the authority Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 i knew you werent talking about the RRP there are plenty of options for EoW #1, i'd go with RRP, FP, Ghost, then basic Why does the FP bring more than the Ghost issue ? Is it a print run issue or what ? IIRC the FP variant has a print run of 1000 and Ghost is 5000 Thanks, that is quite different from what I was expecting and also means the regular cover sales are fairly consitant from issue 1 to issue 6. Do you have any idea what the blank cover #4 print run was in total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im betting it in the 15k range though judging by the other issue sales break vs. jump for issue 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThoseBackPages Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 I just think first appearances are going to mean more in EoW than Saga... seems more meaningful for some reason. So the RRP is Hurk's first appearance, as he is on the Cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, I agree. No doubt the RRP will always be the most desirable EOW book. On the other hand, you could buy about 65 - 70 copies of #6 for about the same as 1 copy of the RRP. If the #6 turns into a $10 book, you could sell them and by 2 RRPs. Ifs and buts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackhartmann Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 This issue was a letdown. It makes it seem the first five were a mini and then they extended it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best get ready to RUN SON! It just proves that you can't please everybody all of the time. I loved it and to me it was more of a purposeful twist. They have introduced a huge number of characters and territories in the first 6 issues so there are lots of edges to the story that will over time work themselves out. The more it grows the better it is imho. Dragotta spoke about 50 issues so I don't think they are going to show all of their cards too early.

Zandri-migration Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 This issue was a letdown. It makes it seem the first five were a mini and then they extended it. I didn't get that feeling at all, found #6 to be a great issue as always - must go back and read it again. Out of all the great stuff that came out this week, EoW was first off my pile to read, can't get enough of this series at the moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the authority Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Hickman said in an interview that they were going to incentivize the heck out of #6. That could mean returnable but I'm not positive. Either way, I think this is a great book to buy and not just for the story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
