Jim Brocius of Cosmic Comics in Las Vegas, Nevada saw retailer Dara Hannon’s comments about publishing schedules (see “Dara Hannon of Pyrimid Comics and Games on Marvel Publishing Schedule”) and is also frustrated with unpredictable releases:

 

Dara Hannon of Pyrimid Comics and Games is right on the money with his comments about the erratic publishing schedules of Marvel Comics (and let's be fair, ALL publishers).  The comics market will never reach its full potential (or anything near it) until all episodic comics have reliable schedules.  Sadly this is something that no publisher or creator seems interested in.  I can't tell the power company or the phone company that I'll have their money when the next issue of Ultimate Hulk vs. Wolverine comes out.  My obligations are monthly, and I need monthly books to meet them.  Being a business partner with people who seem to care not whether I succeed or fail due to their lackluster work ethics is frustrating in the extreme.
