BPRD #100 and Beyond!

10/29/2012 10:00am

The move to monthly, continuous numbering is partly a point of pride—Mike and John and I are really happy with this series, and we sort of can't believe we've hit a hundred issues. But we're also doing it because we think it's clearer for retailers and readers. When we were doing lots of 5-issue arcs, a new #1 a couple times a year seemed like a good way to spike sales. But with more 2- and 3-issue stories, we've found ourselves with as many as five #1's in a year, and it can get very confusing. So while we do worry that there will be a bit of confusion as we make this switch—and we're open to any ideas about how to minimize confusion—we think that a few months from now, and going well into the future this will simply make it easier to look at issues of B.P.R.D. on the shelf and know in which order to rack them, buy them, and read them.
