Sesame Street Launches Its First Comic With Six Issues... And A Hardcover?

[Rich Johnston]

Sesame Street: I Is For Imagination launches as a comic book from Ape Entertainment in April. As well as five regular covers at $3.99, there's a chase cover for every retailer who orders all 5 other covers, a 1 in 300 cover for retailers who decide to go nuts deep on this thing, and a hardcover version, featuring the comic and an extra story, for people who, well, like kids comics to look like kids books, for $7.99.

That's becoming a more common price point, that last one...

First comic? Hardly:

Not American. Doesn't count.

I'm in the for the hardcover.

Six issues and a hardcover?

Cool cool.

I fail to see how the 1971 THE MONSTER AT THE END OF THIS BOOK starring Grover isn't a comic book.

That said, Mebberson's art is cute, so I might give it a look in some form.
