Battle Beast #1, launching the new Invincible storyline created by writer Robert Kirkman and artist Ryan Ottley, has orders for "nearly 400,000 copies worldwide," and has sold out at the distributor level prior to release, Skybound and Image announced.  Sales were likely helped by the companies’ blind bag promotion, by which consumers could buy a comic to get a listed variant, or a surprise comic (see "Launches New Invincible Universe Series").

The issue is going back to press, with three covers announced, by Ottley, Jason Howard, and Ryan Sook.  The second printing will be released June 11, 2025.
