Huntress signings!
Remember this wed for the launch of Huntress I’ll be signing at @ParadiseComics in Toronto 12-3 and @stadiumcomics in Brampton 4-7. See you there!
Hey everyone! So as you might have heard, Huntress #1 comes out this Wednesday October 5. I thought that I’d hold a contest for my Tumblr followers before the book is released. The prizes are as follows:
FIRST PRIZE: The original art to the Huntress teaser poster I created for Tumblr, a signed mini print of the teaser poster, and a signed copy of Huntress #1.
SECOND PRIZE: A signed mini print of the Huntress teaser poster, a signed copy of Huntress #1, and a Huntress pencil head sketch.
THIRD PRIZE: A signed mini print of the Huntress teaser poster, and a signed copy of Huntress #1.
HOW TO ENTER: Reblog this post! Extra good-luck karma points if you tell your friends about the book if you think they would like it, even if they don’t read comics (hey, it couldn’t hurt!) The winners will be chosen at random out of all the people who reblogged. Likes don’t count for the contest, but count in my heart :)
The contest starts NOW! And will end at 11:59 pm on Wednesday, October 5.
Thanks to all of you in advance for getting the word out about Huntress, and for your continued support from Red Robin to Huntress to whatever comes next.
DC Comics has thanked retailers and fans for their enthusiasm and support during the launch of THE NEW 52, but in a new appeal they’re asking for feedback in a new online survey.
As they made clear from the beginning, their goal was to expand the market by appealing to new/lapsed readers. They believe this has happened, but now they’d like feedback from the fanbase and comic shop retialers about where to go next.
…
The Survey is available now, through Friday, October 7.
Retailers will also be asked to complete an individual “Retailer Survey.”
DC Comics promises to release the results sometime early next year.
Please note - DC will not be retaining any consumer information associated with this survey. Additionally, Nielsen will be visiting a handful of comic shops nationwide for in-person interviews and will be surveying digital consumers from its app/website.
I really can’t wait to see where this goes. Market research is a long time coming for the comics industry.
Agreed, this is a must
Gonna be running a contest regarding Huntress 1 starting this friday so keep your eyes peeled for more info and follow http://marcusto.tumblr.com/ if you haven’t already.
So I feel like I should get into the game, so here’s a little promo piece I whipped up quick to remind everyone Huntress 1 comes out October 5th. Hope you all pick it up and enjoy the art and the story.
I wanted to make a Jay-Z 99 problems joke but that may not be proper. And there is the issue wondering where is the place for what and my friend Andrew Wheeler ( @Wheeler ) wrote a very well written article about the New 52 and the recent outrages surrounding the new issues.
You may have seen our second round of unsolicited advice to DC Comics over at Newsarama. For length and provocative nature, my entry was heavily edited down. Here, then, is the uncut version in its entirety.

Look, DC, we understand, you like to tease. You take us out, wine and dine us,…
