Mmanick Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Without getting into politics is anyone going to be buying this one ? I've already placed a pull at my lcs for it. I think it looks pretty good and am glad to see a cool approach once again in comics. Azkaban 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was going to pick up a copy of the regular cover (which is now sold out) here......but the $35 cost plus tax and shipping turned into almost $50. Looks interesting though.....and I like the idea and concept......but that was a bit too much for me to spend on a new comic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says they've pulled in over $3,000,000 on a campaign goal of just $100,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a feeling this is going to be a kick arse old school type of story. I'm thinking maybe so it's so people don't try and spec buy only the 1st issue. I'm not sure maybe you check an lcs around that will potentially do a pull list on it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D84 Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 (edited) I ordered one. Story looks interesting and I wanted to support a fellow Texan. Also, he said he is leaving political grandstanding out of his comics. Edited July 22, 2022 by D84 Kizarny, BuraddoRun and Mmanick 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without regard to my personal feelings on the issue, I do suspect the political element encouraged quite a few of the book's supporters, just as it was responsible for the burst in interest/market value for Cyberfrog books a little while back. awakeintheashes and Juno Beach 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
