Blood & Fire #1

MAR241882

(W) Aaron Wroblewski (A/CA) Ezequiel Rubio Lancho

In 16th Century Japan, after centuries of rule, the central government has lost control, plunging the country into a bloody civil war. As warlords seek power and territory, a lone samurai takes a stand against the chaos. But the price of peace will be blood and fire!

Now, here's an alert for you - Blood & Fire #1 is almost sold out before it even hits shelves.  Let me explain.  We print our books in South Korea to keep the cover price down,  However, that means we have to send the books for printing 4 months before they are due at Diamond.  That also means we have to guess how many to print before the book has even been listed in the Diamond catalog.  If you print too many, you waste a lot of money and sit on hundreds of unsold copies.  If you print too few, you can't fulfill retailer orders.  While we printed enough copies to fulfill the better-than-expected Diamond orders for Blood & Fire #1, it means we have very few extra copies for conventions, the web store, or Diamond re-orders.

If you want to ensure you get a copy, I recommend you order one at your retailer now using code MAR241882.  Best of luck!

He instills confidence knowing that his stories will be thoughtful and engaging. You add a talented artist like Dustin Nguyen on another collaborative effort and well, 'Little Monsters,' is a must-buy.
