North Wind Gets Order Increase

Monday, February 25th, 2008--by Stephen Schleicher

Northwind_04.jpgBoom! Studios has announced it has seen a 30% increase in orders for issue #4 or North Wind. Why does this warrant an item on Major Spoilers?

“We usually see a dip of 10% or more between issues #3 and #4 of any of our series. That said, we saw nearly a 20% increase in orders between issue #3 and #4 of NORTH WIND.
