I haven't even read it yet, but I figure it's never too early. What do you think of it?

[NewEnglandGothic]

Haven't read it. Sold out at my LCS.

[Boozad]

There are actually none on eBay UK. Pre-orders for #2 but no #1s.

I picked up a copy at my LCS and just finished reading it.

 

So a few comments without giving away anything yet.

 

I enjoyed the book. It flowed well and the art is a little different. I personally didnt care for it, but it didnt take away from the story. The book is oversized so that too will be an interesting development. This book will take a few issues before I can see how much I like it. It didnt hook me like Morning Glories did, but it left me wanting more. I am interested enough to buy the entire series after the first issue.

Or at least issue 2 to see where it goes.I love the cover its haunting in a way. It has a kinda Vertigish feel that will appeal to alot of alternative comic lovers as well. My LCS sold out in a few hours.

 

There was suppossed to be some type of contest as well, but didnt ready anything about it in the first issue.

You need to be quicker with your poking.

I bought the book because of the cover. I haven't read the book yet but I really like the cover art.

Do you know if we can get CGC grade those? I mean they are larger than current comics, more like cowboy Viking ninja. I check the census and there is only one cowboy ninja Viking graded

What's it about?

 

The 1st issue is about a musician (guitarist) who was in a band that got real famous. It then flash forwards a year and the main character has lost the ability to move his left hand. (They quoted some medical condition.) He goes to visit a "special" healer, and to keep this post spoiler free lets just say the story goes on from there.

 

It was a decent read. I don't know if it's worth the hype, but it is worth the read.

Anyone else have printer creases on their back covers? All the copies at my LCS had the same (what appear to be) printer creases to varying degrees. Wondering if defects hit the whole run or just ones in my area.

At least if people are interested they can readily buy it, looks to be a couple of hundred up for sale currently...

I bought two. I guess I gave into the hype. I'll wait and see what happens to the hundred or so copies listed on e-bay before I either sell mine or throw them away.

[Transplant]

Anyone have any print numbers?

[A-DONIS]

I just saw that there are 104 listings on e-bay. I wonder where all those "sold" copies went to?

 

Vultures!

[the blob]

could someone please post a stock image of the cover that i can borrow? there was one in the locked thread i think, but i can't get at it now.

 

thanks
