A look ahead to next Wednesday: God Hates Astronauts

Ryan Brownes comedy superhero series, God Hates Astronauts drops next Wednesday from Image Comics. It looks like it is going to be sold out before the release on 9/3/14.
Many online retailers have already sold out as well, TFAW has copies of God Hates Astronauts $2.80, below the cover price of $3.50. Midtown comics heas been sold out of this one for weeks.
The reported early numbers on the print run are coming in around 15,000 +/-, which is low for an Image #1 release. This could be one set to pop.
It also does not have a ton of covers. There are two regular covers, an A by Ryan Browne, series creator, and a B from artist and legend Geof Darrow. There are two exclusives that I have heard of so far, the Phantom Variant featuring an homage to Youngblood (which shows the series sense of humor) and an Acme Comics variant featuring an homage to Chew #1
I have had a chance to read the first issue, reviews coming this week. It will definitely hit the humor audience, the Todd The Ugliest boy crowd will appreciate it.

  2. Gonna go crazy on GHA! Only discovered the web series a few days ago (shame on me), and I’m totally tripping out on it 😀

      1. I agree, I really enjoyed the earlier GHA work by Ryan but this tops it. I’m not sure if I’m rooting for war in the next issue or…
