Littlest Pet Shop #2 out tomorrow!

"I’m going to be honest with you guys—You are going to find this comic online. You won’t even have to look that hard. If you want to read it without buying it, you won’t even break a sweat trying.

Issue #1 sold a little over 8000 copies, which in IDW terms, is “not great.” It’s not the worst, and it doesn’t mean no more will be made after #5 necessarily, but it’s not the strongest vote of confidence. I knew #1 wasn’t impactful enough to overcome squeamish retailer purchases and I jumped on Twitter to be the first to say so, because it comes down to trust.

That’s not how I feel about the rest of the series, and this image above is an example of why. Most of the reviews for #1 said: “Some good character interaction, could be an episode.” Starting in #2, you’re going to see things that probably wouldn’t be in an episode, as the best reason to sustain a property in another medium is to give the audience something new. If you’ve ever wanted to see the pets fight like Pokemon, the Biskit twins walk all over boys or Zoe appear in a Twelve Monkeys scene, you’re welcome. And #5 is literal all-out war. With cannons.

If you like what you see online, I encourage you to support the series and get an issue. If the retailer didn’t order enough copies (or any copies), just ask him/her to order one. Keep in mind the orders for Lumberjanes are not very different from LPS, and they got the green light for renewal based on new orders after sell-out."

I'd be more interesting in the Biskits walking all over me.

I can believe that - but only if the comics start kicking more ass in general. Or else.
