The Standard #3 Debuts Worldwide July 10th!
June 23, 2013
Things have been quiet on here for a wee bit, as Standard HQ has been hard at work putting the finishing touches on The Standard #4. But I’m emerging from the bunker with some news. Readers in Glasgow and on the convention circuit have been able to get their hands on The Standard #3 since last summer, but the Diamond worldwide releases have now caught up to those earlier print run. So now, The Standard #3 is currently scheduled to hit selected comic shops worldwide on July 10th!
Did you request for your local comic shop to order in a copy? If you didn’t, you can still get them to reorder it with the order code APR130994. But hurry: both issues #1 and #2 sold out at distributor level, so if you don’t want to miss out get your orders in pronto! If you enjoyed the first two issues and are keen to come back for this instalment, I thank you for your patience. Hopefully you’ll find this issue to be the best yet. Until issue #4, that is! Here’s a look at the cover and the solicit for the issue:
