Rhymenoceros Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 (edited) All of my Blank covers also have the same "infamous #4 crease" starting on the 2nd, full-color cover. (I'm sure everyone knows about this, but Image apparently always does the double covers for their blanks now, as TWD 109 is the same.) The outside blank covers are just peachy though!

Spawnyboy-migration Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Hey fellas, I'm new to the boards. I was just wondering if anyone has seen Dragotta's twitter pic of the blue #4, is it a con variant? I apologize if this has been answered earlier.

I apologize if this has been answered earlier. Welcome to the boards (WTTB)! I haven't seen it, but someone else probably has and can answer your question. Can you post a pic here?

bffnut Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 I think this is what he is referring to. I have no idea what it is. Maybe a second print? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spawnyboy-migration Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Yes that's the one, thank you, I'm at "work" and couldnt pull up twitter... I would hope he wouldn't just change the color for variants, seeing as the variant covers for #1 are by far the best so far IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balham's Finest Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 Yes that's the one, thank you, I'm at "work" and couldnt pull up twitter... I would hope he wouldn't just change the color for variants, seeing as the variant covers for #1 are by far the best so far IMHO. Well, all the further printings (as opposed to variants) so far have been the same cover with a different colour. Pretty sure that's what you're looking at in that pic.

Rhymenoceros Posted July 16, 2013 Share Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) http://www.ebay.com/itm/EAST-of-WEST-Blank-VARIANT-Sketch-Cover-Issue-4-IMAGE-/251304807504?pt=US_Comic_Books&hash=item3a82ef0c50 Sketch by an ebayer (not me), though by the description in the auction they don't understand the book very well, and Death is portrayed kind of oddly. Nonetheless, pretty nice work otherwise. (thumbs u There aren't any bids on it yet, but I'm not sure about the rules on posting current auctions here. If a mod feels the post should be deleted, no worries. Don't want to step on any toes Edited July 16, 2013 by Rhymenoceros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taco Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 Q. Publisher's Weekly just published their Annual Comics Retailer Survey and noted that "Saga" is one of the most requested books in the 10 stores surveyed. What is it about that book that continues to draw people in, and are there plans to capitalize on that in an effort to introduce readers to similar books from Image? A. I think that's already happening with "Saga," just as it happened with "The Walking Dead." I think it will happen with "East of West," too, because that book is currently tracking very similarly to "Saga." I think what Brian and Fiona are doing on "Saga" is contagious, not just in terms of building the readership for that book, but in raising people's expectations. You read something as accessible and well-considered as "Saga" and it makes you want more comics like that. Well, it just so happens, we've got more where that came from. http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=46678 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe he luvs <3 him some robots!! http://www.midtowncomics.com/store/dp.asp?PRID=East+Of+West+%236_1281105 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebtorres Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 The Ranger looks like a bad-! I have a feeling I'm gonna enjoy that character like I enjoy The Will and Lying Cat on Saga. I'm looking forward to issue #6! By the way, I'm hyped because I just checked and I have two blue label 9.8 RRP's coming back to me from CGC!!!

Rhymenoceros Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 (edited) Got this in the mail the other day. Graded RRP is out of reach so this is my realistic EoW grail. Big thanks to Felix on this one! Edited July 19, 2013 by Rhymenoceros Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gradejunky Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 I still have to read #4. I flipped through it and it looks interesting. I'm not gonna lie when I say I find the book a little confusing. Maybe I just need to read the trade when it drops and maybe it'll make more sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
