[PRESS] 'DRAFTED' #4 NOW OUT OF STOCK WITH MORE COPIES EN ROUTE
New issue of Devil's Due Publishing's hot sci-fi epic goes quickly as new shipments head from the printer to Diamond



Chicago, IL. (January 10, 2008) – A flood of orders quickly depleted Diamond's stock of the fourth issue of Mark Powers' ongoing sci-fi saga Drafted this week. Readers and retailers will not have to wait long to see the drought ended, however, because Devil's Due is currently rushing a new shipment from its printer to fulfill new orders.



"I've been in love with this concept from beginning," said DDP President Josh Blaylock. "I'm really glad that readers have latched onto the story with the same level of appreciation."



Powers' story follows Earth's first contact with extraterrestrial emissaries after the destruction of Jerusalem. When humans from all over the planet are removed from their everyday lives and told they have been drafted for a coming war to decide the fate of their world, the drama heats up as their training commences.



"Things are about to get really insane over the next few issues," Blaylock confirmed. Powers' intricately woven epic in the tradition of Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica unfurls with each new issue, crafting a new saga for this generation.



The Diamond order codes for the first six issues of Drafted are as follows:
