If you are looking for something to do this weekend, make the trek to Long Beach, California to check out what is going on, and to stop at the Boom! Studios booth (#464) to meet with creators and pick up the limited edition Incredibles #1, which is exclusive to the show. Boom! sent Major Spoilers a run down of the panels and signing schedule that you can see after the jump.
Boom! Studios has announced the second issue of 28 Days Later sold out at the distributor level, immediately after release. This has prompted the company to send the issue back to press in order to get it in readers’ hand by mid-October.
28 DAYS LATER #2 is written by Michael Alan Nelson with interior art by Declan Shalvey and colors by Nick Filardi, with the first print shipping with two covers in a 50/50 split by Tim Bradstreet and Sean Phillips. A third cover by DNA Films was offered as a 1 in 10 incentive.

Those who live by the sword, die by the sword
Boom! Studios was kind enough to give the Major Spoilers Crew a sneak peek at its latest series, Swordsmith Assassin #1 by Andrew Cosby and Michael Alan Nelson. It’s a tale of love, mistakes, and revenge, and it’s a book you probably ought to get on your pull list.
In this issue: The Major Spoilers Crew goes outside their comfort zone and takes a look at The Adventures of Tintin. The poll of the week asks you to decide between your two favorite wisecracking robots, and plenty of reviews (including an exclusive advanced review). It’s all in this issue of the Major Spoilers Podcast!

The turn
What started out as a spooky tale of the last days of Atlantis, turned to a political thriller pitting brother against brother. As issue #3 of Boom! Studios’ Fall of Cthulhu: Nemesis arrives, readers are once again treated to a spooky tale – this time with monsters.
Boom! has been on a roll lately with some really great titles, so when I saw that company founder Andrew Cosby and Hexed writer Michael Alan Nelson are teaming for a Samurai revenge tale, color me excited.
