Newsletter ending 12-17-2013
This is the last newsletter of this (gregorian) calendar year, so we on the mod team would like to wish you all a very Happy and felicitous New Year! Also happy holidays if you celebrate anything this time of year. It’s been a joy to be here this year and we look forward to the next.
News
Beware of spoilers!
Tomorrow’s comic releases includes Uncanny Avengers #15, with a beat-up Cap on the cover. The blurps don’t mention him, though, so we’ll see what happens… *ominous silence*
November sales figures gives Marvel a lead in market share, but 4/5 top selling titles are DC. If I were to give a guess at why, it’s the usual: Marvel does well-integrated titles, DC have a few big headlines that always pull their weight. What do you think?
Newsarama has a list of Ten Things we learned from Marvel’s March solicitations - including new #1’s (in a seeming never-ending spree of renumbering), including Iron Patriot, Secret Avengers and Avengers Undercover. In a new attempt to see how many avenger titles it’s possible to print at once, Guardians of the Galaxy has the subtitle Cosmic Avengers. Perhaps more to people’s genuine excitement, there’s a MCU tie-in for Winter Soldier announced as well.
Comicbooknews has a review of Captain America #14 in case yo want to know what happened without actually reading ;)
There’s also a preview of Avengers World #2 (out in January).
Community News
The deadline for turning in your holiday exchange gifts was yesterday - and we have most of you! A few have extensions, so no worries you guys :) Remember we’ll be posting everything anonymously using our handy fest journal, so track those entries if you want to keep track of comments to your stuff. Don’t answer any comments using a logged in journal, though, not till after reveals. You can either answer anonymously or wait till the reveal is up and give a signed response.
