What happened to the Movie Prequel?

And looks like Escalation's gonna be late. (Color me not surprised...)

My comic shop sends out a 'Hai, this is what we'll have tomorrow!' list and the movie prequel is still on there. And I know for a fact they get their comics on Tuesday(today), so I'm guessing Ryan just accidentally missed it on the Diamond list.

EDIT: Whoops, today's Monday isn't it? But yeah, my point is still there.

Confirmed delayed. I'm guessing the ****-up is at Diamond's end. Call it a hunch...

Wasn't it planned to lead up to the movie's release? Maybe the movie will get bumped back to compensate.

Two words: Civil War. Very much in Diamond's interest to get that one out quickly.

I don't have any faith in Diamond; they can't even keep distribution lists on their own site current, they "lose" shipments on a regular basis (check out complaints from store owners who get shorted on prime stock because a truck's been sent to the wrong place on a particular week) and generally show all the organisational problems of a functional monopoly.

Eh, I guess you're right. After all, that would explain why I had to go to Golden Age in Vancouver for the last four months to get my comics, when the shop near me stopped getting them.

Still, I'm just gonna LOL if I walk into the shop tomorrow and find the prequel there.
