Usually a book like this gets the controversial press about its main characters. However, the third issue was due out this past Wednesday and no book in my reserve box. Of course, sadness entailed and i did what I usually do in cases like this. I checked Diamond for a delayed or changed delivery date. What I found was issues three and four were no long on Diamond's website and Ahoy had a different distribution system. Can anyone enlighten me as to what's going on as I am quite confused.

but I'm not sure if that's just for collected editions or not.
And League of Comic Geeks seems to show issue #3 coming out March 31st?

I saw the Simon and Schuster story as well and also was unsure as to whether it was collected editions or individual issues. The Diamond absence added to my confusion. The March 31 make a lot of sense, though and sound like the actual results. Thank you for your help, Major.

Thank you for your help, Major.[/QUOTE]You may want to double-check with your comic book shop about whether they'll still be getting [B][I]Second Coming: Only Begotten Son #3[/I][/B] or not if Diamond doesn't have it on its website. Don't know if Midtown or some other company may be doing distribution of the individual issues or not now, and I don't know if any Diamond orders would automatically rollover to a different distributor. Last time I went to my comic book shop (at the start of the month), they could enter things going through Diamond directly into their computer database, but any requests to add DC books to my hold list they had to write on a Post-It to add later.
