Prints Charming – Bitch Planet, Nonplayer, Empty, Rumble, All-New X-Men And Star Wars Latest Printings
Consider this an increasingly regular feature looking at comic books that have gone to second prints or more. Now, it is worth remembering that some publishers plan second prints automatically, whether they are needed or not and will often just run extra first print copies in the initial run, set them aside and put a second print cover on them. It can be a marketing strategy, showing that there is confidence in the performance of the book, get a headline or three and use it to persuade retailers to up their orders of subsequent books. And comics news reporting sites become implicit in that market distortion every time we run them as a story.
But hey ho, away we go. In for a penny…
Bitch Planet #2 goes to a second printing… out on the 1st April.
As is the second print of the yet-to-have-the-first-print-out Bitch Planet #3.
Descender #1 is also sold out and going to second printing and, just in time for the second issue, the long out of print Nonplayer #1 goes to a third printing, both for April 1st.
Empty #1 goes to a second printing, also for 1st April.
But Rumble #3 gets its second printing a week earlier for the 25th March.
And to prove it's not all just Image Comics…
All New X-Men #38, the fourth chapter of the Black Vortex Marvel cosmic crossover storyline gets a second print for the 8th April.
And Star Wars #2 gets a third print for the 15th April…
(UPDATE: The article erroneously listed Nonplayer #2 instad of Nonplayer #1. Fixed now.)
