Or, in other words, when can we expect volume 26?

I am not sure if Stan was referring to the Dark Horse editions, or maybe one of the foreign editions, but he did make an enigmatic comment about plans for a second edition being added to the release schedule for either this or next year.
I need to go find the post so I can accurately quote the actual comment.....

just wanted to back you up on this one, steve...I too recall stan's statement and in my memory he was talking about a conversation he had with editor diana schutz about putting out two volumes a year again instead of the current rythm of releasing one...

This is the comment that I was trying to remember.....

The first time I had read this, I think I misunderstood the term "package" used by Google, thinking that it referred to "collected edition" instead of the French publisher Paquet. Reading Google translations is an iffy job.

We actually hope to publish 3 new collections in 2012 and 2013.
The explanation for why should be posted in a week or so.

Is that three volumes per year, or three volumes over a two year period?
Either way, it sure sounds like great news!

That's three volumes over a two year period.
