Prints Charming – Nameless, Star Wars And Thor

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…

STK672219

Star Wars #2 by Jason Aaron and John Cassday has sold out and gone to the second print (above)…

STK672234

Nameless #1 by Grant Morrison and Chris Burnham has also done the same…

STK671478And Thor #2 by Jason Aaron and Dauterman goes to a third printing…

No sign of that Star Wars #1 fourth printing yet though. Only a matter of time.
