Rapid-Fire Reviews: Giving Thanks Edition!

Or – “Turkey Fact #12: If You Leave A Turkey Out In The Rain, He’ll Drown… Stupid Bird.”

Image United Sells Out

IMAGE UNITED, the six-part crossover featuring Image Founders Erik Larsen, Rob Liefeld, Todd McFarlane, Whilce Portacio, Marc Silvestri and Jim Valentino, made its debut today with a near-immediate sellout at the distribution-level.

“As soon as I held IMAGE UNITED in my hand, I just knew these would go,” said Marc Nathan, owner of Reisterstown, MD’s Cards Comics & Collectibles and Promoter of the Baltimore Comic Con. “You just knew the covers were going to go. It was perfectly smart on Image’s part to put them out this weekend – the best shopping week of the year. Everyone is coming to this weekend to shop, so you know people will be coming back for #2.”
