Media Release -- BIRDS OF PREY #1, the debut issue of the hot new series from writer Gail Simone and artist Ed Benes, has sold out at DC comics and will return in a new, second printing!
Media Release -- Due to an error, retailers served by Diamond's Los Angeles warehouse will receive the BIRDS OF PREY #2 (APR100150) on June 23, one week late.
According to the publisher, the February-shipping issues of Robin, Nightwing and Birds of Prey will be the final issues of the respective series.
As well as being the final issues, Robin #183, Nightwing #153 and Birds of Prey #127 will end eras for Batman-related titles, as each stretches back at least nine years.
The three titles were roughly in the middle of DC’s lineup, sales-wise, with Nightwing seeing sales of over 50,000 copies to comic shops for September, while Robin and Birds of Prey saw sales of 32,000 and 21,000 copies, respectively.
DC declined to say if the series’ cancellations were due to sales, or if the three titles would be replaced by three new titles in 2009.
