Robert Kirkman who has had a history of doing such surprises, with Die!Die!Die!, Here's Negan and the conclusion of The Walking Dead. Image Comics denied everything, as did Boom and others. But Robert Kirkman never got back to me. Robert Kirkman is claiming Solid Blood #17 is a comic book from another dimension, featuring characters that he created and discussed with Ryan Ottley, but was never published, as Ottley has an exclusive contract with Marvel Comics. And they have suddenly found tens of thousands of copies in the warehouse and are sending them out to retailers. But whatever it is, whatever it means, whatever it could be, it is a new comic book by Robert Kirkman and Ryan Ottley will be in stores on Wednesday at numbers that may be based on twice a retailer's order for the final issue of Invincible. Crossover #3 by Donny Cates and Geoff Shaw Has Almost 100,000 Orders Via https://archive.vn/XOqAU Image is closing out 2020 on a high note by sending the industry all atwitter over Crossover #3—and a little bird has told me that this third issue in the hottest series of the year, nay decade, has closed out its orders at just shy of 100K—nearly doubling the order number that came in for issue #2. That's the issue 2 that's out today. This is better than an early sellout folks, this means that not only is Donny Cates' and Geoff Shaw's new superhero series the talk of the town — but its money in the bank in retailers' eyes. Some folk may wonder if this issue merely caught some lift from the Cover B and incentive raw covers featuring Todd McFarlane artwork. Could Crossover have caught the Spawnmania wave which sent Spawn sales flying through the roof even during a pandemic? We don't think so — Donny Cates shared, and our mole with Image confirmed, that there's something afoot in issue #3. Godzilla to Relaunch Comic Series at Last Via comicbook.com The king of the monsters is set to return next year with the next installment of Legendary Pictures' "Monster-Verse" in Godzilla Vs Kong, but it seems as if the most famous kaiju in the world will once again be returning to the world of comic books thanks in part to a partnership between the comic publisher of IDW and Toho Studios. IDW is teaming with Toho, the original company that created the lizard king, to release a brand new set of comic series as well as numerous other pieces of merchandise that are sure to please Godzilla fans around the world! IDW is certainly no stranger to the world of Godzilla however and has created some legendary comic book runs for the world of the king of the kaiju and his fellow giant monsters. With the likes of Godzilla In Hell, Godzilla: Cataclysm, and Godzilla: Complete Rulers of Earth being only a few of the series that IDW has printed as a comic book publisher, the upcoming partnership between them and Toho is looking to expand on the world of the kaiju just as Godzilla himself is set to return to the West next year as he battles against the current ruler of Skull Island! #comicbooks #imagecomics #comicbooknews Contact Thinking Critical: Twitter: / wes_from_tc Email [email protected]
