Noah Broessel of Pop Culture Paradise in Tempe, Arizona has obviously been viewing comments on Marvel from retailers that oppose its no overprint policy and had this to say.

Ilan Strasser of Fat Moose Comics and Games in Whippany, New Jersey saw the comment by ICv2 founder Milton Griepp on comic collectability and had this to say.

From Entertainment Weekly to Ain't It Cool News to the TheForce.net , the entertainment world has been buzzing this week about a potential Star Wars animated series that has reportedly been offered to the Cartoon Network.

World According to Griepp was a monthly column written by ICv2 founder Milton Griepp in Internal Correspondence, ICv2's print predecessor. This is the first such column written for ICv2.

The second printing of Batman #608, which was about 30% of the size of the first printing, has sold out at the distributor level less than a week after it hit stores.

Viz Director of Manga Sales and Marketing Dallas Middaugh told ICv2 today that Viz has decided to abide by its decision to eliminate most of its direct U.S. customers for manga.

DC Comics-based live action series Birds of Prey is about to be canceled by the WB, according to Variety .

Retailers reporting their top dollar products to ICv2 based on October sales listed products with retail prices varying by over a factor of 100, showing that it's not necessarily a high price (or a low one) that produces big dollar volume.

Sales rankings obtained by ICv2 for one recent week's sales in U.S. bookstores as compiled by a major industry reporting service showed eighteen of the top twenty graphic novel slots and all of the top ten held by manga titles.

The hugely successful Superfriends animated series is going to be released on VHS and DVD beginning in April of 2003.
