    More in IDW Leaves DIAMOND For RANDOM HOUSE In Bookstore Market

    I did not get how will it affect Transformers and other properties. Do they mean only trade paperback?

    It barely affects Transformers or anything else. All this is is that Random House will be shipping IDW's trades to bookstores rather than Diamond.

    Crap, the link is blocked at work.

    But if this will fix their delays, that'll fix a HUGE gripe I have with IDW.

    Still waiting for a set date on GI Joe HC Vol.5 (supposed May release) and the TF IDW Phase 2 Vol 4 (supposed August release). Those get pushed ahead a week, EVERY week.

    Thank you!

    Is this why my MTMTE Vol. 10 isn't here yet?

    It would be nice if delays could be sorted. It's fair enough when it's out of the distributors hands(port strike) but when important issues are being released out of order, I can't help but get a bit miffed.

    This is going to have nothing to do with single issues or their being delayed. This just affects paperbacks at bookstores.

    Ah ok. Oh well, delays and patience it is.
