I thought this book was supposed to come out on 1 April. I don't see it for sale on Amazon or Midtowncomics.com. Anybody seen any sign of it out there?

It's not been released yet. Comiclist lists it's release date as TBD. This is pretty common with their TPB, and especially the HC books.

It's actually not common with a non-HC. I think this is the first date they've missed with a TPB. Amazon has it to be released July, 7th.

It's definitely not the first TPB to miss its shipping date, but you're right it isn't common. The Amazon release dates are almost always wrong, at least if you're trying to figure out when it will be released to the direct market.

VEI hasn't done a hardcover for anything less than 15 or so issues, right? Only ongoings* so far, I believe.

I think for some reason I heard the tpb is coming in a few more weeks. Someone asked about the single issues at the con and someone said next month? I may be mistaken because I was not paying close attention, but it will be be soon.

They'd probably do a hardcover after a second Dr Mirage mini-series eventually comes out.

I would love to see it in HC; maybe the first and second minis *may* get bundled together in the deluxe treatment? :hope:
VEI - I look forward to you one day publishing MORE than 9-10 books per month

Mine arrived from Amazon on Saturday.

Man, this sucker is loaded down with extras. The original pitch, costume designs, coloring and lettering explanations, and the missing Other Worlds Map that was supposed to be in the Plus Edition.
Good Morning, that's a nice tnetennba.
