Your Vest Friend 15,470 Posted February 22, 2016 And now apparently the release dates are TBD. This stands for "Too Bad Dweebs" in this case. This applies to StH#279 & 280, and SU#83. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Moppsy 150 Posted February 22, 2016 Not all surprised really. Disappointed, but not surprised. I just hope it's nothing too dire. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ruki185 231 Posted February 22, 2016 I got a respond from ArchieComics regarding my Google Play order, which was cancelled last week (SU#83 and STH#279). (I only asked for STH#279 in that tweet, guess it's the same situation on SU#83) We'll just have to wait, I guess. Though I don't have a too good feeling about this since that Tweet from Penders today. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Panda 9,107 Posted February 23, 2016 269 may not be coming out physically tomorrow but it is coming out digitally (again)! Bet ya anything this is another oversight and they've fucked up twice with this issue now 8D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Your Vest Friend 15,470 Posted February 23, 2016 StH#269 came out in 2014. Methinks you're getting confused with StCO#269, which just came out. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arranos 174 Posted February 23, 2016 Honestly, this is getting stupid. Why are these delays happening? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Your Vest Friend 15,470 Posted February 23, 2016 Apparently printing problems. Although Ian isn't heavily involved in the process, his answer to a fan also suggests this. 2 Monkey Destruction Switch and goku262002 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Panda 9,107 Posted February 23, 2016 You know what'd he nice? If they could go ahead and delay New!Archie just once, to focus and on actually getting some of their other stuff out. 7 hours ago, Detective Panda said: 269 may not be coming out physically tomorrow but it is coming out digitally (again)!

Your Vest Friend 15,470 Posted February 23, 2016 Ah, you know Archie is taking the reboot Archie and running with it, damn the consequences. I don't think they'd even care at this point if they let SEGA withdraw the Sonic licence, the new Archie stuff already (partially) screwed up their multi-pronged media plan for Sonic Boom. 1 Salamander reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PC the Hedgehog 3,421 Posted February 23, 2016 Going back to speaking of digital comics, how does one "subscribe" to a comic title digitally? I'm especially curious because if you subscribe to the physical book, you save almost 50% off the cover price. Does digital have a similar deal? I'd rather not pay $3.99 an issue...

chaosjam 519 Posted February 24, 2016 Just a heads up, should be seeing some Archie Sonic news today. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well at least they're not making any implication that the comic's going in the bin. My guess is that they'll say it's next release will be Wednesday. Fingers crossed I'm right. 2 chaosjam and RobotnikHolmes reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

goku262002 4,547 Posted February 24, 2016 Great, cool. we needed classic backstory on the new/meshed universe anyways, unless this is gonna be totally separate? (which it shouldn't seeing as we follow the game's storyline now). But what about the current issues? y'know the stuff thats going to matter after this 1 shot is done, wheres the news on that Archie?! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sega DogTagz 3,789 Posted February 24, 2016 Man, Flynn isn't going to be satisfied until he pulls a Chris Senn. Thats yet another story he'll have to sit down and tackle. Can't complain too much though. Any news is good news at this point, and this is yet another tie in to the 25th anny celebration, so its nice to see all the companies involved tackling this sucker from all angles. Soooooo, chalk another one up for the "Generations 2" column and I'll be on my way. lol 1 Akessel92 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
