Thank #FOC It's Saturday, 14th March 2020 – Every Generation Throws A Hero At The Pop Charts

Welcome to Thank FOC It's Friday Saturday, a semi-weekly mailing list, similar to The Daily LITG, but (mostly) every Friday and planned to coincide and cover the demands of Final Order Cut Off. The date when retailers have a last chance to amend their advance orders for comic books without penalty. A final chance for publishers to promote books while orders can still be added. And a time for credits to be amends, new covers to be revealed and a final push given. This is an attempt to sift through them all and find the most relevant items.

And now it seems that Diamond Comic Distributors has decided to join in. Well, imitation is the greatest form of flattery. You can sign up here or with the form at the bottom.

So what's FOC'ing today?

  • Tyler Boss' Dead Dogs Bite #1 launches from Dark Horse in April.
  • While DC's Catwoman 80th Anniversary is up for FOC. More of a scratch than a bite.
  • Doom Patrol #7 is up for FOC? Will it actually come out now?
  • Tim Seeley is the new EIC of Heavy Metal Magazine. He also writes The Crow: Lethe from IDW. #2 is up for FOC, and retailers who meet or exceed 85% of orders for Crow Lethe #1, orders for  #2 will be returnable for a small fee.
