Video ad for Scream and Misty Special!

Back in the heyday of British comics, every new launch (and many free gift issues) from the mainstream publishers was advertised on TV in short, snappy ads. Now, Rebellion have replicated that to an extent with an online ad for the upcoming Scream and Misty Halloween Special, out on 18th October. 

You can see the ad on You Tube here:

Rebellion do seem very keen for the special to work. From the advert. The fact that they brought out an alternate Misty & Scream! cover to attract extra readers.

I wonder if they have further plans for it?

It'll depend on how well it sells, Sid. There was talk of doing a different comic special next year but I haven't heard any more about it yet. They tend to give exclusives to the Hollywood Reporter to break the news so I guess that's where we'll see the first reveals.

Sounds good. Maybe Rebellion could concentrate on the likes of Buster?

Though I was hoping that they will develope Scream! & Misty further.

I'm sure they'll have plans for Scream and Misty if it proves popular. Don't expect to see any new weekly comics though. They have no plans on that front, from what I've been told.
