And Happy New Year From Chapterhouse!

If the books scheduled to be released by Chapterhouse in December were treated like Christmas presents, the publisher will continue treating us into the new year.

We are happy to announce a new pricing structure for our Chapterverse range of superhero titles, with every monthly comic priced at $1.99 US, and all trade paperback collections priced at $9.99 US! 
The new $1.99 price point applies to all Chapterverse titles in 2018, including Captain Canuck, Fantomah, Freelance, and The Pitiful Human Lizard.

CEO Fadi Hakim says that the new price really makes sense for the fans. “We’ve become big enough to receive sizeable savings from our printer, and in turn, we’re passing on that savings to our retailers and readers. You can now get our entire universe for between four to six dollars a month!” 
... 
The $1.99 initiative kicks off in January 2018 with the second seasons of two of our most acclaimed titles; Freelance, starring gay superhero Lance Valiant, and Fantomah, featuring a revival of the Golden Age horror icon. The $1.99 price also applies to the new 2018 seasons of Captain Canuck, Pitiful Human-Lizard, Fallen Suns, Northguard, and two new titles to be announced next year.

The $9.99 trade paperback price will apply to the entire Chapterverse line, including Captain Canuck: Aleph, Captain Canuck: Gauntlet, Captain Canuck: Harbinger, The Pitiful Human-Lizard: Far From Legendary, The Pitiful Human-Lizard: Still Pretty Pathetic, Freelance: Angel of the Abyss, and Fantomah: Up From The Deep.

To be entirely honest, I was far less interested in books like Freelance and Fantomah, said to be in the "Chapterverse" but not directly connected to the Captain. At that new price, I might be more likely to give them a try.

The Agents Of Pact trade paperback was not mentioned in the text above but its price is listed as $9.99 in the January solicitations as well.

Now let's impatiently wait to hear about those two news titles to be announced in 2018...
