just wanted to say thanks to all of you who are trying powers for the first time and to the retailers who gave the book a second look.

i never discuss actual numbers because its ugly, but we hit a number best for powers and we did really, really well for a rated r creator owned book, but not crazy numbers where people are going to start rethinking the world of comic distribution as some were speculating.

but issue 2 also did really really well, with a less than ten percent dip, which means we have new readers, not new speculaltors, which is what we wanted.

so again, thanks for getting into powers and for telling marvel this is the kind of business they should be in.

you have ten days to order powers 1, so if you didn't you should. if you like daredevil, alias, or the pulse, you will love powers, promise.

He gets killed in a distrubing manner at the end of issue 3 as an homage to the Warren Ellis issue Laughing
