Aquarius: Book Of Mer, Sighted- Thank FOC It's Friday, 16th July 2021

Published Fri, 16 Jul 2021 08:27:13 -0500

Thank FOC It's Friday – Planned to coincide and cover the demands of Final Order Cut Off at Diamond Comic Distributors. And now Lunar Distribution as well. Who knows what Penguin Random House will bring? So here's this week's comics product coming through that may adjusting as demand slips and slides with the emerging economic bubble. Or somesuch.

Traditionally FOC is the date when retailers have a last chance to amend their advance orders for comic books without penalty. A final opportunity for publishers to promote books while orders can still be added. 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.

What's FOC-ing this weekend?

How did Masters Of The Universe: Revelation #1 do? #2 is up for FOC.
Unbelieveable Unteens is the latest Black Hammer series to launch, by Jeff Lemire and Tyler Crook.
