Humphries and Rose’s SACRIFICE Returns In 2013
We’ve been grinding hard on SACRIFICE and we’re pleased to announce that we’ll be shipping the final three issues monthly!
SACRIFICE issue 4 hits stores and online, January 16. Pick it up with MARVEL NOW! UNCANNY X-FORCE issue 1 by myself and Ron Garney!
So we blew up our schedule on HAWKGUY just a little bit to work a special issue into our schedule — #7, January, is now a book told in halves, each about Hurricane Sandy and our intrepid Hawkguys (or Lady Hawkguy if you prefer) dealing with Things. Clint finds himself helping an evacuation in Far Rockaway; Kate is in a fancy dress stuck in a hotel on the Atlantic City boardwalk.

STEVE LIEBER handles the Clint half; JESSE HAMM, the Kate half. They are geniuses and are perfect partners for this endeavor.

Here’s the thing: at Marvel I am paid performance-based incentives. The better my books sell, the nicer the check is, when the nice check comes.
I’m donating all of my incentives from the sales of HAWKGUY #7 to the Red Cross.
The better the sales on the issue, the bigger the check I write.
Team HAWKGUY? You guys have been amazing — vocal and visible and amazing in your support of our book. I hate to ask you for anything more, but maybe this one, maybe issue 7, tell your comic shop to hold you *two* copies? Give one to somebody not reading the book maybe, I dunno. It’ll only help HAWKEYE and you’ll be making the check bigger.
And if you hate HAWKGUY, or the character, or me or my books? Tell your shop to hold you TEN for all I care. Make the check hurt to write!

The order code is NOV120725. Give that to your comic shop, tell them how many you want, and they’ll take care of you.
There will be more press this week. I’m gonna be as loud and as visible as I can with this. Thanks for your patience with me in advance.

And thanks again, Team Hawkguy. With your hawkblocking and pizza-dogging, tumblring and twittering, creepy shipping (THAT’S RIGHT I SEE YOU), screencapping, and incredible ‘shopping — you guys let us know, right away, we were onto something, that you heard us and saw us and dug what we were doing. You’re amazing, all of you.

Now, you might remember that this past week we’ve seen a couple teasers for a second wave of Marvel NOW! titles (namely Lightning, Survive, Wanted and Killers) and today Newsarama has our first official confirmation that Daniel Way and Steve Dillon will be relaunching “Thunderbolts” this December with a brand spanking new team consisting of Red Hulk, Deadpool, Punisher, Venom and Elektra.

Comics Should Be Cheap! (9/12/2012)
Buying comics can be an expensive hobby. A lot of fans simply can’t afford everything they’re interested in, due to rising prices and the over-saturation of the market with superhero titles.
That’s why we’re here. Every week, the Multiversity staff is asked “What would you buy this week if you couldn’t go over $20?” and shares their reasons why, in order to help others who might have similar tastes make their own decisions in buying comics on a budget. Be sure to leave your own picks in the comments!
Looks like we’re getting a two for one today as ComicsAlliance has yet another Marvel NOW! teaser showing Sam Humphries and Ron Garney and the word “Killers.
What could this one be? Well, that could be anyone’s guess, really. Who in the Marvel Universe are most known as killers? We’ll be sure to keep a close eye on this one.

Another day, another teaser for the Marvel NOW! titles being announced for December. This time, it’s CBR with the exclusive that Dennis Hopeless and Salvador Larroca are “Wanted”.

Daniel Way has been the lead writer on Deadpool since 2008 and with his run set to finish up in October, the question has been what he’ll turn his pen to now and it seems like we have an answer. Newsarama has revealed another Marvel NOW! teaser with Daniel Way and Steve Dillon and the word ‘LIGHTNING’. Could Way be taking over “Thunderbolts” now that Jeff Parker has transitioned the title to “Dark Avengers”?
Get GetGlue (Week of 8/29/2012)
We don’t know about the rest of you, but we’re a bit addicted to GetGlue. If you haven’t checked it out before, it’s a silly thing, really: you check in to what you are watching, playing or reading and are rewarded a sticker for it. When you get a certain number of stickers, once a month you can have your stickers sent to you to do whatever it is you do with stickers – put them on things, eat them, etc.
As GetGlue has been getting more and more popular, teaming up with more companies for exclusive stickers, Marvel Comics have started releasing weekly stickers for their books. As comic fans, we figure you might want them, and you might want a handy round-up with links of what they are and where to get them.
Look no further! We will be providing you said round-up and links for all your sticker needs.
