The Morning Glories Thread

got my #1 today, and so far I am a fan. I need to preorder #2 to make sure I get it before it sells out again.

What was the print run for the first print and second print?

[Silent Master]

Image Comics is rushing to press a third printing of MORNING GLORIES #1, written by Nick Spencer and drawn by Joe Eisma with covers by Rodin Esquejo. The third printing of MORNING GLORIES #1 will be available the same day as issue #2, September 15.

 

From Image's web-site... Crazy huh?

Nope - can't find any info on those numbers... EDIT - Just found some numbers - 1st print run was 17,000

 

I haven't seen a 1st print copy sell for less than $26 on Fee-Bay this week - the word of mouth is starting to lead to big hype.

That's what everyone said when Chew came out. Look at the book now.

[N/A]

Chew was over $75 by now and has a smaller print run

[A-DONIS]

I remember that it took Chew a couple of weeks for it to climb up though. I don't remember anyone paying $75 for a raw Chew book three weeks after it was released.

And a smaller audience.

Need to work on the memory skills Adonis It was up over $50 within a week.

Where did you find your numbers? That 17K seems waaaaay high.

Chew was over $75 by now and has a smaller print run

 

Nope. Your timeline is way off. 2 weeks after release, Chew was about a $15 book. I'm sure I can go back and find my sales in paypal, but I was able to snatch up 11 copies up to 3 weeks after it came out and it was selling for $15-25 online.

 

It wasn't at $50 a week after release.

 

Chew started going higher once people were able to read the later printings.

 

Amazingly, this book is ahead of the Chew curve. Will it last? It depends on whether the next few issues are good (particularly #2).
