With only 250 copies not like there will be a massive flood.....only 27 graded right now

 

True... lower print run than the EoW rrp... Somebody here said it... this is the Manifest Destiny version of the RRP

 

Can we just redefine RRP to mean the lowest print run and most desirable variant for a title? :P

Yeah, I'm sorry, but I'm not buying this hype. Comparing this to EoW or Saga?! What? How many people have read all 3 issues? Love the art, concept is cool, but this book is not that good in my opinion. I agree, speculators are ready for the next hot RRP, but that doesn't translate to sustainability for this series. I'm sure I'll take a lotta for this post, but I'm just not buying all the hype: image expo excitement is still fresh, speculators (myself included) are looking for a hit after the bleak winter season, but I don't think this'll be it...it's simply not very good of a book.

 

Rant over...cheers, here's to all my sets selling quickly on eBay before people actually open this book. lol

Translation... I didn't buy any Manifest Destiny when it first came out.

 

As a professionally trained historian, I think the use of history as a backdrop for a story is brilliant and love the way they did it.

Disagree.

 

Completely.

 

And that's fine, I figured most people would disagree with me. I just think there's some factors to consider before people invest too much into this series. I'm sitting on a stack just like everyone else here, and I'm enjoying that it's selling above cover, but I wouldn't want to be the one sitting on a $500+ RRP for this title. 2c

Not true, bought more #1s for MD than any other 2013 image title. LOVED issue 1, but 3 issues in and I'm feeling different, that's all.
