Media Release -- After last year's critically and commercially successful collaboration on the Green Hornet, Kevin Smith and Dynamite Entertainment are reuniting once again, with the creative team that brought the flagship Green Hornet series to fans; Phil Hester, Jonathan Lau, and Alex Ross on covers! This year, lightening will have struck twice as The Bionic Man #1, written by Kevin Smith, has sold out immediately and is going back for a second printing!
"We're incredibly happy with the sales of The Bionic Man #1, and that it sold out in the first day speaks volume for the faith in Kevin (Smith), Phil (Hester), Jonathan (Lau) and the entire team. We're going right back to press on issue #1 and they will be available in the next week or so. With #2 shipping in September, and the momentum building, we urge retailers to advance re-order #2's and order enough #3's. And check out the 2nd print cover to #1 with interior pages to #1. Thank you for all of your support!" states Dynamite President/Publisher Nick Barrucci.

"The Bionic Man is officially here. Leave it to Dynamite Entertainment along with Kevin Smith, Phil Hester and Jonathan Lau to revive the almost forgotten character." – Comic Vine
