50/50


























Spoke with Dan this morning and the orders for Tales 50 are in. Only about a 10% jump in sales. The books should ship around the middle of September and should be available for purchase at your friendly neighborhood comic shop about a week after that.

I'll buy 2 copies. That should increase sales another, oh, 2-3%.

Ha! Y'know, I was going to disagree with you there, but to be honest... Math was never my best subject in school. But I'd say any increase is better than a decrease. That much I know!

And I agree with tokka. Paul's work is awesome to behold. I'm looking forward to this issue!

Do you guys seriously need help with sales? I don't have much money but I'd buy an extra issue.

Methinks Mirage needs help with awareness.

I still think the reason is that many people that would by the books just don't KNOW they're still coming out! I go to Midtown Comics in Manhattan and they're ALWAYS sold out within a week or so! But this IS NY.

Then Midtown needs to step up and order more copies. Heck, they might even sell a few extra and gain new regular buyers/readers.

-->> ..f8ck this ..

I'll go ahead put a deposit and order a damm bulk-order of at least 20 copies ( or more if i can swing it ) of #50 ..and i'll sell the damm things myself at cover price.


Goddamm !!

I do a podcast, and I have friends who do podcasts. To raise awareness of the book, if i bought so many copies, is there ever a chance that perhaps someone who worked on the book, or Peter, someone could sign it?

Hi nick, I checked with Dan and he said to order your multiple copies via ninjaturtles.com with a note that you'd like to have Pete sign them for you.
But hurry because Mirage does not over print by much.
