Really? Because both my #29 and my NYCC NECA box were very well taken care of in terms of shipping.

duh. Not EVERYTHING is damaged. To think so is just silly. But I have received merch from mirage on occasion that was in compromised condition.

For the comic I'd just like to see a bag & board.

I never said anything about the NYCC NECA box...

I think a bag and board in there would be a perfectly reasonable expectation.

But yeah, mine came in perfect condition.

Ditto. Especially for a $10 comic. I think its a no brainer that we are all collectors here and want the comic arriving in as mint a condition as possible. Another cheaper option is to simple place a cardboard piece in the envelope to prevent the postal people from folding it.

Laird said in one of the replies on his blog that only about 400 of the 1000 copies were sold.

Its a $10 comic, its not surprising that some people won't want to pay that much, especially when its up for free.

Yeah I got mine just recently. Didn't think I would be able to get it but they still had it. I was happy. Anyway my problem with getting things from Mirage isn't them but my post office. My appartments have tiny little cubbies for our mail. Instead of seeing that it is a big envelop that probably shouldn't be bent they fold it up and shove it in. Luckly nothing has been too damaged. As I am more worried about having it then the condition. I don't ever plan on selling it.

All signs I've seen point to very soon

I think it is time to re-read V4 because I forgot alot of the small details.

Anyone know if you can transfer the WOWIO files to an iPod Touch?

Get the AirSharing app - it's free, and is an awesome way to view files from your comp on your iphone/pod, including PDFs (which I believe is the wowio download format).

...though the iphone certainly isn't the best way to view a comic.

Much appreciated. I know it isn't ideal, but I don't want to waste ink on my laser jet printing them all out to read on the train everyday.

I am just re-reading for fun in anticipation for #30 and the final five.

Issue 29

It's been a long time! Issue 29 is now worth a lot of money, who knew! I just wondered does anyone know when issue 29 became in demand? Was it gradual or all of a sudden? Does anyone know why/what caused the trigger? I just wondered where it began. I remember reading comments that issue 29 was still available for purchase from Mirage up to 2010? Issue 29 has sort of become famous for being so crazy expensive.
