Bad Idea has announced that it’s wrapping up (we don’t believe them) but we’ll roll with the whole schtick. With that announcement, there’s still a question of what comics remain. The next wave has been teased and dubbed “the Final Five”.
The “final” wave from Bad Idea features five comics… but from who and what… who knows. But, Bad Idea always having some promotion is going out with a bang!
No details about the FINAL FIVE stories, titles or the creators will be revealed until Thursday, June 17th. However, one day prior to the unveiling will be the BAD IDEA’S FINAL FIVE PRE-ORDER DAY event — a chance to pre-order all five of the final BAD IDEA books and guarantee nothing BAD IDEA-y prevents collectors from completing their FINAL FIVE collection.
Here’s how BAD IDEA’S FINAL FIVE PRE-ORDER DAY event works:
- The FINAL FIVE is made up of five titles (15 issues) on-sale between August and December.
- Connect with any BAD IDEA Destination Store ONLY on Wednesday, June 16th (in-person or by any other means accepted by the store).
- Pre-order all five of the FINAL FIVE titles with your store. You are pre-ordering blind. No titles. No story details. No creative teams. Only the cover price and number of issues will be released by June 16th. Consult your store for their pre-order requirements.
- If you’re one of the first 10 people to pre-order all five titles at your store, you will be awarded a swanky FINAL FIVE redemption sticker.
- The sticker can be used to redeem, from BAD IDEA, one copy of the first book in the FINAL FIVE line-up. Why would you need to redeem another copy of a book you’ve just pre-ordered? Trust us, with what we’ve got planned, you’re gonna want the help.
Miss the BAD IDEA PRE-ORDER DAY and you’ll miss the FINAL FIVE redemption sticker, along with the second chance it grants. But, rest easy, you’ll still be able to pre-order any or all of the FINAL FIVE line-up until each books’ order deadline.
We’ll admit, it’s a hell of a way to measure what comic fans will buy sight and details unseen.
