Our Blog post LAST CALL (FOC) is updated weekly : https://mk1.co.nz/blogs/news/last-call-foc

Every week we lock in the shop's orders from a list of upcoming comics. It is our last chance to increase or decrease our orders from the latest batch of comics and variant covers before they start shipping. And every week we update our highlights list - pointing out any new series and special covers we think our subscribers will love.

This week's highlights list is live now - with preorders due Monday morning. You can place preorders by messaging us or using the Preorder app Manage Comics.
