Taking into account that there will be no more store exclusives, we may see some smaller print runs on Image series, hopefully. Image has long been a publisher that has been spec heavy, due mostly to the success of many of their series. Here is a look at new Image series coming out in June.

Divinity #1 Fifth Printing to be allocated
Divinity #1 is on fire. With the regular cover selling for many multiples of its cover price, and the 2nd and 3rd prints also going for more than cover, I have been picking them up at shops on the sly and selling them for a nice return. (Do not want to tip my hand when it comes to some shops on what I am buying as they will pull the books off the shelf.) The fifth printing of the popular Divinity #1
is being allocated from Diamond and may be hard to find. Continue reading “Divinity #1 Fifth Printing to be allocated”
'We Kill The Dead' Slasher Comic going for World Record
I think I have made it pretty well known I am a huge horror fan. Toys, movies, comics, t-shirts, and even the music I listen to (love Rob Zombie, Misfits, Horrorpops, Creepshow, and a ton of other bands with a horror twist.) So when John Lepper, from www.theblood-shed.com, mentioned to me that he was trying to get funding for a slasher book called ‘We Kill the Dead’ I had to put it up in support. I have spotlighted a ton of Kickstarter and Indiegogo books and do love Indie Comics. Continue reading “'We Kill The Dead' Slasher Comic going for World Record”

Lantern City Coming to Netflix?
Ok follow along for a moment. There was once a proposed TV show called Bruce Boxleitner’s Lantern City. Bruce was going around the convention circuit promoting the concept for the show, as well as the website www.lanterncitytv.com. There is also an IMDB page for Lantern City TV Show, a steampunk show produced by LeitCraft Productions (Bruce Boxleitner’s company.) Then, last week, came the Lantern City #1 comic book.
Seems like there might actually be something going on with this. Continue reading “Lantern City Coming to Netflix?”
