Captain America fans...#600 on sale today

[Doc Beechler (mod-MD)]

As the storyline leads into a BIG event on July 1st (which has been spoiled in NY newspapers)...Marvel has decided to give #600 a couple days head-start this week and allow comic shops to start selling it today...Monday.

Were all dealers sent their copies of this early, or are they simply allowed to sell their preview copies with Marvel's approval?

From what I understand, some dealers were/will be delivered copies today; others won't get them until Wednesday.

I don't know what the determiner is for who gets which.

The shipment is going out to comic shops today.

Ooo...seven seconds behind Alan!

And there's a spoilerific review (which I haven't read) up on BleedingCool.com, if you're into that kind of thing.

My LCS owner is opening at 11 today to sell his first, limited, batch of copies. I may just run by there at lunch.

I'm not going. This'll likely be at the top of my reading pile but I'm not going to make a special trip just to buy this issue. It can wait 'til Wednesday.

Out of curiosity, I emailed my LCS. They were supposed to receive it today but (as of noon PST) none had been delivered.

If you're in the Indianapolis area, check out the Downtown Comics site...they have #600 today, are selling all Cap stuff at 15% off for the next two days, and have Roger Stern signing the book on Wednesday.

I went to the store around 12:30, and the copies hadn't arrived yet. Of course, while I was there, the owner read the New York Daily News piece to me as he was composing an email to send out to his customers.
