Image Comics ‘Backs The Comeback’ With Comeback Logo Appearing on the Cover of June 17 Titles
On May 13, 2020, Diamond Comic Distributors and Alliance Game Distributors partnered to launch the “Back The Comeback” campaign, a multi-part initiative designed to support local comic book and game stores as they began to safely reopen, restart, and rebuild following the easement of nationwide stay-at-home orders amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Now, as comic book and game stores across the country have resumed selling new weekly product, many publishers such as Image Comics have rallied behind the campaign to support retailers by including the “Back The Comeback” logo on the cover of their newest titles. Image Comics is the latest publisher to support the initiative by including the logo on the cover of their June 17 on-sale titles.
Family Tree #6 and Gideon Falls #22 from Image Comics will be hitting shelves on June 17, complete with the “Back The Comeback” featured on the front cover. Family Tree #6 (FEB200178) continues the tale of an 8-year old girl who begins mysteriously transforming into a tree, and the journey of her dysfunctional family in their attempt to find the cause of the transformation and stop it. In Gideon Falls #22 (MAR200061; MAR200062), which features the logo on the main and variant covers, the Eisner-Awarding winning series reaches a tipping point as the heroes find themselves strewn across the Gideon Falls multiverse after the destruction of the Black Barn that contained. Our heroes are up against old West, cyberpunk, and 1984 versions of their reality.
Back the Comeback in-store promotions for game stores are in the works and will be announced shortly.
