krighton Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I think it's an assumption since there seems to be no perceived limit to variants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taco Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I read on Bleeding Cool that the Phantom variant is going to be 60 connecting issues. The first one is going to be the main character on his bike and the next 59 are just going to be the dust path he left behind when riding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krighton Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 with the shipping fees from the UK that's not a bad deal really.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John91C Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I think some were saying in the 50k range. I said it was going to be about 45-50K about 2 months ago...people called me crazy. I still think it will get near the 40K mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point Five Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I ordered 15 books from Forbidden Planet UK last fall and the shipping charge was £ 22.00 = about $33 US. Wouldn't be surprised if it's ticked up a bit higher since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CBT Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 my print run prediction is in the first few pages and I remain unchanged in my opinion. Only question mark is the hickman interview, but i dont think it was a literal "3x", just an expression. There are three variants, not 4, and none of them originated by hickman, so i think his original tweet remains true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine he has to have some approval for them if he really owns East of West. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tuff Ghost Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 TBP asked Hickman on twitter yesterday about the variants. Sounds like he was offered to do more variants but declined. The ones he did do are for stores that support him and people he does business with. It doesn't sound like there are any other variants at this time.

BizarroChuck Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 My LCS is so strange. There were only 5 of these on the shelf at opening today, but they still had 10+ Five Ghosts. I'll never get these guys... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awakeintheashes Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 I have a feeling the print run is around 38K... I don't think stores are bold enough yet to order super heavy on an Image #1 like they were in the 90s. Sure there are some stores in the know about what will be hot, but many are probably ordering to their base, which gobbles up the big 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
