Okay, who besides me is reading The Twelve? Every issue, including issue 0 have sold out. So someone is reading it. It's some really good stuff. Yes we've had the whole, hero-frozen-and-revived-in-modern-day stuff already here we have twelve friggin' people. Each one has their own story and past to deal with. It's almost like a superhero soap opera, only without the strange staring-off-into-space-while-dramatic-music-plays-until-the-fadeout-to-commericals thing. Check out the new cover for issue #2 here. That's some emotional stuff. Poor guy. What a bummer to find out your whole world went on without you. Worse yet, that your wife kept holding onto the hope that you'd return until her dying day. So if you haven't, pick up this comic. The meeting with the modern day heroes is coming up.
Marvel’s new hit series is four-for-four, as The Twelve #2 (of 12) has sold out at Diamond (though copies may be available at the retail level) and will return with a new printing to meet the overwhelming demand! The Twelve #2 (of 12) Second Printing Variant features the powerful interior art of Chris Weston on the cover, as the collaboration between red-hot scribe JMS (Thor) and Weston continues.
