Antioch To Skip 3 & 4, Go Straight To Image Comics Collection

Image Comics series Antioch by Patrick Kindlon and Marco Ferrari recently had its third and fourth issues cancelled from solicitations. Kindlon tweeted “Those of you enjoying ANTIOCH may have noticed issue 3 has slipped from the schedule. We got blindsided by sickness and death. Ours, in the former instance, and a loved one’s in the latter. The result is that our issue three, after two pushes, missed the finish line by inches. So it is with heavy heart that we’ve made the decision to go straight to trade with ANTIOCH. It was a blow to both our egos, frankly. We can only ask forgiveness and assure you steps will be taken so this does not happen again. Thank you for your understanding.”

Antioch #1 and #2 were published in September and November, issue 3 was also meant to have been published with a Spawn variant cover. Here are the solicitation details below, as well as for the collection for the published and unpublished, now scheduled for May.
