I'm not sure if this image has been posted here yet...

Found it today at Amazon.com
Later,

I'm really hoping there's a softcover. But cool, nonetheless.

I'm hoping for a softcover too, but dang that looks good. Magnus in 1 week!

Does Dark Horse just have the reprint rights? Or can they do other stories with Solar and Magnus?

I think just reprint rights, because iBooks is publishing new Magnus stories this Spring.

This was released this week. Mine's in the post. Anyone picked up a copy? Any thoughts?

wha wha wha?

The dark horse website says the Solar HC isnt for another month, and the second magnus HC is in March. Am I wrong?

Diamond Distributors' release schedule (which I usually read on the CGC boards) state that the Solar Hardcover came out this week. I didn't make it to the comic shop this week because of all of the snow out here, though so I can't say I've seen it in person. Does anyone here actually pay the full cover price for these books? You can usually find listings on eBay for the first Magnus book at close to 1/2 cover.

Saw it in the store this week, although it was shrinkwrapped. It's also on Diamond's list

Mile High just listed this for the bargain price of $32.95. If you order more than $40 worth of product, you get free shipping.

Mile High's pic of the cover is different than the one that Dan posted. Look here:

Are there two covers? Is one a rare variant?

I have my Magnus HC from Dark Horse already. DF had a deal a few months ago where if you bought the pair, you got them for like $55. They shipped the Magnus book about a month ago, and I guess the Solar will be coming soon.

I am seeing more than one cover on the Solar, though. Are there multiple DJs?

The original solicitation images of the Magnus hardcover were a green,
but the actual book is only yellow, I believe.

Is it possible that the solicitation for Solar is purple,
but the actual book is only red?

Hey guys! Finally back on the internet after a 3-month haitus! Missed everyone!
Just wanted to chime in on the Solar Hardcover. I got mine from my LCS, and the cover was orange with a completly different picture in the circle. I'll scan it tomorrow and post it....unless anyone has already seen it.

I picked mine up today. Same picture on the front. Cover is orange, but it looks kind of red depending on the lighting in the room. (In other words, in a dimly lit room, it looks red.)

That is, its the same picture from the vaultkeeper's web link.

What issues did they reprint?

These are starting to pop up on eBay for around $30.00.
