Ancient Prophecy
Johanna, knowing my
interest in
Prophecy Magazine (now
Prophecy
Anthology), wrote to let me know that the
Prophecy home page has been
updated with the following info:
Prophecy Anthology, Volume 1 Releases March 15th, 2004
Prophecy Anthology will make its debut on March 15th, 2004, featuring a
collection of sequential art by artists such as Shannon Wheeler, Scott
McCloud, Sho Murase, Yuko Shimizu, Nathan Fox and Bernie Mireault.
The anthology will be shipped on March 15th to Prophecy Magazine
subscribers as well as to customers who pre-purchased the anthology.
The book will release in comic books stores nationwide the first week
in April, 2004, through Diamond Distribution. For more information
regarding the Anthology, check out our What's Inside
page.
Sure enough, searching through
Diamond's
text file for April orders, there it is:

Thanks for the info, Johanna. I'm a bit surprised by the price,
but I'll wait to check out the full solicitation in Previews before I
make a decision about getting this. It would have been nice if
Sequent Media had provided more info about the book on their site (page
count? dimensions? format? full contents?), especially if they're
expecting people to buy it right off their site. Why is it so
hard for companies (not just comic companies) to put together a
competent, professional web presence? (Ignore me: I QA web
applications for my day job, so stuff like this makes me cranky.)
