OK first up, NO SPOILERS PLEASE!!!! I understand there were problems with the release of this issue, and today I went to my local comic store and they told me not only did they not have it, but that its not out anywhere, even in the US! I told him there were folks on the internet who say they've got it (namely the lovely people on here) and he just said "they're lying"  He said he simply didnt know when it'd be out, so then I rang another comic shop, and they told me it won't be out till next week now over here!!! D'OH! So has anyone else found this? Again, no spoilers for the issue please! |

There was a shortage at the warehouse the comics get made or shipped to, something like that, so the Eastern part of the USA didn't get as many as they should of, maybe this applys to the UK aswell. One comic shop near me didn't get any at all and they wont get it till next week.

I feel naughty for saying this, but there are ways around the delay. Normally I would never do such a thing, but I've already waited 5 whole weeks for this, I ain't waiting any more
I've just read #4, good stuff
But I will definitely get the physical comic when it's out over here

I am from Scotland, Edinburgh and got the bus into town to get it from Forbidden Planet and they said it won't be out until next week and the other comic book shop said two weeks. Oh! There's another comic shop in Edinburgh? Sorry, the issue at hand! I thought it was odd that I couldn't find it today. I spent about ten minutes rifling through this week's new arrivals looking for it, the girl in the shop was standing by the shelf with a big pile of comics in her hand waiting to put them out. I hope she hates me. It's a shame, but it'll keep 'til next week, and at least I had the penultimate Whedon Runaways to placate me. MB x |

Yeah its just 5 minutes away from Forbidden Planet, it is round the corner from The Greyfriars Bobby statue (the wee dog) you an get the number two bus or the thirty five.     I loved that movie (about the wee dog)...but I digress. My comic supplier was shortshipped as well. So now it makes sense if there was some sort of problem in the supply to start with. further with the digressing.....I also think it is way cool that we have so many forum members from other countries. Now when I read posts by Giant Michael and WhedonFan I will add the lovely scotish lilt in my head. Airgirl - can you give me an idea of what your accent is? use a movie actress/actor example. |

Cool. I was in Belfast at the weekend, and they didn't have it there either.
But I'll give my store a ring tomorrow and hopefully pick it up then

Did anyone in Edinburgh manage to get the coloured vampire Gunn cover I know there is one in black and white but it looks terrible. How about the fact the Forbidden Planet always gets in the crp covers they never get the cool/rare ones.
