Marvel: Sell-Outs

Yes, it's time once again for another of our infamous Rundowns. This go-round, The Rundown is devoted entirely to Marvel Comics that have sold-out at the distribution level and are going back for new printings. Remember that selling-out at the distribution level simply means there are no more copies available to retailers; there may still be issues available at your local retail outlet.

Remember: Light Rundown and GET AWAY!
  • X-Force #2 is going back to press. The next few issues feature the return of a classic X-villain. Editor, John Barber, said issue #3 is "incredible" and called issue #4 "one of the most powerful and intense comics I've ever read." Of course, he's the editor; this would only be news if he'd said something like, "Issue #3 is okay and issue #4 really blows, but issue #5 will knock your socks off!" And he wouldn't say that.
  • Cable #1 is getting a second-printing.
  • Ultimates #3 is going back to press. Ultimates #1 and 2 have seen second runs and the first issue sold-out both times!
  • Kick-Ass #1 gets a second-printing.
  • Hulk #2 got a second run, as well (while we're here). I don't know why, because Hulk #1 was a total borefest.
Well, I guess there weren't quite as many as I thought, but that's still a pretty good run and no sense releasing them all one at a time.

WELL, WHAT DID THE DIRECTIONS SAY? Dammit. Alright, you look for your finger while I get your sister in the car...
