1:500 face Sneak-Peek

Post by TheeBaldMoose »

OK, I got myself a personal sneak peak on a very talked about book. Dinesh Shamdasani showed me and a few others the face/cover of the new 1:500 XO Manowar book, and asked me to tell people all about it.

I know people were worried about this book being fragile. I can say this book is beautiful/amazing/breath taking, and no where close to being fragile at all. This cover is thick, stupid thick! I dont know just how thick the metal was, but lets just say to "ding a corner" you might need the assistance of some pliers. Now, that's an exageration, but I know there are a good deal of people that were worried about this cover and it's durability. The paper was thick, much thicker than a regular comic! Damage to this book almost has to be deliberate or seriously mishandled.

Some were wondering how Valiant was going to handle the shipment. Dinesh said it will be sent from Valiant straight to the LCS, there won't be a middle man.

He also stated that there will be an exact ordered amount. Whatever was ordered/purchased will be it, period. He won't have 20 or 30 books that he will be sitting on. What was ordered will be, and no more.

I really hope I did Dinesh justice in his explanation. This cover will take your breath away!

Mark me down. Seeing it makes me want to rethink my finances for when they drop on eBay.
Egad, a base tone denotes a bad age!
