Editor's note: The Crave giveaway will be on vacation next Friday, August 15.

Congrats to Irwin B. of San Jose, Calif., for winning a big bundle of Comic-Con swag in last week's giveaway. This week, we have a whole lot more where that came from.

The winner of part deux of our Comic-Con giveaway gets, among other prizes, a big stack of Archie comics and a two-volume box set of Esther Pearl Watson's graphic novel "Unlovable" about '80s teen underdog Tammy Pierce.

Hasbro's offering two Comic-Con exclusives -- a pack of 30 little Autobots and Decepticons from the Kreon class of 1984 and a Jabba the Hutt action figure (well, non-action, really; he's just lounging around in his throne room with a hookah).

Mattel's adding some Comic-Con exclusives too, including a Hot Wheels Homer Simpson-designed

that's "everything the average man ever dreamed of," and a 9-inch-tall collectible Doomsday action figure (the supervillain, you may recall, made his first full appearance in Superman: The Man of Steel No. 18).

Speaking of Superman, you'll get two signed Superman New 52 comics from DC Comics. And how does a Multiversity poster signed by comic book writer Grant Morrison sound?

CNET's Seth Rosenblatt brought back plenty more swag from San Diego Comic-Con that needs a new home too. So how do you make this package, worth approximately $480, your own? There are a few rules, so please read carefully.
