The Sword


Is anyone reading The Sword? I love the Luna Bros, but they’re really testing my patience with this one. It seems like a step down from their previous work. I’m gonna stop buying the monthlies after issue 12 – hopefully it’ll read better that way.

I'm sticking with it, but, it's trying my patience too. It would have made a cracking six-issue miniseries, but as an open-ended monthly, it just isn't cutting it (no pun intended).

The first issue was great - but since then it's just dragged. Surely sales can't be good on this series?

Erm... seems like the Sword sells something like 9,000 copies per issue in the States -- this according to cbgxtra.com. What's the break-even figure for a comic like this?

Oh...
Hmm. I would say 4000, 5000 is getting dangerous.
