We are a perfect example of the fanboy mentality, aren't we?

Brilliant.

£100? Eeek. Now I'm not sure if I will get a copy either.
Or maybe I will. This is sounding more like Kickstarter where you pay your money and x months later you get your stuff.

Now I don't buy big collections from DC (don't read anything bar 2000ad really) but if you look at other things I have bought complete Far Side or Calvin and Hobbes, those retail for £100 (although I paid less).

I think there's a fairly good indication of what we're getting, unlike Kickstarter. Consider it a print on demand.

Except clearly the print quality will be far superior to 'print on demand'.

I...cannot afford this :(

why cannot I afford this

(well okay I know why...but still)

The Adventurer

For you Brits, remember us Yanks will be paying over $150 for this. And that doesn't include overseas shipping.

So quit your bitch'n

Given the page count and the price, this has got to bound with sewn sections, hasn't it?

I know exactly what I'm getting with Kickstarter, just as I would with Rebellion.
It's print on demand as long as you demand it in several months time. That's the relation to Kickstarter I meant.

I'm sure it'll be a lovely tome.

Zenith all ready exists (it's new packaging you're paying for) and most Kickstarter projects are a promise of created content yet to be. The Veronica Mars film may still end up being shite- disappointing the fans.



Definitely Not Mister Pops

Heh, maybe this is like kickstarter, but instead of paying for potential content, you're paying for potential legal fees.
You may quote me on that.

Damn, Sauchie beat me to that one a few pages back.

Nevermind, as you were.
You may quote me on that.

O Lucky Stevie!

Ditto for Auxtralia.

To put that into perspective, that's about the same as Diamond slugged us for Thrill Power Overload when it came out.

But still cheaper than The Invisibles Omnibus or an Absolute edition.

Or a ticket to a music festival where you're only interested in three bands on the bill like the Big Day Out.
