DC Comics Move Release Day To Wednesday But Digital Is Still Tuesday
This week sees DC Comics shift the print release day of comic books from Tuesday back to Wednesday. Or does it?
Article Summary
- DC Comics moves print comic book release back to Wednesday, differing from 2020 change.
- Graphic novels and collections to keep their existing Tuesday release schedule.
- Digital versions release on Tuesday across regions; already live in Australia.
- American comic shops must wait nearly two days post-digital launch for print copies.
This week sees DC Comics shift the print release day of comic books from Tuesday which it moved to in 2020 after DC Comics left Diamond for Lunar, back to Wednesday. Collections and graphic novels will still be scheduled for Tuesdays, which is the general release day in bookstore distribution, but regular comic books will be back with Marvel and others off Wednesday release.
However it seems that no one told the digital side. As it seems that DC Comics titles will be published digitally at midnight in each territory. They already went live from Amazon.au four hours ago. Look, this came from Amazon.com.au if you use an Australian VPN.
