BID Mailbag: Marvel’s Slashback program

digresssmlOriginally published March 16, 2001, in Comics Buyer’s Guide #1426

Well, we’ve been discussing Marvel a bit here at BID (what with this being, y’know, a newspaper about comics, so I figured I should do it on occasion just to keep my hand in). I should mention, by the way, that artist Michael Collins came up with what I think is a perfectly nifty name for the Marvel Silent Month. Ready? “Nuff Said Month.” So there it is.

I also tossed out a question to retailers, soliciting feedback over Marvel’s apparently abortive attempt to introduce what they called Marvel’s Slashback Month.
