awakeintheashes Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I also think that the drab gray/pink color scheme on each cover hurts. Nothing that makes the cover "pop", and since they all blend together, it can be hard to tell them apart unless you are paying attention. Very easy to forget which drab cover is issue 2, and which drab cover is issue 3, etc. plasticmoz - Thanks! Yes, he did this at the con. I agree with you on this. It is hard to tell the first prints apart when looking at shelves filled with comics. I can see how someone could just overlook #3 thinking that it was #2. I know because it happened to me when I was in a semi-rush during my Wednesday lunch run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solar Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Maybe this series will be one of those exceptions where the 2nd prints become more desirable than the first prints on the secondary market. They have tiny print runs and MUCH better covers by the interior artist/co-creator of Madder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colicab Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 The covers are really cool but, I always feel like we have already "been there, done that" every time I see a Bedlam cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are really good at (a) pimping your books, and (b) insulting board members that would otherwise potentially be your customers. Do you have anything else to contribute?

carter3175 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 The one thing I keep in the back of my head is them ending this series. I want this book to go on for as long as I have money to spend on it. I mean come on, we have a zombie book with a 100+ issues. By no means am I knocking that, but it would be nice to see some long term books out there. If I am not mistaken, the longest running series is Spawn, followed by Walking Dead and Invincible? Am I missing something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solar Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Savage Dragon is still going at #188 although I don't know too many people who read it. There's another Image book, Elephant Men that's on #47. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
