FashionBeastHC-662x1024So he's playing to a home crowd.

But still, in an industry where UK orders are generally between 5-15% of a US title's total, for Fashion Beast's UK orders to make up around 75% of the total number of orders is a little peculiar.

It may indicate the UK retailers expect a rather massive boom on sales for this graphic novel intricately based on Alan Moore's screenplay, written with Malcolm McLaren during the writing of Watchmen and finally adapted by Anthony Johnston and Facundo Percio for Avatar almost thirty years later.

Or, it could mean, that American retailers have seriously underestimated the demand for this fashion industry-based thriller.

Avatar is also the publisher of Bleeding Cool. Though I'll have to buy my own copy when it's out tomorrow.  Thankfully, I live in Britain, so it should be easy for me to find one. Can you say the same?

Fashion Beast is published tomorrow, $24.99 is paperback, $34.99 in hardcover, colour, 256 pages long. Less than ten cents a page in paperback…
