AUGUST 2025 PREORDER HIGHLIGHTS

AUGUST 2025 PREORDER HIGHLIGHTS

With the demise of the all-from-one comic distribution system each publisher now has a different ordering system and most have their own preorder catalogues. Mk1 has combed through the latest announcements and we present our picks from the AUGUST 2025 release schedule below along with direct links to each publisher's PDF catalogue. 

----------

HOW OUR COMIC PREORDER / SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE WORKS :   Overview: Preorder comics via the MK1 site and we will notify you when your orders arrive and bill you at a time of your choosing.

We put aside copies of every new release comic that our subscribers request. Customers are advised when a preorder arrives via the YOUR COMICS weekly email. The MK1 website will send a payment link according to each subscriber's SHIPPING PREFERENCE (weekly/monthly or pick up instore). Subscribers can choose to pay and get their comics straight away or they can choose to pay and have items held at the shop to be picked up instore or sent with a future delivery (by choosing HOLD ASIDE - DON'T SHIP YET).  Check out the Full User Guide here.
