What's it like getting comics in the mail? And over a week after they were released? There must be SOME comic store you could go to. It's not like mine is in my neighborhood. It's like 30 minutes away. I make an adventure out of it.


I get almost all of mine in the mail.

They're always perfectly packaged (but I don't get them until 5 days after release).

It's worth it though because they're 40% off.

Anyway, just caught up on my pulls, finally had a chance to get to the shop, and because I forgot to get Spaceman off my pull it was there, so I figured I'd give it one more shot, and actually, this issue wasn't as bad as the first and it actually looks like it might be going somewhere interesting, we'll see. Finally got an issue of Batman Odyssey but it was #2 and there is no way that I am reading that before I get issue 1. Still enjoying Red Lanterns, and probably will as long as they focus on Atrocitus. Batwing was quite good, and I still think Massacre is his brother. Can't wait for the inevitable Animal Man/Swampthing crossover. Action Comics was enjoyable, so was JLI, I still think Peraxus looks like Mongol. Stormwatch was pretty good. Finally there was Penguin being Penguin and me enjoying every second.

Shipping depends on if you get it all sent out at then end of the month or if you get bi-weekly or weekly shipments.

I get weekly shipments but each shipment is around 12 comics so it's still a really good deal.

Plus, no tax.

Does your LCS give any type of discount?

Mine is just a flat 10% for anybody who has a pull list.

I have heard of some places that give scaled discounts up to like 30% (I think it might have been icon who said his gives you 1% per title on your list up to 30%).

If mine had that, I would definitely stick with them for everything.

But I buy too many to only be getting 10% off when I could get 40%.

http://www.newsarama.com/comics/rood-wayne-dc-november-sales-111209.html

- DC will probably be ending some of the lower-selling New 52 titles around issue #8, and those will most likely be replaced by other new titles.

So what's getting cut?

I could see Men of War getting cut, since they have the Robinson and Krul issues announced, but have yet to state that they're ongoing writers.

Well, dammit, I'd say, probably pick the bottom selling 5 or so and those will probably be the ones dropped. Not sure if they will go more that that.

Also, on my poster train of thought, I really don't understand why DC doesn't release some of those covers as posters, they could make some serious money on that.

I would pay good cash for that GL#1 Capullo variant as a poster, along with all the Frankenstein covers and this months Men of War cover

I'm pretty sure there are places that will make these for you.

It's a returnable book, meaning the presented sales are a 15% reduction of the actual sales to make up for possible future returns. DTEC's actual rank may very well be higher than shown here, we won't know until the actual numbers come out and we add 15%.

It's a pain in the ****ing ass is what it's like. I pay $2.50 for the comic and then like 6 ****in dollars for shipping. There is a comic shop about 20 minutes away but I crashed my car a few months ago, so I'd have to borrow my wife's car but I can't on her work days, and even on her days off I don't always have time to go. I don't want to take a chance that I'd miss an issue of TMNT because I couldn't get to the comic shop for a couple weeks (yeah yeah pull lists, but I've seen comic shops sell people's pulls if they don't pick em up for a few days). So until we get a new car I'm ordering TMNT in the mail.

Hahahahaha.

That chart is just awful though. I love how every data point is the lowest-selling issue of ASM each month. Just imagine how it would look if you used the HIGHEST-selling issue each month! And, added bonus, to the untrained eye who doesn't realize that ASM publishes multiple times in a month, that note can make you think that ASM is the lowest-selling issue IN ALL OF COMICS EVERY MONTH!

That's what we call unbiased data.

THE NEW DEADWARDIANS #1
Written by DAN ABNETT
Art and cover by I. N. J. CULBARD
1:10 Variant cover by CLIFF CHIANG
On sale MARCH 28 • 32 pg, FC, 1 of 8, $2.99 US • MATURE READERS
Retailers: This issue will ship with two covers. Please see the order form for more information.
Another vampire/zombie comic? Really, Vertigo?
Trust us. This is different.
In post-Victorian England, nearly everyone of the upper classes has voluntarily become a vampire to escape the lower classes who are all zombies.
Into this simmering cauldron is thrust Chief Inspector George Suttle, a lonely detective who’s got the slowest beat in London: investigating murders in a world where everyone is already dead!
But when the body of a young aristocrat washes up on the banks of the Thames, Suttle’s quest for the truth will take him from the darkest sewers to the gleaming halls of power, and reveal the rotten heart at the center of this strange world.
THE NEW DEADWARDIANS is brought to vivid life by fan-favorite writer Dan Abnett (RESURRECTION MAN, LEGION LOST) with art by newcomer I. N. J. Culbard (At The Mountains of Madness).

Damn you right. dammit Bendis better stay the hell away from him. It was and should continue be very interesting to see Pooky as a hero. I really liked how the AoA people were all like our universe is completely screwed so we may as well go all out protectecting another universe that runs the risk of being in the same situation.
