I've held off ordering this till now, but I'm about to do so. is there any reason NOT to get it online, like from Amazon? For example, I got the Zoo one from...
Ok, yeah, I'm replying to myself - I've been looking for info. Dan - there is supposed to be a mini-comic with the book, so to be sure to get one, you may have...
Hi Dan, Actually, I need to correct my own earlier misinformation on this. The comic book giveaway is actually a promotion for the paperback edition of 'Akiko...
... How will fans who already own the Zoo book be able to see this minicomic work? Will you be eventually including it in a collection, or reprinting it in the...
As always - giveaways are wonderful, but prone to confusion. So, now I have time (June instead of next week), but I guess the question still is the same - if I...
Hey um this isn't as cool as my subject might have led you to believe but I still think it's cool. I must admit I always read Gaiman's blog and today he...

Hey everyone, how're ya doing? I checked on amazon.com and I realized that the release of the new Akiko book is in 5 days!!!!! How could I forget? I quickly...
Hi friends! Sorry I haven't posted for a while. Today is the day the new Akiko novel is due in stores. I heard that some stores had it out early, actually, so...
... grump. ... Well, our B&N hasn't carried any of the Akiko books. I've had to get them all from Amazon or my local comics shop. Of course, this means I was...
Hello, fellow Akiko fans. I'm very happy and relieved that the new Akiko novel is out this week. It's been far too long since we've had any new Akiko...
I was so tempted to cut out the first panel from the story and post it, sort of like Mark did with his story, since that included the "who did what" piece, but...
Mark, you really didn't pop a 7.2 second wheelie, did you? Awfully long, ain't it.................. Okay, if none of you know what I'm talking about, then get...
Thanks for the post, Dan! I think you're right that the space between issues is going to prevent me from doing long stories like 'Boach's Keep'. I think it may...
Wow guys!! And we can all say "we knew them when..."!! Congratulations. And, just so you know, Mark, I've still got a bunch of folks waiting for 50 to come ...
I'd hate for there not to be an issue 51. I realize the space between issues is going to much longer but I've seen other comics fall into the land of specials...
Josh, I am also sad that there probably won't be an issue #51, but I think I understand the reasons why. Let's face it; more stores are likely to order more...
I hope that Mark does continue with Akiko #51, #52, etc. --- I like numbering of issues. Now, given that, maybe the issues can come less frequently, and more...
I agree - numbering is pretty important. Even if a special comes out, I'd rather see it numbered sequentially than not. I've often guessed at (and not had any...
Marvel restarted all their issues at number 1, then realized what a mistake that was. These days, you see two numbers on issues - the "new" number, and ...
I know I've been away for a while so my opinion may be somewhat off-base, but I had to write when I read the feedback regarding the possibility of Akiko...
I agree that starting over at #1 is bad, that trick really doesn't work anymore in terms of boosting sales. But I can see how higher numbers would intimidate...
I don't see any advantage to starting the numbering over at #1. That just makes it harder for collectors who want to get all the issues. Action Comics is now...
... Those are the exceptions, though. Many titles have moved to the "series of miniseries" approach as a way to get attention more frequently. Readers like new...
