Thank FOC It's Sunday – Star Makes Her First Cover Appearance

Published Sun, 28 Jul 2019 13:30:38 -0500

We just get later and later. Welcome to Thank FOC It's ~~Friday~~ Sunday, a weekly-ish 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. The last 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. So what's FOC'ing happening this weekend?
