Thank FOC It's Friday, 4th October 2019 – It's Time For Princeless Season 9

Published Fri, 04 Oct 2019 11:35:19 -0500

Welcome to Thank FOC It's Friday, a semi-weekly mailing list, similar to The Daily LITG, but (mostly) every Friday and planned to coincide and cover the demands of Final Order Cut Off. The date when retailers have a last chance to amend their advance orders for comic books without penalty. A final chance for publishers to promote books while orders can still be added. And a time for credits to be amends, new covers to be revealed and a final push given. This is an attempt to sift through them all and find the most relevant items.

And now it seems that Diamond Comic Distributors has decided to join in. Well, imitation is the greatest form of flattery. You can sign up here or with the form at the bottom.

So what's FOC'ing today?

Cecil Castellucci is rewriting Disney's The Little Mermaid from an Arial perspective – ha ha. With art from Zulema Scotto Lavina, issue 1 is from Dark Horse for FOC.
