So do we know when Cla$$war is coming out yet in the U.S, definitively? Is it the 15th or the 22nd?

I'm very anxious to order it, but Amazon is charging full price while the site I normally get trades (instocktrades.com) said they'd have it for $17.49, but they only list stuff when they have it, so I can't order it yet.

OK, official word from UK is that the shipment has been received and "should hit stores this week, or today actually". If anybody on the ground can confirm, that would be much appreciated.

Chris said...

Is that the case for the U.S as well?

com.x said...

Yep, that's the info relating to the U.S. shipment.
The UK received their stock two weeks ago.

I called my local comic shop. They didn't get it, and they normally get EVERYTHING (Oxford Comics in Atlanta, GA). Amazon went from pre-order to out of stock like that, and I can't find a single online retailer that even lists it, let alone has it in stock.

Where is this damn thing? :(

Weird - have Oxford ordered any copies?
Strange about Amazon too - we just sent them a shipment of Cla$$war and Razorjack yesterday!

We've also sent shipments to Haven and Things From Another World (check out the link on our "Stuff We Like" section for their info).

In all honesty, I don't know if they ordered any copies. I'd be shocked if they didn't, because their stock is absurd. I've never had anything not show up there, although on very rare occasions I have seen them sell out.

As for Amazon, I'm assuming they sold out, since it went from pre-order to out of stock. My guess is they got their batch and had more pre-orders than they had, so it went to out of stock.

I e-mailed instocktrades.com/dcbservice.com, which is where I order everything from, and they don't have it. TFAW is still showing as a pre-order. Midtowncomics.com doesn't have search results for classwar or cla$$war.

Well, TFAW should have their stock now. Their site says April 15th. It's now 16th, so even if you buy on pre-order button, you'll get it very soon. It may be that they hadn't updated their site info yet. We'll check with them.

I've also spoken with Reedcomics.com. They have stock and will ship to the U.S. and have a wide variety of payment options.

I've added the links in our Store section to the right of the updates.
