For all you DCBS users, you should know that their general manager has just left the company. He was the single reason they had such good inventory control and with his departure I expect things to begin to slide.

Glenn Danzig posted:Might be just a hair bit premature to say things like that. I have already gotten my shipping notification for this months shipment which is earlier than normal. Honestly I expect IST to slide more than DCBS. IST utilizes their store inventory which he was responsible for. With him gone their already sorry employees will almost certainly let things go.

Jeremys Iron posted:I have a Marvel shelf in ordered alphabetically by title - so Captain America then Captain Britain etc. The book took years to finally sell out. It's far more likely they'll do a second volume rather than a reprint since most of the contents of the first one are available in smaller books.

99 CENTS AMIGO posted:Where'd you find Vol 1 for that cheap? Any ebay auctions I see are from England, and once I convert the pounds and account for shipping, I might as well buy Rhyno's copy from his Amazon marketplace. You're overseas? My Amazon account isn't set up to sell overseas but if you make a fair offer I could be convinced to sell it outside of there.

I've been in NYC for the last few days on vacation and today we went to Time Machine comics and what do I find? Spirit Archives volume 14! Still shrink wrapped and it was on their 50% off shelf so I snagged it for $25! I love this town!

wildlele posted:DC was going to get slammed either way on this but really guys? Do you want a four issue hardcover just so you can have something sooner? I don't see Action comics as being a bad example, it will collect eight issues making it a nice size and four months after issue eight isn't fantastic but no need to slam on DC. You have to remember these aren't iPhone 4Ss, they aren't air freighting them. They are printed in China (usually) and shipped over on boat. The bulk of DC's hardcovers are printed in Canada and Iowa.

wildlele posted:Beats me then, 4 months after the final issue isn't the worst thing in the world. Either bind your own or suck it up. It's bothersome because Flashpoint was released so quickly and Marvel's trades are released within what, a month of the end of the arc? And I don't want shoddy bound books, I want real trades that flow with the rest of my bookshelf.

d00gZ posted:The basic plot was that Kang had been controlling Tony Stark for years so the Avengers had to go back in time and recruit a teenage Tony Stark to fight modern-day Tony and Kang. The end result was teenage Tony Stark joining the Avengers. And that's where Teen Tony came from! And he was hand-waved away by using Franklin Richards powers. What a terrible continuity fix.
