Secret from Image Comics

[Balham's Finest]

Barring an announcement that Bodenheim has rediscovered his work ethic and drawn up the next 5 issues, I very much doubt there's going to be much interest. Most of the people who picked up 1 and 2 will have forgotten it.

 

I'll buy it just to find out what would have happened. Think it's a real shame this one couldn't continue.

I'll grab a copy to see what would have happened, but I doubt anybody will care to pick this up. Too much time as gone by for anybody to really notice/care.

I thought E.S. said at C2E2 that Bodenheim had health issues and that's why it was never finished.

Looks like you're right - just found this on Bleeding Cool:

 

We also got an update on the Jonathan Hickman, Ryan Bodenheim & Michael Garland series Secret, which stalled two issues in. Stephenson stated that Ryan had health issues preventing him from work, that the third issue will be resolicited for August and that issues 1 and 2 are both still available from Image.

 

Well, now I feel bad for suggesting he is lazy. In my defence, Hickman wasn't forthcoming about the reason for the delays, and definitely gave the impression (to me, anyway) that Bodenheim was just slow. And Red Mass for Mars was repeatedly delayed too.

Didn't think this would see the light of day again. Really keen to keep reading it.

[Chiefs1313]

I really liked the start if the series it would be great to see a few story arcs.

[awakeintheashes]

Hickman's ongoing is back on track or what? Can't seem to dig up any recent news about the status of this series.

 

I'll have re-read 1 and 2 just to remember what it was all about.

 

bumping to discuss.

 

I think #3 just wraps up the story.

Hmmm. I think awhile back they were just going to do a "what could have been" issue #3 to wrap things up but after reading an article with Hickman [wherever I read it ] I had the distinct feeling thats not the case anymore. Something about the artist being super sick but better now so they were getting back to it.

 

I could be wrong as Im just going off memory but Im pretty sure I didnt read it wrong

Please, please let that be the case. The story was off to a great start, and the art was nice and clean.

Not sure if anyone else noticed, but Secret #4 has been resolicited for September - so maybe the series isn't dead yet!

"NOCTURNAL"

Everything clicks into place as we discover who's really behind KodiaK. Someone lives. Someone dies. Someone knows...a secret.

[THE LAUGHING M4N]

I thought the first issue was one of a small handful in 2012/2013 that actually made me want to read the next issue rather buy out of compulsion (My standing order was around 35+ until a few weeks ago)

 

Hope this one gets back on a regular schedule, I'm looking forward to it

Issue #5 out in October and it looks like this is on going!

 

Awesomesauce

[Balham's Finest]

BOOM!

 

(if true)

[BizarroChuck]

Yeah it looks to be ongoing. I picked up a 9.8 1 and a couple raw candidates just in case

 

It's a good read so far. Can't wait to see what's next

[manetteska]

More Hickman.

[Solar]

no one will be able to remember what happened in the first couple issues. Hope they release it along with a reprint or two.

I saw solicitations for #'s 1 and 2 3rd printings being realeased at/before the same time #3 is supposed to drop. Midtown still has all the issues/printings for less than cover. I'd say I'd order a couple more, but my online comic shopping luck is never good. I'm tired of beaters showing up at my door that were bought as "NM"!!!

.....and Midtown has been killing me lately. 5 out of the last 7 orders have been beat. Sending a long box packed with damaged books on Monday.

[VEI Reborn]

Cant wait for issue #3 next week!

[mysterio]

I may see if my LCS still has copies of #1-2 for a reread. I sold mine months ago when this book flatlined, but I was really enjoying it up to that point. Glad to see it coming back.
