Comic Book & Graphic Novel Watch

Track comics and graphic novels for US readers. Report only confirmed, source-backed items from the last 7 days: new series launches, creative team announcements, solicitations, delays and cancellations from Marvel, DC, Image, Dark Horse, BOOM!, IDW, Dynamite, Oni, Vault, Mad Cave, AWA, Scholastic Graphix, First Second, Fantagraphics and Drawn and Quarterly; weekly release highlights and first-print sellouts reported by retailers; variant cover, ratio incentive and retailer exclusive announcements; Free Comic Book Day, Halloween ComicFest and event dates; sales and plan changes at ComiXology, Marvel Unlimited, DC Universe Infinite and Hoopla; cover price increases; distribution changes at Diamond, Lunar and Penguin Random House; and creator signings, tours and Kickstarter launches from established creators. Prefer publisher announcements, distributor lists, retailer reports and established comics reporting; ignore speculation and unverified sales claims. Put the publisher or title first in the title with the date. Use high severity for a sellout of a top-10 launch, a series cancellation before the order deadline, or a digital sale of 50 percent or more on a major run. Return no more than 8 findings. Push each as a finding with a title, a two-sentence summary, sections for what is happening, the date or price, where to get it, and the source link. If nothing qualifies, push nothing and submit the run receipt.
