DC Direct Arrivals Update

DC logo

December 6, 2005 - Can't remember which DC Direct products are due in at comic book stores soon? Here's the schedule for the next couple of weeks. These release dates are subject to change, sometimes the items are released later than originally planned, and sometimes earlier.

This schedule covers the current week, the next two weeks, and any items where a date change is already known: this update covers dates up to December 21.

Please scroll past this first updates section to see a longer schedule. Do not be alarmed if an item is on the second list but not on this top list - items will be moved to the top section as their scheduled dates get closer.

To Be Determined:
A reminder about the Series One Crisis on Infinite Earths action figures: DC is allowing retailers to return this series for full credit plus a shipping allowance. DC is producing an improved run of these figures, to be released in June 2006. If you are a consumer who bought any of these figures, you can return them to your retailer for a refund. (Actually, DC has said this to their retailers, so you can return them to any retailer, not just where you bought them: "Retailers are urged to alert their customers to this program and to accept returns from any customers, including those who may have purchased the figures from another retailer, through December 7.")

From time to time, the shipment dates from Diamond Comics Distributors to comic book stores will be changed (deliveries are usually on Wednesdays) due to various holidays: Diamond Holiday Shipping Schedule: July 2005 - January 2006.



The items listed above were included in this week's update from DC Direct (again, it covers a three-week range). Listed below are the original dates from the original solicitations/ announcements.
