ItsJustRyan Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 the cover of previews will push it above bedlam, it wont reach saga levels. 25-28K estimates that people are throwing out is like the spot it will land. I agree with those numbers (even though I am basically throwing a dart at a board with print runs listed on it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miso Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 Huh, I wouldn't mind one, but the cover is pretty damn sweet on #1 so it would be hard to top that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastballspecial Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 We are Off topic here a bit. Yes, East of West will be heavily ordered for a Image book....50K+ BUT if the story is great ...that number will be gobbled up by all, Collectors/speculators/dealers etc. This is a BUY IMO and will be a nice secondary market for those that chose to flip. 50K is way off lucky if its 1/2 of that.

Beige Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 50,000 - you sir are having a Giraffe! And you claim to have ordered 1% of the print run? I hope your 500 copies are all 9.8's and smell of roses. If its above 15k I will be amazed. Just because we have ordered some means nothing. 2 or 3 store in the major cities in OZ will order their usual 3 or 4 and see where it goes. I imagine the same for the USA. There are a fair few cowboy/sci-fi titles around, so the impact of another one will be minimal. If Image get extra requests for copies,sure maybe a 8,000 second print. Our total on here had reached 533, and if this new guy is genuine,then we have cracked the 1,000 mark. So we have pre-ordered 2% of the run @50,000 or 17% at 15,000. Either way,theres a lot left for the general public. We are less than 0.5% of the comic consumer population at best on here (I completely made that up btw) so there are a lot of people out there that are only going to grab one because the cover rocks. If its a pile of dufuss then it will bomb. If its good,then I'll have my slabs ready to sell - just like Bedlam. Saga's print run won't be the opening run number for many comics this decade,let alone this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
