By December we should know how well the new Valiant will do. Main concern for me is staying of schedule.

Hopefully, they were taking notes when Dark Horse dropped the ball with the GK relaunch.

I hope they hire writers and artists that have proven in the past that they can keep to deadlines.

for me it is good, compelling stories.

I want both. And great art. And free stuff.

stories and timeliness for me

[MarrowMan]

Once the ball starts rolling, and Harbinger, Shadowman, Bloodshot(or Rai) and XO are in full swing, if the stories are as great as they used to be, I'll most likely drop 90% of my marvel and dc purchases, because frankly their stories mostly suck balls.

Seriously, nobody has a scan/photo they can post yet? I don't have an LCS, so don't get Previews but would love to see the listing.

Will not be able to get to shop tomorrow as daughters ballet concert.

I WOULD be posting scans from Previews, but my stupid car broke down on the way to the comic shop... so no pictures from me.

Well the comics I'm so far behind on that it doesn't much matter... guess I'm catching up over the weekend with no car until at least Monday.

You have no idea how much research we've done on that! One day I'll show you my crazy giant spreadsheet charting that entire relaunch - every announcement, advertisement, convention appearance, release date, solicitation date, interview, price point, incentive etc. etc. etc. The entire plan charted to figure out exactly what worked, what didn't and why.

That sounds amazing, I hope to see that spreadsheet one day.

SA-Weet!

What Dark Horse did to/with those characters has left a really bad taste in my mouth towards them. Glad there is a plan in place NOT to repeat it.

Good to hear that. I'm glad you all deduced putting out a FCBD issue and then nothing for a while after was a big opportunity miss on their part.


When might you all drop the news on the ideas to bring people back into actual stores? I just want to make sure I don't miss it and it's getting a bit tough to follow all the news / insight all over the place.

It would be awesome if there was one sticky thread here where only Dino, Greg and DJ could post in it all the announcements / news / links / stories, etc. in one spot. Maybe there is one and I've missed it.

Isn't that what the official announcements section was supposed to be?

Good point, but the last post there was in Aug and most of it is about the old HCs and stuff.
