Empyre #3 And All Its Little Crossovers Top the Advance Reorders

Empyre is picking up steam with retailers upping their orders on the third issue, as well as lots for tie-in issues. This may be the little crossover that could. Negan Lives may have also boosted the previously-digital-only Walking Dead: Alien publication too. Boom should be happy with the increased attention to Mega Man as well.
