Brian Bendis, Scott Snyder, Geoff Johns Write Comics About Comic Shops

Meanwhile... A Comic Shop Anthology is a new comic created by a shop with stories about other shops. How very meta of it.


Meanwhile… A Comic Shop Anthology is a new comic book created by a comic book shop with stories about comic book shops, or the comic book reading experience, for other comic book shops to stock as a perennial item. An 80-page perfect bound comic book, with a 12 pt. gloss cover and 70 lb. uncoated interior pages, with stories and art in full colour, single colour, and black & white. Numbers that mean a lot to comic book stores, so we are leading with them.

And to clarify, this is nothing to do with the Meanwhile… anthology series published by Soaring Penguin Press that serialises Strangehaven, amongst other comic books.

And edited by Higgins and Sharp.

Digital copies will be sent out to all backers at the same time."
