Thank FOC It's Monday, 1st July 2019 – Apex Predator Vs Archie…

Published Mon, 01 Jul 2019 09:00:41 -0500

Welcome to Thank FOC It's ~~Friday~~ Monday, 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.

You can sign up here or with the form at the bottom.
