Don't say i didn't warn you to get your orders in early... And hey! that event at the ICA looks great. Wish I could go, but sadly school commitments render it impossible.

LOST GIRLS SELLS OUT IN ONE DAY
***************************************
Lost Girls hit stores on Wed Aug 31st, and the entire 10,000 copy 1st
printing sold out on that day. -- It even hit the "Top 20" on Amazon.com,
which has never happened to a Top Shelf title before. -- By that Friday,
the back orders in the Diamond system had already exceeded the 2nd printing
of 10,000, which is scheduled to hit stores in October. So, we went ahead
and ordered another 20,000 copies for the 3rd printing, to arrive in
December. If you see a copy, be sure to pick it up right away, as these new
printings are likely to sell out in short order as well.
In any event, if you still need convincing about this groundbreaking
"adults only" title, over fifty articles, reviews, and interviews with Alan
Moore and Melinda Gebbie have already been published in USA Today,
Publishers Weekly, and many other publications. All are brilliantly
informative about the project, and we've linked to most of them here (in
case you'd like to read some of them):
