Star Wars: Vader Down Sells Over 450,000 – From MCM London Comic Con
At the Diamond Retailer Day at MCM London Expo this weekend, Marvel's Senior VP David Gabriel announced that Star Wars: Vader Down, the new Star Wars crossover between the two lead titles Star Wars and Darth Vader, already had over 450,000 units ordered. He described it as "so hot it burns your skin off and leaves you for dead at the bottom of a volcano".
This includes a number of chains like Gamestop, Hot Topic, Scholastic and probably a subscription box or two in there are well.
But Gabriel also let retailers know there would be a Diamond UK exclusive too, with art by Pasqual Ferry.
