About the comic

[easol.livejournal.com]

I've been eagerly anticipating the Stephen King prequel comic "Gunslinger Born" (there aren't a lot of comic stores in my vicinity), and when I was reading up on it, I saw that it was originally meant to debut almost a year before it did.

So I was wondering, for those of you with more knowledge of this sort of thing than I, do you think that LKH was sorta jumping on the bandwagon with the "Guilty Pleasures" comic? She's shown a willingness to jump on popular bandwagons before (IE, calling her main character a "Vampire Hunter", etc).

Or am I miles off, and it's just a coincidence that this came out half a year after the ORIGINAL release date of the Gunslinger comics? (Note: this may be the case, just because I don't have the faintest idea how long it takes to make a poor comic book)

I've also been wondering about the comic's sales. Usually her book sales are good if brief, but LKH and Co. have been pretty desperate for cover quotes, and they've been pimping it pretty hard. Has it done badly, well, or neither terribly nor wonderfully?
