The first issues of the smash Image Comics hits Sex Criminals and Manifest Destiny have sold out at Diamond Comics Distributors again, sending Sex Criminals back to press for a fifth printing and Manifest Destiny back for a third, Image Comics announced today.Rather than create another new variant cover, the company will reprint Sex Criminals #1 with the fan-favorite photo cover that depicts writer Matt Fraction and artist Chip Zdarsky getting their photographs taken with the first print of the comic in what appears to be a cheesy, 1980s-style studio photograph. On the cover, Zdarsky identifies himself as “The guy who talks to Applebee’s on Facebook,” a reference to a true-life habit of his that went viral recently.The publisher also noted that Chris Dingess and Matthew Roberts’ critically-acclaimed Manifest Destiny #1 sold out its second printing immediately and will head into its third. The history/fantasy storyline is one of a few major launches from Robert Kirkman’s Skybound imprint.
