  1. How did they do it before computers and credit?
  2. That's irrelevant. The books were not printed last April.
  3. They have variant covers if you did that. I don't recall extra material.
  4. Doesn't the 2nd sell for about $40 with no meaningful content (that I am aware of)? Doesn't seem undervalued to me.
  5. 4:45 We were meant to launch in April 2020. 15:25 (in regards to orders) "We did our best guess at what stores would order." 16:08 "What we are trying to do is get the books in the hands of readers." So, they had almost a year to plan for this and still shorted shops by not creating a true FOC and printing before orders were in. Take what you will from that about "get the books in the hands of reader"....
  6. I don't see how is cynicism when that is exactly what they asked readers to do.
  7. Walmart Exclusive promotional mini comic originally included with Ultimate Edition Blu-Ray set.
  8. Their whole idea was to change the way things were done. Which they did. But some are not sure that it was done with the best intentions. Also, people don't like change in general.
  9. Hollywood follows trends in what works and what people want to see. They then try to find comics that fit that niche.
  10. Not really. There are lots of books that get optioned before they are even released. Owner has their own production company and is already established. So, no again.
  11. Boom recently did this with a subsequent printing of Once & Future #1. Not the first print though.
  12. Why does that matter if they ordered it? So they did intentionally create an allocated / short print?
  13. Marvel or DC has done this recently. I don't recall what book it was for. Either way, I don't understand the logic of a 1st and 2nd print releasing on the same day. If the book has not been released why would you not print more to meet the initial demand?
  14. They don't say 500 print. They state is as 500 sold.
  15. Somebody got their salami in the wringer.
  16. I did. I used the word "variant" though which none of those variants use. Surprising anyone found them.
  17. Bill hasn't been passed yet. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/third-stimulus-check-when-will-you-get-1400-2021-03-01/ edit: Ah, yes, it could be from your yearly tax refund.
  18. Yes, Diamond. Correct, sports cards as well. This is the same at Target.
