Here’s the deal. Not enough copies of this have been pre-ordered to make printing it profitable. I suspect that’s because A) it got lost in the shuffle amidst all the new book announcements, and B) people mistakenly assume it is #1 of a series and decide they will wait for the graphic novel. Option A is understandable. Option B is not. To Fight With Monsters is a one-shot, single-issue. There will be no further issues. It costs $6. Cheaper than a paperback book. It is co-written with Mike Oliveri and based on our post-apocalyptic story from the long-out-of-print 4X4. If you pre-order from the publisher before March 22nd, you might win one of many cool prizes signed by Mike or myself. So go take care of that by clicking here.

I’m already getting two copies as a Lifer for both these guys, and _I_ preordered one. Skip the value meal at Taco Bell one night and kick the $6 in to support something worthwhile … and get what’s sure to be a mean one-shot in the process. No way to be disappointed: tacos can’t be MONSTERS.
Whew! Took care of that!
I pre-ordered 4 copies the minute it became available. Not only is this a completely incredible story team-up, but it’s sure to be a collector’s item. If there’s one comic book I’m the most excited about in 2011, it’s this one.
I’m with you, Jason! It’s nice to have a copy to rifle through with sweaty, gluttonous hands so the signed one can stay clean and safe.
If I can give up my weekly fix of Subway to order a copy you guys can do it too!
