The Aptly Named Castle Waiting
Whatever happened to
CASTLE
WAITING: THE LUCKY ROAD? Dark Horse solicited it back in
January
but it never came out. Not only that, but it no longer appears on
Dark Horse's website. I did a cursory Google search but I didn't
see anything about it being cancelled. And I know I'm not
imagining the book being solicited because Johanna Draper Carlson
mentioned it in her
Previews
Review for that month, too. This isn't the first book I've
pre-ordered from Dark Horse that never showed up, either. I was
looking forward to
Club 9 Volume 3 (listed on
Amazon
as "
CURRENTLY NOT AVAILABLE")
but that book has
vanished
from Dark Horse's website as well. With
Club 9
(which is still being serialized in
Super
Manga Blast!) I'd guessed that Dark Horse -- after their
purchase
of Studio Proteus -- was planning on retooling the series in an
unflipped format, but I have no idea why
Castle Waiting
has been delayed/removed from the schedule. Anyone heard
anything? And what does this mean for the "new, ongoing
Castle
Waiting series" that the Dark Horse trade supposedly heralded?
