It's coming media mail so who knows when it will be here. :(

I'm curious why they still haven't shipped Walking Dead Vol.8 to me when it came out in June. :evil:


That's weird. I got mine last month.

Got my BoC from Heroes Corner yesterday.
My MOC BoC is still in the "Electronic Notification" stage.

My HR Box was small, but I everything was perfect. The single issues where all bagged and borded and were wrapped with the two trades in bubble wrap.
The rest of the box was filled with paper.
I like how they not only list what is included in the box but also what's on order and when it's scheduled to be released.

here's what I got:

Item Name
MARVEL ADVENTURES HULK #13
AMBUSH BUG YEAR NONE #1 (OF 6)
FINAL CRISIS ROGUES REVENGE #1 (OF 3)
JUSTICE SOCIETY OF AMERICA ANNUAL #1
SECRET INVASION FRONT LINE #1 (OF 5) SI
FINAL CRISIS REQUIEM #1
CRIMINAL TP VOL 03 DEAD AND DYING
BATMAN SUPERMAN WONDER WOMAN TRINITY TP
IMAGE MONSTER PILE UP #1

I'm hoping it's just a screw up on their part and it is in my BOC this month.

Otherwise, me and Michael are going to have some words. :x

Was it listed on the invoice that came last month (when Amlah got his)?
Also, did you check your past orders? That'll tell you if they think it's been shipped.

Yeah I did that and it's not listed on any of my invoices and on the website it's still listed as an outstanding item.

Hmmm...
It should be okay then. If you're really anxious to read it, you might want to drop them an email just to make sure they'll be getting it soon.
Once with Westfield, the first trade collection of Bone didn't ship when it was supposed to. When it did arrive a month or two later I found out why;
They were waiting for Jeff Smith to sign all the copies.
That was a pretty sweet surprise.

Got my box from DCBS Friday or Saturday (I was out of town and it was there last night when I got home). It had everything I ordered in great shape, plus a couple of extra goodies. The Image Monster Pile-Up was an August solicit, but apparantly shipped early, so they added that in and they threw in a copy of the "The Stand" sketchbook, most likely because I get the Dark Tower books.

Good to know, I'm looking forward to it.

To give you an idea of how far behind I am, I'm currently reading "Justice"

My mail order guy is the bomb, I tell you. He only mails out once a month, but my package includes everything up until last week's issues. I think he gets Wednesday's new comics on the Thursday...

Is he in Europe?
Would it be cheaper to find someplace in the States and have 'em ship directly to you?
I imagine that'd take longer, though.
