The May Vanity Fair includes an item on Minx and THE PLAIN JANES that reads, "You don't have to be a comic book geek to dig DC Comics' kicky new imprint, Minx." The April 9 Publishers Weekly includes a review that reads, "Minx . . . starts off with a bang with this elegant story of art in the suburbs. [Cecil] Castellucci and [Jim] Rugg nimbly make their larger point - that fear is an indulgence we must give ourselves permission to overcome - without ever preaching, and without neglecting the dynamics of a page-turning coming-of-age story." THE PLAIN JANES (FEB070235) is available for advance reorder and is scheduled to arrive in stores on May 16. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 100 BULLETS ISSUES TO BE RESOLICITED DC Comics will resolicit 100 BULLETS #84 (MAR070264) and 85 (APR070261).
