The Walking Dead #100 sold out from Diamond Comics Distributors before the comic shipped of its 380,000+ print run And it went rapidly to a second print. But it seems that while Diamond US burnt through all its copies in record time, Diamond UK… didn't. And they still have all the standard covers available, including the 1:200[...]

Who was Lucille? An intelligent zombie? Someone resistant to zombification? Rick's highschool sweetheart? Well those of you who have read The Walking Dead #100 (all 385,000 of you) know very well. Bleeding Cool has mentioned that certain retailers are to receive, one per store, the fifteenth variant edition of The Walking Dead #100 And now we[...]

Blimey. "Kirkman is a proud liar and fraudster who freely admits he has no qualm misprepresenting material facts in order to consummate business transactions" is how the new language in the lawsuit against Robert Kirkman, co-creator of The Walking Dead, on behalf of Tony Moore – the other co-creator of The Walking Dead, reads. Filed Tuesday in[...]

Still, the Walking Dead second prints look rather impressive All that deathly publicity about the Green Lantern Annual seems to be kicking in, and expected reaction to Gambit, on sale today, has put demand on the second issue, Can we expect second prints for both? Captain Marvel also continues to receive high advance orders, which[...]

Only Ozymandias' first issue is in the top ten, the rest crash out with Silk Spectre bearing the brunt of retailer lack of confidence.

While we don't have a visual yet, this appears to be the previously-unidentified fifteenth Walking Dead #100 cover An "appreciation" cover, sent to retailers who ordered Walking Dead #100 and, it seems, signed by someone Possibly Robert Kirkman or Charlie Adlard or both. Their last Retailer Appreciation cover for issue 75 was sent, one copy to[...]

Walking Dead #100 was the number one best selling comic book in the North American direct market in June Did anyone expect otherwise?

It's been a while since we've had a Walking Dead second print, Image Comics have been content for the comics to sell out and go to $30 on eBay But after the announcement of the Walking Dead #100 second print, it looks like the previous issues in the Fear story-line are now also getting the same treatment. And[...]

But even so the Walking Dead #100 second print at the top reflects increased demand for Walking Dead #101, just shy of the promotion-fuelled Avengers Vs X-Men #10 It's also rare to see a Marvel Season One book so high as Dr Strange and Captain Marvel and Revival high order for their issue twos reflect[...]

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ovQiwqHKfLM[/youtube] The Walking Dead Season 3 is fast approaching on AMC, but instead of a trailer why not live the experience with The Walking Dead Escape in San Diego during Comic Con?

A second print is on the way (cover right) for August 11th, but it doesn't look like that will affect the prices… Do we have another Chew on our hands?

More collections make an appearance this week than usual, indicating some expensive summer spending. As for the post-shipping reorder chart, retailers hoover up all the remaining Walking Dead #100 chromium editions, with Walking Dead collections continuing to take up much of the chart, even as Batman books start to take as many spots as they can[...]

Read on. It fascinates me that amidst the triumphalist power fantasies of the properties announced at San Diego Comicon like the next Superman movie, the next batch of Marvel movies, THE WALKING DEAD continues to have its own unique corner of popularity in the general pop culture landscape The 100th issue of the comic couldn't be[...]

The Main point was that The Walking Dead is very predictable[...]

I don't care I'm sticking with the headline.

That the new[...]
