    Apparently the first issue of the MLP/TFs comic is getting a second printing... which means it sold better than it was estimated it would (IDW must have thought it wouldn't sell too well and didn't print enough copies).

    It wouldn't be easy to find out, but I'd be interested in knowing the proportion of people buying this crossover comic who are Transformers fans and who are Pony fans... to see who it is appealing to more.

    The first issue of the My Little Pony crossover must have been delayed 2 weeks (from its new covid release date), as it appears as though it is coming out this week, as a preview has been released (which can be seen here)... and that 2nd printing news must have been due to pre-sales to comic shops selling out, rather than the comic itself selling out (meaning that comic store owners bought extra because they think it will do well, and we just have to wait and see if it actually does do well, if comic stores order more copies from the 2nd print).

    Galaxies #8 is out this week, and a preview can be seen here.

    There were also meant to be two other Transformers comics out this week, but maybe they have been delayed again.
