Same thing happened to me.

I noticed that the weight was listed as 1 pound. I bet that's too low for my two copies...
they may have needed to cancel the shipment info if the weight was too low.

I logged into DCBS website and they show the books shipped, but no tracking number. :hm:

My LCS didn't get any in today.
Then again the owner couldn't remember if he actually placed my order in the first place. :!:

I think you are probably right with the weight issue, because I ordered two copies as well.

Hi Everyone - I do not post here often but I just wanted to say that I did receive my copy today via my local shop, so it did indeed come out.

The books are currently with the distributor. Diamond tends to be quicker at getting books to the East coast than the West coast. However, I am confident they will be in stores in next.
month?

Is this that dude from *VALIANT (1991-1996)* (yes, I am talking about the music channel and not the fictional comic book universe...............for MOTA, wherever you are.), that show was ridiculous.
HA! The show may be ridiculous, but Eric (Mystery) is an interesting guy, even if he is over the top in regard to theatrics. I've met him, and I've hung out briefly with J-Dawg, one of his "wings" from the first season. J-Dawg is a cool guy.
If you see him again, (of all things) could you tell him he missed a spot while shaving, right under his bottom lip???
