DC Discounts Ink and Zoom Launch Titles Mera and Super Sons

Published Thu, 29 Nov 2018 08:00:23 -0600

Launch titles for DC Comics' young adult graphic novel imprint Ink and kids graphic novel imprint Zoom will be getting a sales bump from a new promotion from the publisher.

If comic book retailers order Mera: Tidebreaker by Danielle Paige and Stephen Byrne and Super Suns Book One: The Polarshield Project by Ridley Pearson and Ila Gonzalez at the same numbers as they did of the kids-aimed book DC Super Hero Girls Vol 1: Finals Crisis from 2016, they will get an additional small discount.

And if they order twice as many, they will get double that discount.

DC Comics has been pushing these titles to bookstores and libraries, but they definitely think there's room to bump the numbers in the comic book stores too.
