Omega Flight #2 Sold Out!!!

[Alpha Fan]

From comicscontinuum.com

Marvel Comics has announced that Omega Flight #2 and Marvel Zombies/Army of Darkness #3 have sold out. According to the publisher, there are no current plans to go back to press on either issue.

When will they announce the ongoing??? This is great news!!!

[Captain Primate]

holy crap - I've never been more relieved to read a forum post. I had this horrible worry that the second issue wouldn't perform like the first, and Marvel might view the high sales of the first issue as a fluke. So, to find out that issue #2 has sold out as well fills me with glee and makes me laugh like a giddy school girl.

AWESOME!!!!

Good stuff. Shall we go for a hat trick? 8)

If it doesn't become an on-going I will be shocked now.

this is awesome.

If Issue 3 sells out, I think it'll basically guarentee an ongoing.

Omega Flight #2 Soars to Another Sell Out

Oh Canada ! Marvel is pleased to announce that Omega Flight #2 has sold out at Diamond. Following the first adventure of Canada ’s newest superhero team, formed to combat the fallout from Civil War and tying into Marvel’s hugely popular Initiative storyline, Omega Flight has sold out of its first two issue—that’s “deux pour deux” in Canadian! But don’t mention that to US Agent—he’s still getting used to the metric system!

“I knew OMEGA FLIGHT had legs, but I’m thrilled to see that it’s standing so tall amongst all the fresh comics on the stands today,” said series editor Andy Schmidt. “It’s really nice to see that so many retailers and fans alike have such confidence in the Canadian super hero book that could. If you haven’t checked it out yet, then you’re missing out on five issues of pure pulp love.”

With the battle against the Wrecking Crew heating up, fans can’t miss the rest of this exciting limited series! Please note that Omega Flight #2 may still be available at the retail level. Maple syrup, hockey and now Omega Flight—maybe some of the best things do come from Canada ! At this Marvel has no plans to go back to press on Omega Flight #2.

WooT!! So glad to hear this. I got my local comic store owner of New Moon Comics to check out these boards and is behind the "movement" as well hehe. I asked him how #2 was doing compared to #1. He said not as well. Apparently its doing great elsewhere. I really hope we hear something soon about possible ongoing status. I would love to keep the same creative team. They are doing a great job and im really enjoying the ride.

[SephirothsKiller]

I'm happy, but in truth.... Horrible press release. Oh God was it ever horrible. It was like a press release from an alternate universe where everything is acted out like a scene from a B-Movie.

anyone know if actual sales numbers are available somewhere? I'm very curious. The excitement we're all feeling might be tempered by how many issues were actually sold. A printing run of 50,000 selling out is far better than a printing run of 5000

The numbers for OF #1 should be out in an other week or so.

just for future reference, where do the numbers get published? Does Diamond post sales data on their site?
