LATE: King In Black #5 Delay Now Delays Other Tie-In Comics
Is The King In Black like Civil War all over again. Remember when the main Civil War comic was later, really late, months late, and as a result, all the completed tie-in comics were also delayed by Marvel Comics so that they wouldn't be published before a certain issue of Civil War and spoiling the plot? Thankfully that was an example of an event raising sales on tie-in books by, in some cases, fivefold.
It's harder to do the same now. Thankfully The King In Black is only five issues long and it is just the fifth issue that is late, by a couple of weeks. Solicited for the 24th of March, The King In Black #5 has been delayed two weeks until the 7th of April.
