Now, let's guess and say that Wednesday 26 will see the comics hit the shelves. Right? Right? Oh damn Customs and their ways with tracking cargo and shipments. Of all the things to burden customers of imported goods outside those jeans that rip on account of having single stitching.

Anyway, lo and behold, it would appear that Kabuki #5 is set for this week. When was the last time the issue hit the stands outside of that collection and teaser for The Art of David Mack?

Kabuki appears now to be more about the art and the weird and twisted interconnections it has with the text of the story against the text on the page. There are others who also love this.

 

Two weeks running with a block on the end of customs. Then a week's shipment that made it through turning out on the weekend of Supanova. Of course, those hitting the expo looking for those exclusive Aspen covers were disappointed. Customs problem again. And so another week. That's three weeks in four with a problem at Customs end.

Dropping in with the comics week to week like this and seeing nothing new helps those needing time to catch up on all the many comics they've already bought but failed to allot the proper time for. Doesn't help then when the backlog is flushed through with a coffee enema and instead of the four or five titles, it balloons into numbers over a dozen.
