Broken Frontier

The excitement of the upcoming INFINITE CRISIS continues to build as VILLAINS UNITED #2 has sold out at DC Comics two weeks after arriving in stores on June 1!

Now, the issue is going back to press for a new printing, scheduled to arrive in stores on July 7.  This edition reprints the story by Gail Simone with art by Dale Eaglesham & Wade von Grawbadger, and features a black and white version of the issue> '> s original cover by J.G. Jones.

"Working on VILLAINS UNITED has felt more like entertainment than work, and it's provided a unique and challenging group of characters to parade across the page," says Eaglesham. "Gail has given us some deliciously twisted and strained relationships to sink our teeth into.  I thought it would do well, but nothing prepared me for the overwhelming support it has received from the fans.  I owe Steve Wacker and DC so much for giving me the opportunity to work on this title."

"Reader and retailer response to VILLAINS UNITED and the other CRISIS-related miniseries has been astounding, and shows no signs up letting up," says Bob Wayne, DC's VP - Sales. "Retailers should place orders now for this new printing so they don't miss out.”

VILLAINS UNITED #2 Second Printing (APR058327) is available for order now and is scheduled to arrive in stores on July 7 with a cover price of $2.50 U.S.  Quantities are limited, so retailers are advised to place their orders as soon as possible.
