Bad Idea talks about shutting down the business ahead of the Final Five pre-order event and assures fans it’s not just a publicity stunt.

Bad Idea shed light on the publisher’s upcoming shutdown and assured readers it wasn’t just a marketing ploy.

“Put simply, we have gone beyond anything we envisioned,” the company said in a written statement. “Our hope was to start a small publisher, make comics on our terms, and hopefully find a few like-minded misfits and troublemakers to read them. Try as much as possible to keep up with the growth, the hard way. truth is, the bad idea was never designed to work that way. “

“We assure you that Bad Idea ends as we know it in December,” the statement continued. “The Final Five is the latest wave of Bad Idea books. After that, it’s over.”

The aforementioned Final Five is a pre-order event that will take place on Wednesday, June 16, during which readers will have the opportunity to blindly commit to purchasing the final five Bad Idea items. Details of those stories will be revealed the next day, but only those who pre-ordered the day before will be able to get the titles.
