July 7th, 2008, LOS ANGELES – Released on April 30th to critical acclaim, Hercules: The Thracian Wars #1 and Caliber: First Canon of Justice #1 has been a big hit with both retailers and fans. Despite efforts to satisfy the public with extra copies of Hercules and Caliber printed in case of a sellout, the demand for more continues to grow. Because of this, Radical Publishing is pleased to announce that a 2nd printing is on the way for both titles. Marvel is pleased to announce that due to overwhelming demand for Incredible Hercules #118, which led to a quick sellout at Diamond, the issue will return with Incredible Hercules #118 Second Printing Variant! The critically-acclaimed series from the red-hot writing duo of Greg Pak & Fred Van Lente, along with rising star artist Rafa Sandoval, present the newly formed God Squad on a mission to defeat the Skrull gods in this Secret Invasion tie-in. But what does Nightmare have to do with all this? And who isn't what they seem? Incredible Hercules #118 Second Printing Variant features Sandoval's stunning interior art on a new cover. May 30th, 2008, LOS ANGELES – For issue #3 of Hercules and Caliber solicited for July 2008 in Diamond’s May Previews, Radical wanted to assign one special artist to each of the covers. After searching for the perfect fit, Radical Publishing is proud to announce that award winning British artist John Bolton is providing a cover for Hercules: The Thracian Wars #3 and director/writer/artist Tomm Coker is providing one for Caliber: First Canon of Justice #3. Marvel is pleased to announce that Incredible Hercules #117, the beginning of “Sacred Invasion,” has sold out at Diamond. To meet the overwhelming demand for this Secret Invasion tie-in, Marvel is going back to press with Incredible Hercules #117 Second Printing Variant! Written by the acclaimed duo of Greg Pak and Fred Van Lente, teamed with rising star artist Rafa Sandoval, this issue sees Hercules assembling a self-styled “God Squad” to battle the Skrull invasion. This issue’s cover features the powerful interior art of Sandoval, depicting Hercules in the midst of battle! April saw Secret Invasion begin its takeover of the Marvel Universe as the first issue was met with an almost instant sellout and was subsequently rushed back to press for a second printing. As the invasion spreads throughout other Marvel titles, the sellouts continue! Diamond Comic Distributors, the world’s largest distributor of English-language comics, today announced it has signed a special distribution agreement with Radical Publishing to exclusively distribute their products to comic book, game, and specialty store markets worldwide. Diamond was also awarded the rights to exclusively distribute Radical Publishing’s new releases to the book market under the banner of its sister company, Diamond Book Distributors.  Brandon Borzelli's Geek Goggle Reviews Hulk vs. Hercules: When Titans Collide Hercules against the Hulk could be a fun, little, out of continuity story. Unfortunately for this one it starts off on a couple of bad feet. It’s a fairly tame story that illustrates more about how everyone screws over the Hulk and shows how the Herc-ster isn’t really a pure good guy. I’m not sure we learned anything new about either character in this story. Perhaps the hope is if someone is reading one title and not the other they might get some cross pollination. As you can I’m struggle with why this exists.
