seanfingh Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I ordered some from various Ebay sources of the store variants. The ones I got from Bobs Hobbies came in yesterday. They were well packaged and shipped, but they show the same type of typical damage. Mostly 9.4-9.6 copies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red_Hood Posted October 25, 2013 Author Share Posted October 25, 2013 To get back on topic a little. Has anyone heard the reason the publisher decided to issue the book every 6 weeks instead of monthly? Will there be variant covers to issue #2? I hope it's just a regular, single issue from #2 onwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan. Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 There's a Seeley variant for issue 2. The 1.5 month schedule is likely necessary for the artist to have the time he needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeff Bohn Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 To get back on topic a little. Has anyone heard the reason the publisher decided to issue the book every 6 weeks instead of monthly? Yes, Diamond had mention of it... In order to allow this phenomenal creative team to provide the same level of quality on subsequent issues that they did on issue #1, Archie has adjusted the release schedule from monthly to every six weeks. The revised schedule is as follows: #2 on-sale moves from 11/13/13 to 11/20/13 (AUG130985 & AUG130986) #3 on-sale moves from 12/11/13 to 1/1/14 (SEP130883 & SEP130884) Issue #4 is being re-solicited in the November PREVIEWS (#302) with new order codes. I'd rather keep the same art team and have it come out a little slower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legion HQ Posted October 25, 2013 Share Posted October 25, 2013 I received an email from my Archie order yesterday stating that the remaining copies of their Life With Archie 23 variant cover are damaged, and asked if I still wanted to go through with my order (for 4 copies).
