ItsJustRyan Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Nice Andy. You'll be fine with those, no worries. Bedlam is one of THE BEST new books of 2012. Things can happen overnight. Look at the insanity that is happening to SAGA, Manhattan Projects,and Peter Panzerfaust. Bedlam (IMHO), is better than at least one (PP), maybe two (MP), of those titles.

gaz2810i Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I haven't read PP but I have read Saga, MP, Bedlam and Revival IMO, right now Saga is worthy of the top honour of best new image title of 2012. I would then go Revival, Bedlam, MP. However, that's only my opinion and with these being as good as they are I can see everyone listing these in different orders due to personal taste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just worry about so many different covers. I think I would rather have 8 reprints then 7 normal covers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz2810i Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 For my own memory I wanted to list all the covers Regular NYCC NYCC Sketch Detroit Fanfare Forbidden Planet Third eye Phantom 2nd print Damn that is a lot, still doesn't stop me enjoying it though and seeing as I'm not speculating and simply collecting it doesn't annoy me, although my OCD does I can't afford all of these and wish I didn't care Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ItsJustRyan Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Hey Pike- I was referring to story content, not covers or value. The overkill of #1 covers for Bedlam was extremely ambitious and presumptive (and as a collector a bit of a turn off - "so you've got a unknown pressumably hot new title and you want me to buy HOW MANY variants right out of the gate??" We've beat that horse to death again and again. I like that titles like Think Tank and Saga only have one variant that makes it exclusive for die hard fans (and people really chase after them - which is fun).

CBT Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) Andy, not sure if its private, but i doubt you submitted also those yourself (unless you do a huge pre-screen), so do you mind if I ask who facilitated that many for you? In my head I picture a PM like: "DRE, subscribe me to Bedlam please, SEVENTY-FIVE TIMES " Edited January 27, 2013 by CBT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krighton Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 i'm speculating on Bedlam, just not completely sold on the story...one of the few times i've purchased a largish quantity without really loving what i'm reading. But here's to it being a big succcess (eventually). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had forgotten about the Special Edition I don't think I would want 2 forbidden planets although I will most likely want an blue label one at some point and settle for a raw signed.

ItsJustRyan Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 Since we are talking about it, what's you favorite #1 variant cover? I like Third Eye (second would be NYCC regular) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBT Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 forbidden planet for sure, i found the image on the artists blog in September and started trying to find out which variant it would be. (I was also the first Bedlam subscriber with DRE). It's truly a shame what they did with the signings, so the Blues of that are imo the best looking and rarest variant.

Can't wait - back to the story - 2 best images... 1) The Cats 2) PUT MY HEAD BACK ON.....that genuinely shook me, you could almost hear the rage in Madder Reds voice.
