New Printings For Die, Power Rangers, Empyre, Kylo Ren and More

It's a sign, to some degree, that the grinding of the machine is beginning to return to normal. Comic books sell, sell well, sell out, and a second printing can be part of the planned promotional process as well, sometimes using the same guts of a comic book as created for the first printing, set to one side, and then a new cover with new indicia slapped on the top. Publishers policy will vary of course. Here are the solicitations for a few new printings, including the Empyre #1, #2 and #3 printings previously solicited alongside the first issues and then cancelled. With more for Star Wars  and Klyo Ren – which gets a fourth printing – Amazing Spider-Man, Die, Power Rangers, Strange Academy and third printings for Thor.

• J. Jonah Jameson's new gig has proven to be nothing but trouble for Spidey.

•  But while Spidey is dealing with JJJ and Chance, something is brewing with Kindred and it can't bode well for Peter.
