Looking For Grave Tales 1, 2, and 3 Limited Editions

[Dan Hocker]

Does anyone out there have copies of the Grave Tales 1, 2, and 3 limited editions?

I'd like to get some questions answered about that and if anyone would be willing to part with them let me know and we can work something out.

I may have one or two of them. I will add that to my homework for tonight.

Ok so after some testing. I think I actually only need a copy of Grave Tales 2. Either edition would work. I'd still like to pick up copies of the limiteds if anyone is willing to part with them as we apparently didn't hold onto copies for the office.

Mine are later editions. Sorry.

No problem. Mindy actually found the hardcovers in her stuff at home. But it looks like they are on similar paper as the regular comics. Which is fine, because as it turns out the paper is thick enough in the regular comics that it can be scanned without bleed through. Which means I only have to disassemble 1, 2, and 3 regular comics instead of destroying the hardcovers to scan them.

I need scans... Trust me, if my plans work out you'll want the end product more than you'll care about me pulling staples from 3 comics.

So, Grave Tales eBooks or a larger book of all past issues. I am intrigued.

I could probably put them out as regular eBooks, but the viewing experience wouldn't be very good. I don't know how to do the digital comics the way they are on Comixology. Currently we have issues planned through #10. Which would be a good time to do an Omnibus collection of 1 - 10. The problem is we don't have digital files for 1, 2, and 3.

Wow! An omnibus of 1-10 would be awesome!!!

Completely agree!

No promises though. Gotta make sure the contracts allow it, if not we'd have to reissue new contracts. We have to make sure we can get good enough scans for the first three. And obviously we have to get 8, 9, and 10 out the door. Though there seems to be some progress there, which is what initiated this whole thing.

So you will have it out by the end of the year then, good to hear!
