WHAT’S ON THE SHELF, MAY 13TH – INDEPENDENT PUBLISHERS

What’s on the Shelf is built from distributor order forms and shipping date information, giving fans a heads-up on what may be landing at their local comic shops. As always, not every shop orders every title, variant, or edition, so if you’re hunting for a specific book, cover, or collectible, hit up your local comic shop owner they are the real-life NPCs with the secret inventory knowledge. WEPA!

PLEASE NOTE: Not all titles listed will arrive in every store. Items with release dates are not fully verified by distributors and are individually noted when needed. Some comics may have already arrived through Diamond Distribution, Lunar Distribution, Penguin Random House, or Manage Comics.
