Hey Everyone,
It appears that UDON has Cancelled the Street Fighter Chun Li and Ken Lithos. The cancellation notice was on my latest invoice. I am hoping that Udon addresses this shortly, so that we can find out whether or not these will be released at a later time.

I didn’t order these from Rupps World but I always wondered what happened to the lithos, I had heard that they were due for release last May, so I had assumed that they were no longer going into production.
Cheers for the announcement Chris.
Thanks Chris,
By the way, if you are the owner of RuppsWorld then I would like to ask you if you are going to bring more copies of Street Fighter issues #7 to # 13?
I am asking because most of them are out of stock.
The orders on the lithos are horribly low. therefore, we cannot even start a print run on them. We have no other choice but to cancel it.
You heard it here folks,
If you want lithos in the future, go to your store and bug them to order lots of them!
Hello Hunter,
I am working on restocking all SF comics, especially the #0-6 issues. Most of the issues from #7 on up are in stock, and the couple that aren’t will be back in stock later this week. #13A & B will be available Wednesday morning.

Actually it’s too late for that, once UDON cancels a product no new orders can be placed. So UDON will first have to re-solicit them in an upcoming issue of Previews Catalog. So if UDON does re-solicit them, then bug your local retailer to order them by placing an order for the lithos the month that they are offered in the catalog.

That’s what I meant. If there are lithos solicited in the future, customers should tell their retailers that they want lots of them.
what did the lithos look like??
The Jo Chen front covers of #1-2 so far I beleive.
I feel kind of dumb asking, but what is the purpose of a litho? I have heard of them but am not entirely sure as to what they are and what makes them so cool. For example, why would I want to buy a litho with art from the cover of a foil I already have? Are they superior in quality? What are they printed on? Are they hand painted?

Lithos are basically posters, but better quality.
Damn… now i think i might want one…
Udon, at least consider doing some for the Darkstalkers, I wouldlove to have lithos of the Joe Mad foils!
*pretty please??"
Lithos for issue 1 & 2 would be cool. But if you really wantem to sell, why not use some new art. I know I would buy it just for that.
