Lazarus - New Image book by Greg Rucka and Michael Lark 0

[natevegas]

If it keeps getting rating like those it'll be a massive hit! (thumbs u

Glad I pre-ordered some.

[Awax]

It's a image book. There will be plenty.

[500Club]

So Lazarus is already getting 10/10 ratings. I wasn't impressed with the preview, but I guess I'll see on Wednesday.

Rucka and Lark are a great team. Think Brubaker/Phillips. I wasn't impressed by the preview, but I expect the book will be good.

 

There will, however, be a zillion copies ordered, especially if fully returnable.

how many variants are we looking at?

[Jimmy Linguini]

You know what sucks? Criminal #1 is only worth $5.99.

 

I ordered 5 copies of this title but I'm not expecting "big tings".

AND IT STARTS

 

 

CBLDF is excited to launch a new program in cooperation with our Retail Member Stores: the CBLDF COMICS CODE VARIANT! These variant covers of today’s hottest books will include the infamous Comics Code Authority Seal of Approval and will only be available through CBLDF Retail Members!

 

[Jimmy Linguini]

Wait

 

you're going to tell me Lazarus is going to have a CBLDF variant and it looks like this:

 

 

So the variant is just the exact same cover as the regular edition except with a "approved by the comics code" and a statue of liberty CBLDF logo?

 

Pretty wildly_fanciful_statement if you ask me. Really really wildly_fanciful_statement.

[Emezy360]

YOU ARE CORRECT GOOD SIR

[ranx]

My LCS ordered around 700 to 1000 copies of this title. He thinks it going to be just as big as East of West

 

 

This comic might have returnability so your LCS will just have to pay the shipping...

[rjpb]

I'll probably buy this if it's crime oriented at all. Rucka is a solid crime writer, and Lark is a top-notch artist.

Very cool cover! I like!

How limited?

Just read this, thought it was really great. Definitely in for #2.

Good to hear. Between this and Think Tank #8 (end of Genetics arc), I've been looking forward to this week all month.

[Katchoo]

I might get slaughtered for saying this because there are no similarities in theme or story but it gave me a slight TWD vibe simply because of the strength of the characters and their emotions, along with the violence.

 

Don't let that put you off if you don't like TWD (I'm one of the few that doesn't) but I can appreciate the focus on characters in TWD and I hope Lazarus sticks to that because it's already done a great job in just one issue. It read slightly like an "intro" and possibly could have benefited from being a double issue but I think it has worked well enough as a single issue on it's own. The more I think about it, the more pumped I am for it. I think this could be a winner.

Yeah, that's a good question. What's the print run?

 

How limited?

[Jimmy Linguini]

I read it.

 

I didn't not enjoy it and it wasn't confusing at all.

 

I read it last night and have been thinking about it a lot.

 

7 out of 10. Yeah, I'll give it 7 out of 10.

 

Why so high? well a girl is the main character

why so low? altered reality

[buddymagoo]

Really stand out book and after reading the back pages I am floored. Most exciting book of the year for me! 9.5/10
