|
|
The first wave of advance orders from retailers for the new Kabuki series are in...
And the orders are much better than expected!
This is because you as readers have asked your retailers to order the new Kabuki series ahead of time.
Retallers have told me that the word of mouth demand for the new Kabuki series, and the exceptional demand for all of the Kabuki trades are the reason they keep Kabuki in stock and are ordering the new series.
I want to give all of you a big THANK YOU for taking the initiative to try Kabuki. The new series, and the trades. And a big THANK YOU for personally taking the initiative to ask your comic store to order it for you.
Your personal request for the Kabuki is what keeps the book alive and available in stores.
So thank you to my long time Kabuki readers, and thank you to the brand new readers who are picking up the collections or are just beginning with this new Kabuki series. Please let me know what you think of the trades and the new series as you read it
Kindest regards,
David Mack |

Thats great David, glad to hear it! But hey, its because Kabuki is such an original, and well done book. The more people who become aware of it are bound to enjoy it, and then stay on board. Congrats DM.

Kick ASS! I'll never stop recommending Kabuki, whether it be via my site, telling friends to pick it up...or even giving away a copy here and there when I can.
The work speaks for itself once you let someone see it.
I'll love it one day if we see Kabuki in the Diamond Top 20. It'd only mean that comic readers are getting smarter. _________________ SimplyJD Online...convention coverage, interviews & unique commentary! |

That's GREAT news! You deserve the sales David! Kabuki is more than awesome. I hope more people pick up on it once Alchemy is out.

I'm glad to help. And you can say that you're the reason I'm preordering anything at all, since I never did it before this. _________________ You've done grand, laddie! Now ya know what ya have ta do! Burn the house down! Burn 'em all! |

YAY FOR DAVID! (does happy dance!)
Out of curiousity (cuz it does kill cats...and i think fraggles) do you think that the move to Icon helped at all? I know alot of my friends started talking about it after seeing it in previews. (of course at that point, i already ordered copies for them, so there was no way whatsoever that they are not jumping on to Kabuki....)
: ): ) : )

Well thank you. I did preorder it and all. As long as you keep putting out the great work I will keep buying it.
I think it was some of the comments made on this board that made me specifically begin preordering/ordering instead of telling the retailer to pull.
I don't want to see more of the cancelled because of poor orders thing anymore.
And as a thank you present maybe you can sign them in Toronto in August. |

Thanks,
Preordering from your retailer really does make all the difference between the book making it to the store and getting a chance for readers to find it, or not getting that chance.
I really appreciate it. |
