Thank FOC It's Friday – Critical Role, Rick & Morty, DC YA, Vagrant Queen And Marvel Number Twos

Published Fri, 03 Jan 2020 10:00:43 -0600

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?

Back to usual business for 2020…

The Critical Role HC Vol 1 Chronicles Of Ezandria: The Mighty Nein is $5 more than solicited at $44.99 but that won't put off any Critters.
We also have the hardcover of Fight Club 3, the conclusion that began with a movie.
Mike Mignola, Scott Allie and Ben Stenbeck's Frankenstein Undone launched in January.
DC Comics has their YA titles Anti/Hero and Lost Carnival: Dick Grayson up for FOC.

How did Narcos and Read Only Memories #1 do from IDW? #2 of both are up.
Have you heard of an upcoming TV show called Picard? IDW has #1 of the preamble comic hook series. You will probably need this.
