Halo: Uprising #1 - Second Printing!

This is an official Marvel press release:

Because you demanded it! Marvel is pleased to announce that the red hot Halo: Uprising #1 (of 4), which sold out at Diamond in less than 24 hours (though copies may be available at the retail level), will return with a new printing! Featuring a sketch variant of the stunning Alex Maleev cover, Halo Uprising #1 (of 4) Second Printing Sketch Variant will arrive in stores to coincide with the release of the second thrilling issue! Featuring the Eisner-Award winning team of writer Brian Bendis and artist Alex Maleev, Halo: Uprising has drawn cheers from fans and critics alike.

“Comics like this are important,” gushed Brendan McGuirk of PopCultureShock.Com. “This issue is an accomplishment. The insanely talented creative team of Bendis and Maleev deliver a thoughtful, beautiful, action-driven story for hardcore Halo fans and n00bs alike.”
