Hey folks!
I had to quarantine due to a medical condition so I haven't kept up with my books. I was buying all the x-books up until that point but have been living under a rock until just now. So, how many issues have I missed? A friend said that Marvel stopped publishing for a bit due to the pandemic. Is this true?
Anyway, any help you can offer is appreciated.
Thanks,
-Odd Rödney.
sometime near the end of March all comics stopped shipping, can't remember exactly when
new comics just started again last week
But for gods sake - call or go to your LCS and pick up your books, they need the support
He has a medical condition. He can't.
Anyways, like the previous poster stated. Shipping stop in March. You've only missed like 4 titles. Or just 1 depending on when your last comic book haul was.
Not knowing your area or what you've looked into, you could check with your local comic shop to see if they're doing any kind of shipping or delivery approach.
Alternately, you could see about if they have someone who can take materials out to the parking lot or street and if they have an online pay ability, then pay online and pop open the trunk for them to put your comics in for you. Then leave the comics in the trunk for however long is needed or you're comfortable with.
Just throwing out ideas. Ultimately what's best for your health matters most.
Did they finish X-Men vs. FF?
I'll be honest I cant remember exactly [I]when[/I] the last titles were put out before shipping stopped , but here are the issue numbers - might help you check off what you have/dont have:

Marauders #9
Excalibur #9

No new Giant-Sizes since Nightcrawler in late March
Hellions #1

[QUOTE=Master of Sound;4983658]Here are the full list of the X-Men comics for August. Noticeable is all remaining 3 X-Men [B]Empyre [/B]tie-inns will be released in August. Also the main Empyre title will bring out the final issue in August, as well as most other tie-inns of that crossover. (Though they are not listed below, as i just posted on X-Men titles. [B]X Of Swords[/B] will start in September.
[B]The Marvel Snapshot: X-Men[/B] (one shot) of Cyclops is missing, but that might be released in September. I am worried about something else that should not to go unnoticed; new titles [B]Children of the Atom[/B] and [B]Juggernaut [/B]have not been in mentioned at all!

The point I’m making is that the OP’s store may not deliver. Let’s not turn this into a thread about what stores need to do to survive in a post-COVID world. We have other threads for that.
