Issue 7 the next story arc. Issue six is already finished by Riley.

It is bi-monthly so issue #1 April and #2 June and so on. Mark Millar IMO does good work, however, his work is not good for speculators. Nemesis was a great read. The other issues is most of his independent works are short 4-7 issues stories, nothing ongoing.

Hellblazer and Fables are Vertigo. i.e. DC. Cerebus, which ran 300 issues, is one of the old flag bearers. WOW! I totally forgot about Cerebus. But as far as Image goes its Spawn, Savage Dragon, Walking Dead, and then Invincible right? In that order. Witchblade is somewhere in the 160s and Darkness reverted original numbering and is in the 100s, but there Image/Top Cow right?

Sort of off topic but do you remember the delays with Battle Chasers? I think it was something like 18 months between issue 6 and 7! Yeah, I think Nonplayer might have the delay record IF #2 ever comes out. Lady Mechanika will be a contender for the record. I thought Aspen went ahead an cancelled Lady Mechanika.

Ryan, does your copy have the printing defect like the phantom variant #1. I just noticed it on some of my raw #6 copies. It is located right above the "K" in Mike on the top of the cover.

Yours? No, Ryan sold his to Hulk44 is sales tread for 1k

I doubt it, Bedlam was hyped for a long time before, and then the NYCC variants being over paid for prior to the launch of the actual book, turned it into an out and out frenzy, plus it had like 7 or 8 covers. EoW will be high because of the cover, and a popular writer, but I would wager it falls around the high teens, maybe low twenties. All that being said, small print runs dont make a book, just like variants dont stop a book. Quality and desirability rule the day. Nick Spencer said offical print run for regular Bedlam was ~24607, so I could see with everyone(boardies and retailers) not wanting to get caught off guard that this could reach 25K+

and the #1 3rd print too.

Probably. Considering people are paying crazy prices for the nowhere men variants right of the gate. That depends on the series, Nowhere Men blew up right out of the gate, if Clone had an RRP it might be a $20+ book but not much more as it has stayed under most peoples radars.

True, but a few weeks ago someone tallied about a 1000 copies preorder just from boardies not counting viperdays large individual order. There will probably be at least a few hundred add between now and monday.

Based on all of this last minute preorder interest the print run is probably going to end up higher than Bedlam.

So here is my most affected MHP#6 as to the rippling/waviness of cover. Full front cover scan Zoomed front cover scan Pic of front cover Full back cover scan Zoomed back cover scan Pic of back cover

I don't think anyone limits preorders, Midtown's new 8 issue limit is for in-stock books. TFAW to my knowledge does not put limits on in-stock books.

half my Image comics end up like that... Possible but this type waviness/rippling is only on this issue and each issue have varying degrees of waviness/rippling. I will post a scan or pic later when I get a chance.

I don't think that 6.0 was midtowns fault. I got an order from TFAW with got a copy just like that. I think this was a Diamond/Print level error. There were a couple on eBay too right when they were released.
