Man, talk about a likely low print run.

[kevinbastos]

The LOW print run will be the Occultist TPB. yikes!

[depluto]

I liked the story. Would have been interesting to see it play out.

Me too.

Samson or Occultist?

My gut was that Samson started fair, then quickly became sophomoric.

Occultist was decent through.

I just have too much completion in me.

I may be continuing to buy Dark Horse Presents Books.

I liked Samson. The Occultist was pretty good too, but I only read the first one-shot.

turok tpb was below 1000

[Crow331]

Sheesh! Why even bother with a print run that low??

[StarBrand]

turok tpb was below 1000

Do you have an exact number? Thanks.

[chisumwomack]

Just got Samson. I liked it.

[geocarr]

I ordered the Occultist TPB from DCBS.

[kevinbastos]

I think the Occultist TPB may be the LOWEST print run of the entire Dark Key related mess. For the insane completist (like me) it's the Holiest Grail!

What is the Occultist? Did this character pop up in Dark Horse's Gold Key relaunch?

It's a character created by Mike Richardson. It was officially announced the character was part of the Dark Horse Gold Key line. Whether that will ever play out remains to be seen.

Dark Key is Dead - Long Live Dark Key

In theory, it is continuing in the Dark Horse Presents Line, starting with issue 11.

Issue 13 even has an Occultist Variant cover



In addition, the initial issue - which was a 'one-shot' had a cover in the style of the Dark Key line.

Dr. Solar 8 vs. The Occultist one-shot



No other cover, including the one-shot variant, has displayed any Dark Key connection.

Occultist one-shot, Occultist 1 of 3 and variant, 2, and 3.

Do you know if issue 11 is the first appearance of the Occultist in that title?

[kevinbastos]

Issue 10 has nothing yet.

Occultist never was and never will be a Gold Key title - adding it to Dark Key is moot. It was at one point then the line cancelled/hiatus and Occultist (A Dark Horse Original) is the only thing to continue with no connections ever to Gold/Dark Key characters

It can be said the Dark-Key line is dead, but we don't know that with certainty. I recall a lot of folks stating with seeming certainty the new Valiant wouldn't ever do a serious relaunch. Some of us weren't among those folks, of course. That said, I felt a lot better about VEI launching a new line than this one coming back, but this line can't be completely counted out. In theory, it does live on in the Occultist.

Dark Horse needs to be put down before they butcher the Gold Key titles anymore -- at least they got the Reprint Volumes right - then again how hard is it to *SQUEE* up material you never created.

I really enjoyed the Doctor Solar Archives. I still need number 4, though.

While I agree, I still can't stop buying the infernal thing.

I am a moron. And am in until the bitter end. I just have a feeling that a year from now, everything is gonna be back and I will have some 'Magnus Predator TPB' moment.

Although it will probably be more like the Secret Weapons 5 moment.
