PRE-RELEASE SELL OUT SENDS
MARK WAID’S IRREDEEMABLE #2
BACK TO PRESS!

2ND PRINTING TO BE IN STORES SOON

May 5th, 2009, Los Angeles – Mark Waid’s IRREDEEMABLE #2 has sold out before it reached stores this week! Unprecedented pre-release reorder activity has blown through the initial print run of the flagship title from BOOM! Studios, ensuring a second print!

Fans should keep in mind, while Diamond Comics Distributors is completely sold out, first printings of IRREDEEMABLE #2 will be available at direct market retailers across the country this Wednesday.

In response to this continuing demand, BOOM! Studios and Diamond Comics Distributors are making the second printing of IRREDEEMABLE #2 available for retailers to order immediately, as they did with the first sold out issue of the critically acclaimed series.

IRREDEEMABLE #2 second print (MAR098134) features a sketch variant by John Cassaday and will hit store shelves mid-June.

“The fan reaction to IRREDEEMABLE has been unlike anything that I have ever experienced,” said BOOM! Studios Marketing and Sales Director Chip Mosher. “With IRREDEEMABLE we have an indie superhero book going mainstream.”

With IRREDEEMABLE, Mark Waid dares to ask the question: what if the world’s greatest hero decided to become the world’s greatest villain? IRREDEEMABLE is a “twilight of the superheroes”-style story from the writer of KINGDOM COME and EMPIRE!
