The good news is, with books shipping last Thursday because of Thanksgiving, there was only a 6-day wait before this week's new releases. The unfortunate part of the news is that a customs delay has delayed the West Coast's delivery of the books with an asterisk after the title until December 16:
Angel: A Hole in the World #1*
The Art of Ditko
Beyond the Wall #2
G.I. Joe: Snake Eyes #3*
G.I. Joe: Classics Vol. 6 TPB*
Ghostbusters Holiday Special: Past, Present and Future*
Jon Sable, Freelance: Ashes of Eden #3*
Legion: Prophets #4*
Legion: Prophets TPB*
Star Trek Spotlight: Cardassians*
Transformers #2*
*If you missed the note above, these titles will be delayed until December 16 on the west coast only.

Transformers #2 wasn't on the shipping list for Midtown Comics or for Graham Crackers, so it looks like the east and midwest were also affected. Transformers #2 wasn't on Diamonds preliminary list for the 16th, either. :(
It might not be on Midtown or GC's list for this week--sometimes Diamond's lists aren't accurate the week before when it comes to our books--but they'll definitely have the comic this Wednesday.
When does/did the 2nd printing of Transformers #1 hit the shelves?
The 2nd printing is out on December 2nd. Which was days ago. LOL. Ryall, what's up with the bot's speech bubbles? They're round an normal like the human ones. Why?
"NO ONE has a copy of the 2nd printing--my comic shop is still waiting, and no online retailer has it either."
Exactly. I checked all the online stores also, and came up empty. Then I went to the closest store to where I live this past weekend and they didn't have it, either. I had to ask the clerk to put in an order for me. When he checked he was surprised they didn't get any copies because it said it shipped on the 2nd. So, he placed an order for me.

Hey Chris,
I just checked my pullbox for this week from the shop I order online from in Chicago...I didn't receive TF #2. :(

Well, for anyone looking for the 2nd printing of TF #1, here is the first online store I've seen with it in stock. It arrived this week.

But still no #2.

No #2 here in Connecticut.
I just got my copy of #1 today, so it looks like the second printing has *finally* appeared. But now my comic shop doesn't have #2 (I'm on the east coast, so it should be here).
Chris, why is the distribution for this series so fudged up?? It shouldn't be this hard to buy a comic. :(
All IDW books arrived safely on Tusday to my local comics shop in Tel-Aviv :)
