Some people just want to watch the world burn. |
Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
Yeah it doesn't make much sense. If he was giving the money to charity wouldn't he want to get as much money as possible? A microwaved comic in 0.5 condition isn't going to get as much money as a 9.5 condition comic.
The day after that comic came out, it was selling for upwards of $50 on ebay. Some even went for over $100. This microwaved copy went for $17.50. |

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
All of the "Why did he ..." questions have already been answered by Valeyard. It's Rich Johnston. He does that sort of thing.
|
Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
Maybe Rich will start microwaving lost Doctor Who episodes.
Here's a Youtube video of me microwaving the only known copy of "Power of the Daleks" episode one. It was recently recovered in Africa, and there are no copies. Will this destroy it? I have no idea, but I'll put it up on eBay and you can find out if you're the highest bidder. |

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
He should get a copy of Action Comics #1 (1939) and microwave it. There's an estimated one hundred copies left in existence in the entire world, but this would be the one and only copy that has been microwaved!

https://twitter.com/Ssnyder1835/stat...28006172200961 plus you have all that extra money from buying all the villains issues last month, right? ;) |
Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
WTF is up with the B&W variant cover of Batman #24?
TFAW shows the retail price as $74.99. Surely that's a misplaced period, and the actual retail price is $7.49. |
Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
It's a 1:100 variant. Does TFAW never gouge variant covers or something? That sounds like something a normal comic store would do for a variant incentive cover.

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
Marvel just upped the price on Infinity #6 from $4.99 to $5.99. Boo-urns!

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
Retailer Brian Hibbs offers some hard (and surprising) numbers for "Villains Month."
http://www.savagecritic.com/retailin...illains-month/ Well, the previous “normal” issue of BATMAN (#23), ICv2 reports 128,230 copies ordered for the four “Batman” issues of VM? ICv2 reports: Joker: 107,680 Riddler: 107,413 Bane: 95,298 Penguin: 89,850 So, therefore, DC expected to sell no more than 85% of Batman on JOKER, and 70% on Penguin…. despite giving it the same series code (the mechanism that triggers Point-Of-Sale system to pull subscription preorders) — and that’s WITH the 3d covers! JUSTICE LEAGUE #23: 104k (I’m going to round from here on, look to those links in previous paragraph for “real” numbers) Darkseid: 78k Secret Society: 44k Lobo: 36k Dial E: 26k Those last two are insane, as the 2D VERSION HAS HIGHER ORDERS FILLED — 39k on Lobo, and 34k on Dial E. DIAL H #15 (the August issue) was 11k. |
Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
Just when you thought there weren't enough Batman books, DC announces another ongoing Batman book. It is called Batman: Eternal, and it will launch in January. It will be a weekly series that will last one year next year to celebrate Batman's 75th anniversary.
Also Detective Comics (Vol 2) #27 comes out in January. It will be 104 pages to celebrate Batman's first appearance from Vol 1 #27. I can't wait to see the price tag on that monster... |

I'm going to guess $9.99. Detective Comics #19 was 80 pages and came to $7.99. The more recent Green Lantern #20 was also $7.99 but I'm not sure how many pages it actually turned out to be. |
Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
Scott Snyder confirms Stephanie Brown will be making her first New 52 appearance in Batman Eternal #3!
"We know that they're characters that you guys have been really vocal about," Snyder replied. "Your guys' love of Stephanie Brown have been so inspiring to us. We're really proud to announce that she'll be coming back in [new weekly series 'Batman: Eternal'], in a big way. Dan DiDio is in the audience to yell at us for telling you that." "No one was trying to shelve her," Snyder continued. "It was more about finding the right time to reintroduce her." Snyder said that Tynion came up with the idea to reintroduce her, and suggested it'll be as Spoiler. Tynion said Stephanie Brown will be in issue #3. Now if only they would bring back the "real" Tim Drake and not this "fake" Witness Protection Tim Drake... |
Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
Hopefully, Stephanie Brown fans will not be let down by the "New 52 Stephanie Brown."

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
You know I have to say this. Normally I absolutely despise reading the super duper awesome amazing mega event mini series that Marvel and DC come up with. But I am really enjoying Forever Evil so far.
Also glad to hear that Stephanie Brown is coming back. But I'm shocked she's coming back before Cassandra Cain is. |

Re: DC UNIVERSE Reboots in September, Same Day Digital Linewide
Finally read the first seven issues of Justice league. Is one of Wonder Woman's powers the ability to morph her tiara or something?
