DC Comics to Let Retailers Sell Action Comics #1000 From Tuesday Midnight – And All Other DC Titles
DC Comics is making a midnight release out of Action Comics #1000, out on Wednesday, the 18th of April. So that retailers can sell it – and all other DC Comics titles out that day – from midnight on the Tuesday instead.
This is something that Marvel and DC Comics are wont to do on occasion. Some retailers do. Plenty don't.
DC Comics has also released how the Action Comics logo is going to look on all the variant covers – by adding it to the blank sketch cover variant.
Which looks like that. Here's a reminder of how the rest of them look…
ACTION COMICS #1000 1930s Variant cover by Steve Rude (FEB180143)
ACTION COMICS #1000 1940s Variant cover by Michael Cho (FEB180144)
