By The Numbers

New Marvel Printings Announced

After a few months where Marvel only went back to print on Lando #1, Marvel has decided to reprint 12 of their Star Wars issues in November.

Marvel must have decided these reprints will not impact the orders for the trade paperbacks that are forthcoming for the Star Wars and Darth Vader titles.  With The Force Awakens release only one month after these reprints are scheduled to ship, it does not hurt to have more Star Wars product available for potential readers.

I wonder what color they are going to use for the 7th printing of Star Wars #1.  They used green for the cover of the 6th printing which would be apropos for the 7th printing considering Marvel will most likely ship over 100,000 copies of reprints in the month of November.  Gold would be appropriate too.
