Well, we know the creators are Charles Soule and Steve McNiven. But the price? Bleeding Cool has been told that the prices of issues 2 to 4 will join issue 1 in the $4.99 stakes.
As DC Comics sees more and more titles slip from $2.99 to $3.99, and Marvel makes a $2.99 price point the exception rather than the rule, we are also seeing more and more titles slip to $4.99. Sometimes a little fatter, sometimes a thicker cover, usually for mini-series or one-offs… how long before we get a five dollar ongoing series?
