DC Comics Sends 4-Part 'Sacrifice' Story Back To Press

DC COMICS SENDS SUPERMAN #219, ACTION COMICS #829, ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN #642 AND WONDER WOMAN #219 BACK TO PRESS

WONDER WOMAN #219, featuring the shocking finale of the 4-part "Sacrifice" storyline, is now sold out at DC Comics, joining the sold-out SUPERMAN #219 and ACTION COMICS #829 as well as the nearly sold out ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN #642.

Now, DC rushes all four parts of this cataclysmic story back to press for second printings, starting with WONDER WOMAN #219 Second Printing (JUN058155). Along with the story written by Greg Rucka and illustrated by Rags Morales, David Lopez, Tom Derenick, Georges Jeanty, Karl Kerschl and others, this printing features a new cover by Ladrönn plus two pages summarizing the events of the first three chapters with art from those issues.

DC also offers the SUPERMAN #219 Second Printing (JUN058177), ACTION COMICS #829 Second Printing (JUN059175) and ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN #642 Second Printing (JUN059176). DC will confirm in-store dates and cover information on these new printings soon.

"I'm overjoyed that DC is going back to press so quickly not only on WONDER WOMAN #219 but on the other 'Sacrifice' chapters as well," says Rucka. "We knew from the start that this was going to be a crucial story in the build-up to INFINITE CRISIS, and it's really nice to see that our belief was valid."

"This story has had a huge impact with readers and retailers, and sales on all four parts have been brisk," says Bob Wayne, DC's VP Sales. "Retailers should place orders on all of these new printings as soon as possible to make sure they get sufficient quantities."

The WONDER WOMAN #219 Second Printing (JUN058155) is available for order now and is scheduled to arrive in stores on August 17 with a cover price of $2.50 U.S. To ensure delivery on that date retailers must place orders by Sunday, August 7; please note that quantities will be limited and may sell out before August 17. DC urges retailers to place orders as soon as possible to avoid missing out.

The SUPERMAN #219 Second Printing (JUN058177), ACTION COMICS #829 Second Printing (JUN059175) and ADVENTURES OF SUPERMAN #642 Second Printing (JUN059176) all
are available for order now. DC will confirm the order-by dates, in-store dates and cover information on these new printings soon.
