"Nextwave" makes waves

Looks like Marvel’s “Nextwave,” which I profiled in a recent column, is a hit: The first issue sold out. That doesn’t necessarily mean you won’t find a copy at your friendly, neighborhood comic-book shop, but it does mean that Diamond Comics Distributors doesn’t have any copies left for retailers who want more. So Marvel will be releasing a second printing of the first issue that will have a few extras. Titled “Nextwave No. 1: Director’s Cut,” it will include writer Warren Ellis’ pitch for the series, his script for issue No. 1 and some cast designs by artist Stuart Immonen. Look for it next month.
