Told you. They were selling so badly at my store. What else could they do.

Bloodshot: Unleased: Reloaded is now 4 issues instead of the prestige book and is now $4.99 each. Just got more $ to read these stories...

Hey guys, this is super weird but I'm just seeing a completely blank post here. No author and nothing to respond to. Anyone else getting that?

Danielle posted on FB today that they changed BS to a 4 issue monthly from a 2 issue prestige due to artist bandwidth and commitments.

Yeah, I saw that. I didn't mention it because I don't think he'll believe it, heh.

Yeah but if you recall, I said I'd vote for single floppy issues over prestige.

There's a possibility this will be a more permanent change, just to appease me.

They ARE finally caving in to my demand for an anthology book...

it's possible that I have unconscious psychic control of Valiant.

Confirmation bias at work.
What else could they do.

Wait, are you saying it's not specifically because I voted for floppies?
