ICv2.com: 40,000 Lost Girls By X-Mas

ICv2.com takes a closer look of the first three, reported printings of the massive, slipcased Alan Moore/Melinda Gebbie Lost Girls from Top Shelf Comix. The tally comes to 10,000 published as of right now, 10,000 available in October, and 20,000 in December. Initial orders have been filled, and existing backorders favor the book market. While there are other projects that have enjoyed similarly ambitious printing schedules, the $75 Lost Girls is worth noting because Top Shelf is a traditional independent comics publisher, the kind of entity for whom negotiating the demands of multiple printings can represent a significant challenge -- and if the book had tanked, the publisher might have gone with it, which now looks like a worry from a previous page. The article at ICv2.com sounds a lot smarter than I do.
