Form & Void: Back In Print!

Hi, Everybody!

It's called RECYCLING Mags!!!

Form & Void is coming back to print!

The NEWLY Remastered "Hotness" is getting Kickstarted by The Waverly Press, RIGHT NOW!

If you click the "RIGHT NOW!", you'll be taken to the campaign, where you'll discover that there are a variety of options:
  • The Collector Softcover ($85) 
  • The Premium Softcover ($125)
  • The Deluxe Hardcover ($195)
  • Collector Bundle #1 ($265)
  • Collector Bundle #2 ($370)
"Um...That's GREAT Matt, but what the @#%& does it mean?!?"

Okay.
  • The Collector Softcover ($85) 
I'd say click for bigger, but this is all you'll get...
Remastered Art, New cover, individually numbered. Other than looking better, and the cover, same as that vintage copy you have on your nightstand...(or is that just me?)
"Old and Busted" on the left, "New Hotness" on the right... (I might buy two...)
  • The Premium Softcover ($125)
Same as above, but signed and numbered by Dave and Gerhard. (This is what I'm pledging for.)
  • The Deluxe Hardcover ($195)
Ditto to above.
Ya got a Regency Edition of High Society? Same thing. (Basically.) Signed and numbered by Dave and Gerhard.
  • Collector Bundle #1 ($265)
The previous two options. Together!
Look, it was a REALLY small picture that I downloaded...
  • Collector Bundle #2 ($370)
The first three options (softcover, Premium softcover, Deluxe Hardcover)

PLUS, all these extras:
Starting on the top left: Sticker, Button, drink coaster, CERAMIC coaster, 
Bottom: Five trading cards.
"Ya know what? @#%& them guys!"
Well, if you're a "Bill Ritter" (nothing personal Bill, you're just the most vocal person with issues with the Waverly Press I can think of.), you can order the Direct Market version from Diamond. It's gonna be in the May catalog for items shipping in July. Same old cover as always:
Won't be signed by Dave and Gerhard. And won't be numbered.

$70.

"Matt, I got some @#%&ING questions..."
Yeah? Well I got some @#%&ING answers...
"EIGHTY-FIVE @#%&ING DOLLARS?!? For the CHEAPEST VERSION!?!"
The cost of paper has gone up 4 times over the last year. 
And, these are getting printed on better paper, so these are gonna be some of the thickest Cerebus trades ever.
And if you've bought anything from the Waverly Press, you know they don't cut corners.
AND, this one has a lot of slices to the pie: Dave. Gerhard. Sean. The printers. Waverly. The guys making the Extra stuff. 

Now the BAD news:
Since the Waverly Press versions are getting printed at the same time as the Direct Market edition, the books aren't gonna be shipping until October. (The DM version from A/V will be in stores in July, I believe.)
And Shipping is gonna be a bitch. (If the books aren't packed right, then they get damaged and then they have to be replaced.)

So the difference is:
A-V Direct Market Edition: The same vintage cover and book the fans already know and love, but on nicer paper.
Waverly SC Edition: Extra pages, new wraparound cover, foil block details. Every copy is individually numbered and comes either unsigned or signed by Dave and Gerhard.
Waverly Hardcover Edition: That ^ but HARD(!)!

Speaking of Kickstarters:
Last chance details
If you know where this is from you ARE a fan!
Hey, everybody. We're at the point where there are less than 10 folks left to fill out their survey. At 11:59pm tomorrow (Dave Standard Time aka Eastern Time) we will begin (who are we foolin', it'll be Thursday morning) compiling all data for fulfillment. This means that the three people that were dropped for non-payment will have until then to let us know if they would like a copy or copies of POT8 No. 1. Also at that time will be the cutoff for receiving any outstanding surveys. Past that time you will receive a signed and numbered copy/copies with no other personalization if you did not fill out your survey.

We can also announce now that Dave is currently at work on POT8 No. 2 to be released soon.

Thanks to everyone that participated. We'll let you know our progress going forward and we hope to announce that all orders have shipped sooner than anyone expects.
Get yer frickin' surveys in. Come on! Don't be THAT guy...
