adventure with over 120 entries.

Pre-order it here.  He’s also doing an AMA on Reddit.
