Welcome To Tranquility Volume Two Out Today!

[Gail Simone]

I am really proud of this book. It is an experiment in storytelling...including back-up stories that are both complete in themselves and yet essential to the main story, something I've been wanting to try for a long time.

I really love this book. Hope you guys do, too.

[WhiteRose]

Welp, time for the monthly trip to the comic shop.

Sorry, travel insurance and hockey fees. You lose again.

[The Tyrant Virus]

Hmm, I got the first six issues and loved them, but forgot to add it to my list, so I ended up missing the issues after those. I'll have to pick this up whenever I get the chance. Thanks for the heads up!

[Gail Simone]

White Rose, you don't need those other things. Will those other things have Zombie Zeke? I SUBMIT THAT THEY WILL NOT!

And welcome, TV!

[TCJohnson]

Well, the hockey could have jaws being dislocated...that is close.

[Tobias March]

Damn....I hope I don't get flagged by customs coming into Oz, because I'm dipping into my funds again. (seriously, it'll be a close thing as per the funds requirement - but I loves the Tranquility!)

I got both trades on order at my LCS. Only you can make me excited about a book that deals with the drama of geriatric super powered seniors. For the love of all that's holy for once I'm hoping for no cheesecake shots in this one.

[Gail Simone]

Heh.

The book really is about the town more than just the old folks.

[stealthwise]

I got the first six issues via mail trade, and added the series to my pull for the last six, so I'm glad I didn't have to wait.

Seriously, why does DC take so freaking long to put out trades? The last issue came out in... what, November? That's a long time to have to wait for a series that's finished.

Incidentally, I pulled the date from a google search, and came up with this fairly harsh review: http://savagecritic.com/2007/11/they-rise-above-this-they-cry-about.html

[Gail Simone]

Yeah. I got a lot of flak for responding, but I still think that was one of the goofiest reviews I've ever gotten, for a number of reasons. But that's gonna happen, not a big deal. :)

Gail,

Why does Thomasina rock? It was good to see a black heroine. :cool:

[Gail Simone]

Yeah, thank you. I love Tommy. One fun thing about Tranquility is that it actually has four black leads, and I didn't even really notice until I was about eight issues in. It's just not what the focus of those characters is--it's just a part of it, and I love them all.

Thanks!

I wanna hear more about WhiteRose playing hockey.

...Who would dare oppose her !?

[heystacy]

It was a great series. I originally bought a subscription to the series. I was sad when it was over.
