2000 AD shipments to US clear backlog caused by Covid-19
23rd October 2020
It’s been a hell of a year (so far) but, after six difficult months, 2000 AD is looking to get the flow of Thrill-power across the Atlantic going again!
Covid wreaked havoc on the monthly shipments of 2000 AD and the Judge Dredd Megazine from the UK to the US, resulting in heavy delays, and many state-side retailers and readers asked whether we would be returning, when we’d never left – it was just taking the books longer than we’d hoped to reach them.
As shipments begin again, Rebellion is keen to ensure stores are not swamped with books and comics at a time when they’re still making their way through some pretty choppy waters.
Working with Diamond Comics Distribution, we have put together a new schedule of bi-weekly release dates for the backlog, so that our dedicated fans will be caught up by the new year and stores won’t be left holding stock they can’t shift. The dates and details are listed below.
To our many American fans we say, hold tight. We’ve missed you and we’re sorry it’s taken so long for these books to reach your shores. We thank you for your infinite patience. Rest assured – 2000 AD is on its way!
To our retailer friends – thank you also for your patience. Things aren’t easy and we want to help you any way we can.
