Mijnlamp0310 Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 BTW what about 2nd prints of #2 worth a shot to go for 10 or so copies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comicfan17blue Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) I tried to order 10 #1s and 10 #2s from comix zone when #2 came out and my order was refunded in full a couple hours later. Stated they sell to end users in quantities limited to 1 copy. Edited January 30, 2013 by comicfan17blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ItsJustRyan Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 BTW what about 2nd prints of #2 worth a shot to go for 10 or so copies? Hard to say. Generally 2nd prints are less desirable than first (by a lot), however we are dealing with a mania scenario. I don't have any, but would like 3-4. Your call...

Wushugushu Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) BTW what about 2nd prints of #2 worth a shot to go for 10 or so copies? Hard to say. Generally 2nd prints are less desirable than first (by a lot), however we are dealing with a mania scenario. I don't have any, but would like 3-4. Your call... Yeah there is a frenzy hitting this book now it seems. I talked to my friends that work at my secondary shop and they said they had an unusual amount of customers coming early in the morning just to get #3. Usually they spread out putting new copies on the rack throughout the day so everyone has a chance to get one but they told me they had to put it all up by 1145 due to the rush. They were all gone when I decided to go back at noon and I saw a ton of cars there when i passed it around 11 on the way to the other store. Granted we also have severe tornado warnings and storms going on but that didnt really hit hard till 1 I was the first one at my main store and they only had 3 on the shelf. Guy told me only a couple people other than me have it on pull list but a lot more people have been adding it this week. Good thing I have something awesome coming in the mail this week Edited January 30, 2013 by wushugushu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

THB Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Plenty of # 3's in the S.A. area. # 2 reprint cover is cool. That is all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e.s. Posted January 30, 2013 Share Posted January 30, 2013 Hey, someone pointed this thread out to me and I wanted to first say, thanks for taking the interest in the book. Nate, Steven, Jordie and I are all putting a tremendous amount of work into this, and it's cool that you've decided it's worth collecting. Secondly, since you guys seem to be basing your print run information off the sales estimates posted on ICV2.com and elsewhere, I thought I'd share some info with you. To begin with, those numbers do not encapsulate the entire print for ANY comic. Those are order estimates only, and what's more, they only take into account U.S. orders. Orders made through Diamond UK are not included. What's more, the number that is reported is only what has invoiced through Diamond before the month closes out. Generally speaking, the number reported online represents the orders for a title at the time initial orders are cut off. (This occurs around three weeks before the in-store date.) Beyond that, the copies sent to Diamond do not constitute the entire print run. Image distributes comp copies to a variety of outlets, plus the individual members of the creative team request copies in various amounts. So that said, these are the actual print runs for the book so far: NWM 1 - 13,825 (13,500 to Diamond) NWM 1 Thought Bubble Exclusive - 850 (500 to Thought Bubble) NWM 1 Second Printing - 2,550 (2,400 to Diamond) NWM 2 - 9,350 (9,034 to Diamond) NWM 2 Second Printing - 3,650 (3,400 to Diamond) NWM 3 - 9,347 (9,028 to Diamond) Issue three was sold out at Diamond as of this Monday, and a second printing is on the way. Also, for what it's worth, as of now, it's looking like orders for issue four will be higher than those for issue three. Anyway, thanks again for the support, it means a lot, but also -- save some copies for others. As you know, the value on books like this is only sustained if the book is successful, and the only way NWM will be successful over the long haul is a) if we do our jobs and make it good, and b) new readers continue to discover it. -e.s.
