Red 5 is proud to make its Diamond Previews catalog debut in the August 2007 issue released last week. For those unfamiliar, Previews is a monthly listing of all the merchandise available to your local comic book specialty store, listed a few months in advance to allow each store to pre-order the comics they want to receive.
We were particularly honored to have all three of our debut titles receiving “spotlight” or “feature” placement, a rarity for first-time publishers. Atomic Robo #1 and Neozoic #1 were spotlighted, while Kevin Rubio’s Abyss #1 was presented as a feature item. Abyss was also selected as one of only twelve comics to be showcased on Diamond’s website.
Since Red 5 Comics is a brand new publisher, stores will likely carry our titles only if customers specifically ask for them. If you would like to support Red 5 Comics, please print out this page and take it to your favorite comic shop in early August and ask them to pre-order your copies. The code in red is the Diamond order number.

Just saw your listing in Previews catalogue. I’d like to know more about these series, they sound interesting. But to decide if I want to preorder any of them I need previews of interior art. Could you please put up some pages, before orders are due (Aug. 16th)? Otherwise I’ll have to pass. TIA.
