Hey, James! This offer will be good for probably the next two weeks, and then we'll do a second bookplate giveaway in conjunction with the bookstore release later this month, so you'll have multiple shots. Thanks so much for buying a copy!
I am so excited for this. I missed the tickets at Collectors Paradise but would you consider still at Revenge Of in Eagle Rock? It's an awesome comic book/ pinball shop. I love the people who work there.
I’m so happy I subscribed to Essential Sequential’s newsletter. I already order a A4 size full color commission from Nico. I’m not able to attend NYCC, but can’t wait to get it in the mail.
Loved your interview with David over at Off Panel, Brian. Great conversation about so much in comics. Hope Spectators gets all the love it deserves for you and Nico.
Heyyy, so glad you enjoyed it, Patrick! Thank you for listening. If anyone else would like to listen my chat with Brian (and feel free to delete this if this is too much promotion, Brian!), here's the podcast we recorded that just went up today: https://sktchd.com/podcast/off-panel-516-spectating-with-brian-k-vaughan/
We talked about Spectators, Saga, and a whole lot more. It's great!
D'oh, sorry I published today's Substack before I saw this was out, David! Such a great conversation, I'll definitely give this a proper plug in our next installment, huge thanks again!
Hi Brian, so wonderful to hear your voice again in my head. And ecstatic to get my hands on the HC edition of Spectators at my LCBS, Austin Books and Comics in Austin, TX (hint hint HINT) (LoL). So looking forward to re-reading Spectators on paper!
Congratulations on Spectators officially hitting shelves this week! Looking forward to picking up my copy Wednesday and starting a reread. From the story and art to the community you created around this project, being the smallest part of the Spectators journey has been a lot of fun.
Excited to see you both at NYCC! I've been fortunate enough to meet Brian at a past NYCC, but super stoked to catch Niko this time. I'll bring my copy for sure.
I can't WAIT to get my copy. Just like with Private Eye and a lot of other digital-firsts, while I don't mind reading a digital copy, I want to feel paper and turn pages.
I had not known about the signing at The Strand before you sent this out, and instantly bought a ticket. So there will be at least one giraffe there (well, an old school New Yawk BK V TV member turned giraffe).
See you then, and good luck on the launch!
EDIT: Oh wow, i had forgotten what the old bkv site links you to, lol.... edited that link tout suite :)
It was SOOOO nice to see you at The Strand last night BKV! I was Jen's friend at the end with the Swamp Thing #1 (because I like giving you stuff to sign you don't see often!). The Q&A last night was very fun and interesting, and thanks for staying past 9pm to get the last line stragglers like me. You are a class act!
FYI I too am one of the Tower members that has not yet read Spectators, preferring to read it all in one sitting. Going to devour it this weekend or next with a couple gin and tonics :)
Ahh! This is so exciting (yet terribly terrifying for my wallet)! I'll be in New York for the first two days of Comic-Con flying all the way over from Sydney, Australia. I've just bought a ticket for the Strand event (looks like I'll have a second copy of Spectators), and I've also put in a request for a commission from Nico (a bit of an unusual one, Evil Eye from Dandadan - hoping to get it signed by the English voice actor as well). Brian, if you are able to do a signing at the convention as well, that will be incredible. That may mean I have to crack open my CGC copy of Y: The Last Man to get you and Jose to sign it, as it's already signed by Pia.
The hardcover looks gorgeous! Also, nice to have you here in Europe soon!
How long will the the free bookplate be available? I'd love to do this, but I'm still waiting on my copy from Collector's Paradise.

Oh thank dog.

Love those folks, will definitely do a signing there one of these days, Jenny!

If (once) it is banned you’ll be joining some illustrious company!

I ordered a signed copy!
Thanks so much, Steven!
This is really cool and generous of you. I would love to show off my copy, but will be sadly weeks before it reaches me from my us forwarding address.
Another giveaway coming, so never too late to post, thanks, David!
So excited for the hardcover! This * might * convince me to rejoin Instagram for a short period.
I know social media is a largely unpleasant timesuck, so no pressure, Katie!

Same! So happy with how it turned out, hope you dig it...
It's also so nice to re-read serialized stories once they're complete.
Just hoping my LCS ordered 20+!
Congratulations!
And meanwhile I remain the happy custodian of that X-Men piece by Nico….
Jealous! Hope you've been well, Malcolm!
