No Top cow and no Youngblood? Something odd is going on.

Creativly this is the strongest I've ever seen Image comics. Great line up. But is it selling?

Youngblood comes out in January :)

Image books don't have to sell as well as Marvel and DC books. A high percentage of the profits goes back to the creators. They just have to sell well enough for the creators to support themselves (at least the artist).

Also, it's #4 of Astounding Wolf-Man that's out in November, not #3.

It's good to know these books can still go strong with a differant profit structure than books coming out of Marvel and DC. So a book does'nt have to burn up the direct market sales charts to be a success.

Haven't they been separating them out from the Image solicits over the course of the the last 3~4 months? You can find them here (http://www.comicscontinuum.com/stories/0708/22/imagenov.htm) if interested.

Top Cow appears in the Diamond Preview for September page 176.
http://previews.diamondcomics.com/support/previews_docs/orderforms/cof.txt (http://previews.diamondcomics.com/support/previews_docs/orderforms/cof.txt)

So I think that is a question of hours to the complete sollicitation... Sometimes it's Image Central which is in late for few days...


For me, the big problem is that there are not codes to the back lists order any more (all editors)... Since the Preview of August... I don't understand why... I need these codes... :(

[torippu]

The usual for me in November:

THE ASTOUNDING WOLF-MAN #4
BRIT #4
DYNAMO 5 #9
INVINCIBLE #48
THE WALKING DEAD #45

Hi guys! Right, I'm shilling for you all to order fearless - what can I do to help convince you to order it? Here's what I've done already:

32 Pages of COMIC STRIP. See that 32 pages NO ADS? that's literally 32 Pages of Comic - which, at $2.99 for the comic means you're paying 0.12 cents per page. Which is cheaper than (expensive) blank paper - but it's got some lovely artwork on it (and some great writing).

I've been drawing for 2000AD for the past five/six years working on Judge Dredd , Rogue Trooper and some other strips you may have seen (if you've seen 2000AD).

I keep a blog here ('http://www.pauljholden.com'). I'll be getting some preview art up shortly.

Now, any questions? $2.99 - is about £2 in the UK - which is about the price of two and a half packets of crips (or CHIPS) now, tell me that's not amazing value for money?

[The Adventurer]

Hey PJ. Hell yes I'm buying your book, based entirely on your work on ol' 2000AD. If this looks remotely as good as your work on The 86ers it's going to be gorgeous. Plus the story looks neat too.

And all the rest of ya'll should too. PJ's busted some serious ass to get this far, from illustrating 2000AD fanzines, to drawing for 2000AD itself, and now making the jump to American comics at Image no less, the guy's certainly going places.

[Paul Nolan]

I am also buying Fearless, but mainly beacuse Mark Sable's and Paul Azaceta's work on Grounded was awesome....

I haven't bought an issue of 2000 ad in years but if the previews on the Image messageboard (in the grounded forum) are anything to go on it'll be awesome too :D

[SpideyZERO]

Going to get Spawn Godslayer TPB

But no Godslayer in November? Awwwwwww

[-Sven-]

Anybody getting the Deluxe Girls HC?

I've yet to pick up the trades, but now I've to decide if i take the risk by buying this...
Is this a story worth re-reading at some time, or is it more like Walking Dead, which I think is more like a fast thrill, but has no real re-reading potential, unlike Kirkman's Invincible for example?
