Read a free preview of the book here, and an interview with Hero: 9 to 5 writer and creator Ian Sharman here.

Order from your local comic shop by quoting Diamond order code MAY130752, or pre-order now from any of these great online retailers:

TFAW - Forbidden Planet - Westfield Comics - Mail Order Comics

Midtown Comics - SciFi Genre

Please note: Due to the nature of the comic book industry, pre-ordering is essential to ensuring that you get a copy of the book. Please do not simply assume that your local comic shop will be ordering the book anyway, as it’s highly likely that unless you tell them you want it they won’t order it at all.

Pre-Order Hero: 9 to 5 – Quietus!

You have until May 18th to pre-order Hero: 9 to 5 – Quietus from your local comic shop.

If you want a copy then please don’t just assume your retailer will order it in and you’ll just be able to pick it up when you see it on the shelf in July, because odds are that you probably won’t. If you want it, preorder it. Preorder it now.

To aid you in this, here’s a handy form that you can print out and take along to your local comic shop. It includes all the details that they need to order the book for you. It’s as easy as that.

Alternatively, order it from your regular online retailer, such as Forbidden Planet.

Hey everyone!

Secondly, we’re launching a brand new graphic novel by the exceptionally talented Michael Georgiou, Elemental Micah – Just Exhale.

Elemental Micah will be on sale at the Orang Utan Comics booth and also direct from Michael Georgiou at his own table at LSCC.
