BOOM! Studios has announced that Jonesy #1 has sold out at the distributor level, and a second print is being made available to accomodate demand. You can preorder the 2nd print edition from your comic book retailer until this Monday, March 21st, and it will arrive on shelves by April 6th.
Official press release:
Readers Are Over the Moon in Love
with ‘Jonesy’
Jonesy #1 2nd Print Cover by Caitlin Rose BoyleMarch 14, 2016 (Los Angeles, Calif.) – Award-winning publisher BOOM! Studios is excited to announce that readers are smitten with Jonesy, the new limited series from heartbreakers Sam Humphries (Legendary Star Lord, Weirdworld) and Caitlin Rose Boyle (Buck n’ Lou & the Night Crew), as the issue has sold out through its first printing at the distributor level. The publisher has rushed to a second printing to fill demand.
Jonesy #1 saw an impressive 46% increase in retailer orders from initial orders to Final Order Cutoff. The debut issue saw another 25% increase when participating retailers placed their order for the second annual In-Store Convention Kickoff exclusive variant cover. This most recent sellout comes on the heels of activity following the In-Store Convention Kickoff.
Jonesy #1 second print ships with a modified cover by Boyle and carries a retail price of $3.99 under Diamond Code JAN168899. Orders close on March 21, and copies are anticipated to be in stores on April 6. Jonesy #2 arrives in stores on March 16 and is also currently available for reorder.
Jonesy is a self-described “cool dork” who spends her time making zines nobody reads, watching anime, and listening to riot grrrl bands and 1D simultaneously. But she has a secret nobody knows: She has the ability to make people fall in love! Anyone, with anything. She’s a teenager in plaid with Cupid powers. There’s only one catch—it doesn’t work on herself. She’s gonna have to find love the old-fashioned way, and in the meantime, figure out how to distract herself from the real emotions she inevitably has to face when her powers go wrong.
