This is the cover to the February 2016 Judge Dredd comic book from US publisher IDW, folded out, back and front. Which means, if you don’t care about the condition of the comic, you can rip it off the staples, fol it, stick it own and send it to someone you fancy. If they turn you […]
If you recall, we ran a piece on Loot Crate’s March offerings, speculating that there may be an exclusive copy of the IDW comic book Orphan Black #1 in there, and wondering what the effect on the market might be as a result. Well, I think we can take this as evidence that there is […]
Five hours till the February deadline for ordering your Loot Crate this month. So what do you get? Let’s see what we can work out from these three pieces of exuberant PR copy.

So, Star Wars #1, with its many covers and many locations, will sell over a million copies. This we know. But will Star Wars #2 be the biggest dropoff in sales of any comic book ever? It also has multiple covers, (including one from Berke Breathed) but not quite the intensity… Well, this is how […]
We ran the Top Ten comics and marketshare for Diamond Comic Distribution’s operations in North America in February 2014 last Friday.

Joker’s Daughter and Ms Marvel one shots to start, but Harley Quinn continues […]

This morning I learned that DC Comics, are planning both Batman: The Joker’s Daughter and Superman: Lois Lane comics for February. Possibly one shots, themed for Valentine’s Day, I’m sure we’ll discover more this week… It would certainly make a good replacement book for Catwoman writer Ann Nocenti, after Katana was cancelled (apparently it was […]
They’re not the Ghostbusters. They’re not the Real Ghostbusters. They’re the New Ghostbusters. Coming in February from IDW. Written by Erik Burnham, drawn by Dan Schoening and Luis Antonio Delgado….
Retailers have been complaining about the DC New 52 fifth week. When a month has five Wednesdays, with all the New 52 titles slotted into the first four weeks, it leaves kids books, Vertigo titles and the lower selling non-52 comics, which don’t quite have the punch to the pocket that the New 52 comics […]
Three books, four covers, from Dynamite, shipping in February, First up, Jennifer Blood #12, a cover by Tim Bradstreet. And the lady in question is in her underwear. Relatively lacy underwear at that. And blood. I’m not sure if this comic actually needs a Mature Readers label. Possibly, though this second cover by Ale Garza […]

There were three mysterious TBA items on Marvel’s retailer order form for February 2011. Yesterday, Marvel filled in two of these. Herc #1 and #2, spinning out of the cosmic Chaos War storyline.
