<i>Press Release</i>

<blockquote>Diamond is currently reporting that Top Cow and Image Comics’ Wanted #2 has completely sold out of its print run through the distributor. The issue arrived into comic book stores last Wednesday, January 28th, along with Wanted #1 Death Row edition.

After hearing the news, writer Mark Millar proclaims, "It's both heart-warming and frightening to think there's that many sick bastards out there, isn't it?" Artist JG Jones reflects, "We have tapped into the Grand Theft Auto demographic here, something only a crazy Scotsman could pull off. I'm happy to be along for the sick roller coaster ride."

Wanted #1 Death Row edition continues to move through Diamond. "Wanted #1 Death Row edition was the #1 advance re-ordered book through Diamond the week before it hit stands," says Joel Elad, Top Cow Director of Marketing and Sales. "It serves as a great jump-in into the series, especially with all the bonus features."

Retailers can still reorder copies of Wanted #1 Death Row edition through Diamond. Top Cow will make an announcement later this week regarding a 2nd printing of Wanted #2, which would hit stores with the next issue, Wanted #3, on March 10th, 2004.</blockquote>

It's good to hear a great book is doing so well. I just hope that Image keeps reprinting the issues when they sell out so there aren't any fans who get discouraged when they can't find them at their FLCS.

I agree with the above.

I congratulate Millar on his success, and I enjoyed Issue #1.

However, I missed Issue #2, and I tend to wait for trades when this happens (assuming critical buzz is still positive on the series.)

I like Image books and hope they consider reissuing more #2's to keep folks like me aboard and sell more books.

Again, congratulations to Mr. Millar on this great success..
