Volume 23 Hardcover and Diamond Comics

Post by MikeM »

So according to Diamond comics, volume 23 was supposed to be released today. I was all excited to pick it up from my local comic shop after work, and he didn't get it in. He ordered it, Diamond just didn't ship it to him. The last time this happened was with volume 22 where Diamond kept telling him it was coming for months and then cancelled his order. Luckily I found a copy through B&N online.

Did anyone get their copy of Volume 23 from a local comic shop today?

My comic shop owner already called his Diamond rep and was told he should have it by next week, but to be honest, I'm not holding my breath. I'll give him a week and if he doesn't get it, Ill begin my search for it. But I tell you this, if he doesn't get it, Ill start getting my Usagi hardcovers somewhere else. Well, I guess I don't have a choice in that do I?

PS - For the record, I don't blame my comic shop. He is doing everything he can to help me, it's Diamond that keeps angering me.

I picked up my copy today which I had ordered through the local store and Diamond (#350 / 350) :)

I am not sure if it just arrived or if it came last week since I didn't make it in there last week to check.

Limited edition arrives!

Post by go »

Dear Readers,
Diamond delivered the Limited edition this week to Chico, California.
Thank you very much Sensei Sakai!.
The cover embossing is wonderful.
Diamond also told my local friendly comic book store owner that Diamond did not know why they have not yet shipped my copy of Beanworld 2 HB.
The story continues.....
Thank you all for the fun.
Best wishes to all!

For reasons such as this, is why I trust Stan to sell me my hardcovers :?

Hello MikeM,

I'm sorry to hear about your order of HC of V23 didn't arrive. That is a bummer.

I went to my Local Comic Book store today and they did have mine (177/350).

I also got a copy of the Beanworld 2 HC that I ordered before I picked one of from Larry at Comic Con. If diamond messed up, go, I can send you my extra copy.

Peace, maka

So i finally read the Mayumi arc story....well, well....
I just re read the UY sketchbook 4.

I don' remember well, was it Diana Schultz that decided of the end of bridges of tear ?

Stan, if Usagi had come back for Mayumi, would Mayumi had been a koroshi's killer like in the alternate ending of the "Killer" ? Have you planned the tragic ending since you started the arc ?

(I really like her girly attitude. I suppose this is why i like so much Kitsune :D )
