But what about the likes of The Wicked and The Divine, Descender, and Velvet? Does Image have a certain criteria for putting out hardcovers of their books that anyone has been able to glean? Is it based purely on sales numbers?
Also, does anyone who does read the hardcovers worry that only the first volume of a series will get a hardcover? In other words, we know Rat Queens, Peter Panzerfaust, and Sex Criminals got hardcovers. But will they get a second volume in hardcovers?
