[Sugar Daddy]

When do the previews for July's comics come out? Is there a set date for the new previews every month? Thanks

Monday at midnight. DC sets the time each month when the info can be made public. It's usually the second or third Tuesday of the month. They actually send everything out a week in advance so that all the sites have enough time to put it together. It only takes me a few hour to do it though. :cool:

Thanks. What would DC do if you put the comics information out early?

Apparently they would just stop giving you the information if you didn't post it at the correct time (any truth there, Brian?). Which begs the question that if every comics news site put up the information early, would DC never release the info before PREVIEWS came out? Deep thoughts.

Marvel prevented this by telling news sites to release the info the day PREVIEWS comes out, which is kind of a pain for geeky people like myself.

As for PREVIEWS itself, it's always the last Wednesday of the month.

According to DC, releasing the info early would result in "permanent loss of access to this and all future advance material." I remember about a year ago that Newsarama posted the full solicitations almost a week early and had to take it down within a few hours. DC still sends them the info, but they don't post the entire solicitations any more.

PREVIEWS is the ultimate fan tool. It lists everything that you'll find in your comic book shop in two months and then some. Retailers use it to order, and most will sell it to customers to place their own orders.

Cool, thanks

Wooo! I'm all hyped about this! I hope that they don't spoil the BWF storyline too much by the covers. :( :p ;) :cool: Nice avatar, sugar Daddy! :D
