Smart thinking if they think they will sell more TB this way

+1 but damn it, stop with the tentacle growth on Joanne , that's GOT to be some kind of crime

Those covers are AWESOME!

My LC did not get their copies last week, they were told that they should be here Wednesday. If this is happening elsewhere the prices may come down hard later in the week.

Old news. go back and read your posts over the last few weeks , you do nothing but make negative comments. Please try to bring something here rather than just be pain in the

Very well said, Make your own judgment calls on what your buying. But also don't be afraid to bring things to the forums that you think others may find interesting. Don't let the nay-sayers scare you off

The Uncle Scrooge 1:25 variants sell for as much, if not more, than some of the popular Marvel variant artists. I have no interest and see no reason to speculate on any or most of the Marvel variants. You're probably in the wrong thread. Either that or why bother comment if that is your approach? You did ask. I asked for thoughts on speculating on these, simply stating your not interested helps no one, and brings nothing to the table.

IDW Disney On February 2015, it was announced that IDW Publishing made a deal with Disney to continue the publication of the following comic books Uncle Scrooge, Donald Duck, Mickey Mouse, and Walt Disney's Comics and Stories The books were released with three covers; regular , sub and RI The Retailers Incentive Cover is a 1:25. Below are sales figures on these books. I cant but think that, with the low numbers printed, those RI covers have to be something Disney collectors will eventually be scrambling for. And yes I have been buying these. I do not have any for sale now, and do not plan on selling them any time soon. Thoughts?

We are finishing our fourth arc. I think we will pick up more readership. I think we will pick up more readership when the television stuff goes through. I think the book is sustainable, and Michael and I have no intention of stopping. We are going to finish this story one way or another. And that’s not doom and gloom. Fifteen thousand a month is good. It would be nice to have higher numbers. I would happily take Kelly Sue DeConnick numbers. But I think one of the things that– Lazarus isn’t for everyone. Black Magick isn’t for everyone. Stumptown isn’t for everyone. G.D.: How long is the plan for Lazarus? Greg: Issue 20 just got locked for printing. The arc ends with 21. We have another 80 to 130 issues to print. I plan on going 100 to 150 on this. We are sort of at the end of the first act now, and that was the other — you needed to be patient with Lazarus. You didn’t get everything you needed until the end of the third arc. You had to see the Carlyles and you had meet the Barretts so you can see the structure, and you had to see Conclave, so you can see that this is the world, and this is how the world is changing. Only at that point really had I put all of the pieces in play. Awesome interview by the way

Anyone else catch the call out to gamers , Is there a tabletop game in the works?

AAAAARRRRRR May! might as well put the plan here where we can find it easily January - Nadda February - TPB Book 4 (Poison) March - Nadda April - The Lazarus Sourcebook, Vol 1: Carlyle (Collection of information, schematics, and other such items designed to further explicate and expand the world of Year X) May - New Arc starts ( Cull) May - Hardcover; Lazarus: The Second Collection ( Issues 10 through 21, new map)

I would suggest that your TWD comparison works in some way with this book. Its more of a story about what is happening at the time. It fully develops characters with personalities. Its not about one hero or heroine in identifying outfits, but about a story line. And yes the art is frkn fantastic. Read it

hastings is also one you should not ignore, I believe its still had the least graded, and with the white cover.... could be one that may prove hard to get later in high grade. But agree with everyone NYCC, 1A, Phantom, top choices.

Not a word till after Christmas when I see in the Lazyboy chair theater. I am watching this on in luxury. its gonna feel like a waste then when you're setting in that reclining chair and see Luke die within the 1st 5 minutes of the film. like how could he be dispatched so easily. Totally unbelievable... He was right there by the dumpster , why didn't he get under it
