Superman today?

[jonsnow]

Did anyone else's store not get Superman in today? Mine did not and they did not explain what happened, so did the store screw up, or did DC?

[Blake Petit]

It could be neither. It could be the distributor. It happens sometimes -- a shop will get shorted or a shipment will be delayed. What area of the country do you live in?

I got Superman today at my comicshop without a problem. I think your comicshop messed up.

[jonsnow]

I am in NH.

[Blake Petit]

Hmm... That may have something to do with it. I've been told at my comic shop, at times when things are late, that for some reason shops further east may have their shipments delayed from time to time. (This has happened to me on books I'm supposed to review. I hate that.) Hopefully it'll be there for you next week.

while we are on the topic of late books, what is happening with adam strange #8. My shop still hasn't got it, was it delayed. I just hope it doesn't turn out like the superman mini where issue 3 never comes out and yet issue 4 does.

Did that what if comic titled Wha...Huh? written by BMB ever come out?

What Superman mini are you talking about?

KL -- "Wha--Huh?" never came out, but Marvel says that they're going to put it out later this year with another round of What If? specials.

The title alludes me, but it was a four issue mini in which a guy in the "real world" named Clark Kent gets the powers of Superman. My store never got issue 3 for some reason and then issue 4 comes out. It was fairly recent I think it happened just last year.

You're talking about Superman: Secret Identity. A fantastic series.

[Blake Petit]

Oh, "Secret Identity"? I think it was just your shop, dude, I got all four issues in the proper order. The TPB is available now, if I'm not mistaken.
