A few days ago we
showed off a small, low-res piece of the front cover for the North American release of
Deadwood - The Complete 2nd Season. For a few weeks longer than that, we've been
reporting a tentative release date for this set of
May 23rd.
HBO has confirmed that date for us now, and a $99.98 SRP. They also provided better artwork that shows the full box...but it's still small. They're saving the hi-res art for the official announcement, which should be soon (it could even be later today, for all we know). Extras also aren't officially named yet, but we've
had the rundown since last November about what those are likely to be. Here's the new picture of the package, and HBO's description of the set:
Stake another claim in the Deadwood DVD gold mine! The Season 2 DVD release is timed to precede the new season on HBO, and is timed for Father's Day gift-giving.
1877. A new day is dawning in the Black Hills outlaw camp of Deadwood. For better or worse, times are changing, and the transformation from camp to town is imminent. Unsavory new arrivals - looking to cash in on the lucrative anarchy -- and a government of outsiders usher in an era of hard decisions and brutal power struggles among the camp's founders, all learning the hard way...fortune comes with a price.
