Broken Frontier

The Spectre returns to the DCU in DAY OF VENGEANCE #1, which sold out at DC Comics over a week before arriving in stores on April 27.

Now, DC sends this issue back to press for a new printing featuring a powerful new color cover by comics legend Walter Simonson!

DAY OF VENGEANCE #1 Second Printing (FEB058476) reprints the story by Bill Willingham with art by Justiniano & Walden Wong.  This new printing is scheduled to arrive in stores on May 25.

“This is wonderful news, but also a bit worrisome,” says Willingham.  “I've just started writing the sixth and final issue of DAY OF VENGEANCE, and now the pressure's doubly on to make this end with a bang.  I don't like to brag, but DAY OF VENGEANCE is a series that should come with safety belts — it's going to be a wild ride.  The entire magic corner of the DC Universe is going to be turned over, crunched, munched and whacked upside the head a few times.”

“Like the other three miniseries spinning out of COUNTDOWN TO INFINITE CRISIS, sales momentum for DAY OF VENGEANCE is very strong,” says Bob Wayne, DC’s VP — Sales.  “Retailers should place their orders for this new printing as soon as possible, as well as increasing orders on the coming issues.”

DAY OF VENGEANCE #1 Second Printing (FEB058476) is available for order now and is scheduled to arrive in stores on May 25 with a cover price of $2.50 U.S.  To ensure delivery on that date retailers must place orders by Sunday, May 15; please note that quantities will be limited and may sell out before May 15.  DC recommends that retailers place orders as soon as possible to avoid missing out.

Retailers may order the issue by contacting their Diamond Customer Service Representative or DC Sales Representative, or by email at reorders@diamondcomics.com.

• DAY OF VENGEANCE #2 (MAR050397) is available for advance reorder and is scheduled to arrive in stores on May 18.
