Hello CPG data gurus,
I've noticed quite a few issues with new comic book listing for this week (books released on 10/24).
- It's taken a considerably long time for new issues to appear. Image and IDW books just appeared late today (saturday).
- Most don't seem to have cover images yet.
- and the big one, I'm seeing lots of publication date errors.
All of the new books I've looked at show a December 2018 publication date. This is correct for new DC and Marvel books as their indicia dates are two months ahead. Most other publishers still use the actual publication month in their indicia, so they should say October 2018. I know this is definitely the case with Image and IDW titles I picked up this week.
Another odd thing I noticed: For the last few months when new books are listed the price has already been input, but the indicia date is blank. This week it has been the opposite.
Has there been an issue with a data upload, some kind of data corruption, or do you have a new underwear gnome as an intern and they just mucked it all up?
I have faith it will all be corrected, but I have not seen issues like this for a long time.
Cheers!
Jim

I think it has to be the underwear gnomes!!! there are a "few" covers updated now.
I have also noticed that the CONVENTION Variants are taking precedence to the weekly titles. I prefer it the other way.

Really??? do we not already know what a the new comic cover looks like?
Is not already on the web in other locations? what is the hurry here please?
Respectfully suggest additional patience.
I would rather the admins give precedence to provide information for Gold/Silver?Bronze and variants.
Regular issues are routine tasks. Again - what time crunch are we in?
If you are in real hurry - you can always be the one the add the image.
Just my opinion.
