Comic Foundry Fall 2008: COMING OCT. 8TH

We finally got word from our printer that there will be no delay, and so I'm happy to say that the next issue of Comic Foundry will be hitting stands next week on Wednesday, October 8th. If don't have a copy reserved at your local store, you can always buy one at Comic Foundry or Midtown Comics, though we encourage you to support your local retailer by asking them to order it and purchasing through them.
