goodness me, i am way too fucking poor for the gravel hardcover. and it would have saved me a ton of footwork to find all the trades. any release info, so i may have a shot to save up for it?
Where'd you find the price for the Gravel HC? I'm going to assume its' a bit out of my range, but would cheerfully admit to being wrong if I could find a price.
@ James - Nope, sorry, but the plan is only the Signed Hardcover, limited to just 2000 copies. No softcover is planned, no plans to keep this in print in this format. The 6 softcovers will be kept in print as they currently are, this hardcover is just a one-time special edition. But it will be oh-so-pretty!
stores that take preorders or reserves can take them for Gravel: Never a Dull Day now.
My local store is a bit shaky when it come to getting avatar related goods. Is it available through comic cavalcade also ? I wouldn't mind ordering this and a gravel hoodie. My Doktor Sleepless Hoodies are getting lonely.
Since Ellis will be a guest at Wizard World Chicago, Avatar will be debuting more projects and products there, including a Doktor Sleepless bust complete with plasma globe that plugs into a USB computer port.
It's too bad, $90 really is a bit too much for me. I was pushing it paying $50 for the Starman HC, although I'll admit the entire series will run about $300 by the time it's done the six-book run. Also, DC needs to do this to Transmetropolitan next. Point is, any time you guys want to put out a slightly more affordable version of the conveniently collected edition, I've got the cash ready to go. I'd much rather own one big book (like Bone, Mister Blank, the forthcoming Scud, etc) than a messy pile of smaller ones.
