I saw the preview for this a few months ago and it immediately piqued my interest.
I saw #1 was coming out this week and my first thought was, "Oh gosh, I so most-definitely want that."
It's now Friday, all the shops are closed, and I still want this comic, I still have not read this comic, and after three days of looking, I still do not have a copy of this comic. Why is that, you may inquire? Because it's completely sold out at every shop in a 15-20 mile radius of me, that's why (barring a couple of stray copies featuring the C cover, which is far and away my least favorite of the 4+ covers, so fuck that biz).
So, clearly this debut is killing it in one way or another? With fire? I'm not even looking for some fancy variant or anything that might make the search for a copy understandably tough; other than the presumably super-rare Brimper/Lying Cat variant, which I not-for-one second assumed would ever be available to me, all i'm asking for is the standard A cover, with the crazy-cool looking spirit-eyed cats and the chick with the Buffy pose and spiky club in the background, yet even that is long gone from all the local shops. Shame on me for not going in on Tuesday night and having my usual shop stick one in my saver, but still . . did they grossly under-order, did I underestimate the demand that would come from my fellow patrons, or is the reality of it some particularly wicked mixture of the two?
Bottom line, does someone want to tell me how it is!? Good, yeah? Fun? Anyone else having a tough time finding it? Let us commence with the discussing.
