FEAR ITSELF #1 Third Printing variant cover

Marvel is pleased to announce that the first two chart topping issues of FEAR ITSELF, the blockbuster event of 2011, have sold out of their first and second printings! The two books return with FEAR ITSELF #1 Third Printing Variant and FEAR ITSELF #2 Third Printing Variant, featuring sketch covers from artist Steve McNiven. The entire Marvel Universe must band together to stop the chaotic rampage of the God of Fear as he joins forces with the new Red Skull to destroy it! But when seven deadly champions of Fear arise, can the combined might of Earth’s Mightiest end their quest for chaos?

“We couldn’t be happier with the response from fans and retailers alike for Fear Itself,” said David Gabriel, Marvel SVP of Sales. “Retailers really got behind us for this event, and we want to thank them for doing an exceptional job and their continued faith in each issue – but we’re not done yet!”

Retailers agree—Fear Itself is the must-read event of 2011!

“Fear Itself has caused quite a commotion at Midtown Comics, and I mean that in the most positive of ways. Customers are buying the books, they are excited, and intent on following this through to the end. Fear Itself is hot.” – Gerry Gladston, Midtown Comics

“Marvel Comics and all the people involved with this big summer blockbuster event have created a vast canvas for all these incredible characters to run wild on with Fear Itself. The best thing they ever did was not make all the tie-ins mandatory reads. But as good as everything has been most everything Fear Itself have become Must Reads.” – Mike Malve, Atomic Comics

“Fear Itself has been the most successful Marvel event we've seen since Civil War. Customers in both of our stores are pumped every week about the tie-ins just as much as they are the main series.” – Steve Anderson, Third Eye Comics
