The staff (Steve Geppi, John Clark) has talked about getting these comics into Walmart, Barnes and Noble, etc. Those stores would most definently buy larger quantities of the books than the typical comicbook store. I was wondering if anyone knew if the prestige format books will be available at these more recognizable, popular stores or just the newstand format books coming out in September. Hopefully, the prestige books can be purchased from say a Barnes and Noble, because their greatness deserves to be found by other people, especially those persons who normally would never enter a comicbook store.</FONT></HTML>
