I was chatting with a few comic creators about the upcoming new comic book series White Trees #1 by Chip Zdarsky and Kris Anka at the weekend. Once described seeing a preview of the finished art as being 'cocks akimbo'.

Well, Image Comics has decided that retailers may need a … slight warning. And have issued a statement to say that the first issue of White Trees 'contains some adult content, rather than solely content suitable for mature readers. Retailers are urged to bear this in mind when displaying and selling the book to their customers.'

None of that in the preview artwork of course.
