Sam & Max on the cover of PiQ magazine
Posted by emily April 16, 2008
Sam & Max fans won't want to miss this. PiQ is a new pop/geek/anime/culture magazine, and Sam & Max is the cover story in issue #2, which just hit newsstands this week. We got copies today and we're really excited about the article. It's a six-page story that talks about the games, Surfin' the Highway, and the animated series DVD, plus there's a nice interview with Steve Purcell. This is our first cover story with game art on the cover (we've done a few others, but the covers have been paintings by Steve), and it came out looking really nice!

PiQ is available now from your classy magazine retailer of choice. (If you can't find it on the newsstand, try a book store.) It will be on sale through May 21. Rabid Sam & Max collectors (you know who you are) -- don't miss out!

Okay, so here's a question... if we were to carry a small quantity of these in the store for people who can't find the magazine at retail, how many of you would buy it from us?

This just in! Here are some of the stores that carry PiQ: Barnes and Noble, Borders, Waldenbooks, B. Dalton, Blockbuster, Blockbuster Franchise, Transworld, and Wal-Mart.

It would probably be to expensive, with the shipping and all, for me.

Unless you can save a copy for me 'til the Season 2 DVD hits the store, then we might be talking buisness =)

I would probably, but I think they used to sell NewtypeUSA at a shop in my town, so if this is a new version of that magazine, it might already be available to me. Too much stuff to buy, not enough money....heh.

Yes, PiQ is the new version of Newtype USA. So they more than likely will carry PiQ.

Anyway, if it was autographed by Telltale Staffers and/or Steve Purcell I would heavily consider buying it from you guys (depending on price) but if not I would say no. Mostly because it I have a copy already and it's pretty easy for me to buy off the stands.

Depends on the price. If you hold another contest, I'll definitely go for it. :D

I wouldn't buy it, but it might be a nice idea to use them as prizes in a contest or something, as has been suggested above.
