Luckily I picked up my copy of After The Cape #1 this week, but many others may not be so lucky. Image Comics let Major Spoilers know the title has sold out at the distributor.
“We overprinted this issue by 30% so we’re over-thrilled to have a sellout on our hands,” says co-writer and Shadowline head honcho Jim Valentino. “Since the news hit about the sellout there’s been a spike in re-orders. We’re watching those numbers, and if retailers demand it, we will go back to press. So get those re-orders in now, folks!”
You heard the man, get your re-orders in (grin).
After the Cape tells the story of Ethan Falls, a man who had everything: family, fame, success, and super powers. The cape wasn’t just a costume, but a proud symbol of what he had become … until a crippling addiction took it all away and propelled him towards a life of crime. The comic features stunning artwork by Marco Rudy whose black and white chiaroscuro style brings the anguish and grittiness of the story to full realization.
