VELVETEEN VS. THE MULTIVERSE cover reveal and update.

So I know you've all been waiting anxiously to see the cover of Velveteen vs. The Multiverse, and I am delighted to finally be able to oblige you. But! Nothing beautiful comes without a cost, and so I must regretfully inform you all that, due to production issues, Velveteen vs. The Multiverse has been delayed slightly, and will not be available at Musecon. Believe me, no one is more disappointed than I am.

Pre-orders are available now, and you can find the information here:

http://isficpress.com/multiverse.php

You may notice that the cover price has increased, from $25 for the first volume to $30. Well, that's because this volume is literally twice as long, and thus cost more to print. You are getting so much extra bang for your buck, I can't even begin to express my joy.

And now, behold the pretty:

OH MY GOD YOU GUYS OH MY GOD IT'S THE COVER TO VELVETEEN VS. THE MULTIVERSE AND IT'S GORGEOUS!

All the versions of Velveteen are there, Marionette and Roadkill and everybody! I could not be happier.

What do you think?

I noticed the price increase and assumed the book was longer, but TWICE as long? AWESOME!!

Yay cover!! I hope I get it before I leave for Texas so I can read it on the plane and get you to sign it in San Antonioooooooo.

Yeah, I opened the .ms files to confirm, and it's 114,000 words vs. 57,000 words. Like, literally twice as long.

Douglas Klauba. Bob Garcia, who has been doing our layouts, has worked with him for some time and recommended him. And he did a lovely job...

That is amazing!
Though Vel fills out her costume a bit more than I imagined. o.0

You were so happy about this at comic con and YOU DID NOT OVERSELL.

Ooooo, I really like how Velveteen looks more severe in this one. Shit is coming to a head and our playful mistress of the toybox is ready for it! =D

*hands you my money*

The cover looks so nice! Can't wait to get it

It's a must have! Between this & a backup copy of RR&DT you're getting all my.money and I'm at peace with that.

WOOO SHINY!!!!!!!

(I will be getting it in an e-edition, assuming there is one like there was for Vs the Multiverse, but I still appreciate the shiny cover art)

...I mean vs the Junior super patriots. Duh.

That looks fabulous! Not exactly how I pictured her in my head, but totally within the same general area, so yay, me, lol.

Very gorgeous! Consider it pre-ordered!

[identity profile] dillen-dagen.livejournal.com 2013-07-29 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
Love this! Will absolutely and happily pay more for this longer dine on the Velveteen world. Can't wait for the ebook edition so I can haul it to Dragoncon. Will the Ebook edition also be coming out mid August? It doesn't seem to be in the Barnes and Noble or Amazon lists yet.

I note that the first volume is available in Kobo e-book format from Chapters/Indigo in Canada (http://www.chapters.indigo.ca/books/velveteen-vs-the-junior-super/9780985798949-item.html).
