Just heard they are canceling Dead Rabbit and issuing recall, anyone know why. Can't find news about it. I enjoyed the first 2 issues, seemed like a crime book with potential

Did they recall issues 1 & 2? If so I can see stores choosing to dump their copies on e-bay as "recalled comic. rare.etc"

I too was enjoying the book, hope they work it out or just change the name.

I just checked and your right. The NYCC copy has completed sales today of $20-69. Multiple BIN OBO starting at 59.

May have to let go of my spare.

Silly question....so a comic book store has to return any unsold copies as part of the recall...

What happens three months down the line when someone sells a copy back to the comic book store, does anyone know what their obligation is? Is it up to the owner or are they still obligated to return it?

Just out of curiosity...

I think they'd only be beholden to their original allocation

They are asked to return them, but I don't think most would do it.

Heley the Hooters Girl was recalled, but I bought multiples after the recall.

I'm not a lawyer, but i think they'd have to prove 2 million dollars in damages in order to get 2 million dollars.

It was only registered for comics on 9/4/18. The lawyer's letter was mailed 10/22.
How difficult would it be to change the name and publish the comic?

There's a gold foil version that I wouldn't mind owning. All of mine are the regular version.
