Unhealthy Thought is the brand new comics writer from Dinesh Shamdasani, Atom Freeman, Joshua Johns, Karl Bollers, and Anthony Militano. A direct-to-retailer writer, eschewing digital and commerce paperbacks in favour of one-cover one-per-person comedian ebook gross sales from large comedian ebook names. Effectively, Unhealthy Thought Comics has now instructed its 230+ vacation spot comedian ebook shops that solely orders for the primary two titles of the brand new run, Orc Island, a four-issue weekly darkish fantasy heist comedian beginning on the 2nd of November, by Joshua Dysart, Alberto Ponticelli and Matt Hollingsworth, and Escape From Wyoming #1 by Robert Venditti and Jorge Monlongo, a science fiction Western with an unnamed back-up “B-Facet” strip, made by tomorrow will get first printings. Any copies delivered after that, can be Not First Printings. Which is what each subsequent printing can be referred to as, as is the Unhealthy Thought Manner. That’s tomorrow, Thursday, the twenty ninth of September. That is how Unhealthy Thought broke the information to retailers this week. Registered retailers can enhance, lower or in any other case amend their order from this hyperlink.
With two days left earlier than your first Ultimate Order of BAD IDEA TWO: PART ONE , you knew we have been going to do one thing wacky to get everybody speaking, did not you? Effectively, right here it’s!
You took an opportunity on us by inserting your beneficiant pre-orders, and as we strategy the Ultimate Order Deadline for our two launch titles we’re doubling down on you, our companions in crime, and stirring the pot to ensure the 2 launch books are much more wanted in your shops.
BAD IDEA will solely be offering First Printings for orders positioned earlier than the Ultimate Order Deadline for ESCAPE FROM WYOMING #1 and ORC ISLAND #1. Which means solely orders positioned earlier than the tip of the day on Thursday, Sept. twenty ninth together with any orders positioned by way of the pre-order bundle can be fulfilled with First Printings.
All orders subsequent to the Ultimate Order Deadline can be crammed with Not First Printing copies.
What’s a Not First Printing? I am so glad you requested, we’re extremely pleased with this BAD IDEA innovation.
When a BAD IDEA comedian sells out we could return to press and create a brand new printing that’s nearly equivalent to the First Print by way of look and content material included. Many publishers do that and, actually, could return to press a number of instances creating a number of new printings they label second printing, third printing and many others. At BAD IDEA, regardless of what number of instances we return to press for a brand new printing, we label every printing a NOT FIRST PRINTING. We make no adjustments between these new printings, making them indiscernible from one another. Even the UPC and indicia can be unchanged. No extra collectors chasing a replica of the later printing with the smallest print run. In reality, at BAD IDEA the First Printing is, over time, the printing with the smallest print run.
That is proper, BAD IDEA can and can problem new printings which might be indistinguishable from one another. The one exception is the precise First Printing, which can function a transparent colour differentiation on the duvet, a transparent First Printing slug within the UPC and can be labeled First Printing within the indicia.
