We have received our first new shipment from Diamond! So we're working on getting back on track and resuming shipping. We are still operating with minimal staff to keep everyone safe and healthy, so it may take longer to get those shipments on their way. Like normal, once your subscription ships, you should receive that confirmation email, so please keep an eye out and thank you for your understanding!

Comics are coming back! Diamond Distribution has announced key dates for its gradual return to full service. New comics will begin shipping again on May 20, and we'll be back to processing and shipping your subscriptions accordingly that week. May 20 will see the return of releases from DC Comics, Image Comics, IDW Publishing, Boom Studios, Dynamite Entertainment, and other smaller publishers. We'll receive the first new releases from Marvel Comics the next week, on May 27. The monthly Previews catalog has skipped a month. If you're subscribed to Previews, the next edition of the catalog will come out on May 27, with volumes 380 and 381 combined into a single catalog. We expect that the comics industry will still take some time to return to a normal pace of new releases. As the comics that have been delayed by the COVID-19 pandemic receive new firm release dates, we'll continually update our site to keep the release schedule accurate.

We were unfortunately shorted our copies of the most recent Marvel Previews insert for the Previews catalog. Subscriptions that have already shipped did include the Previews book and DC insert. When or if we receive replacements for the Marvel insert, we will include those in your next shipment for free to any subscriber that should have received one.

To our subscribers, Citing the disruption COVID-19 has wrought at all levels of our industry, from printing down to retail, Diamond Comics Distributors will suspend weekly shipments of new releases beginning with products scheduled for release on April 1. Because we do not anticipate adding issues to your pull in the immediate future, and because we may become subject to a shelter-in-place order that would prevent us from getting your books to you, we're planning to ship all active subscriptions in the next two weeks. We will begin this week with customers who would originally have been scheduled to ship and will continue into next week with everyone who has an open shipment in our syste,. We understand that many customers are under financial stress or may not be able to receive packages at their usual shipping address. If you need us to hold your shipment or redirect it to a new address, please reply and let us know. When distribution of new comics resumes, we will be ready to pull your books. AtomicEmpire.com will remain open for orders and for you to manage your subscriptions, adding and removing titles or specifying cover selections as you like. If you order items or back issues and select the "ship with subscription" option, we will hold them to ship when your subscription resumes, or we can send them out at your request if you email to let us know. For the time being, it appears we will continue to have access to Diamond's backlist of trades, graphic novels, and action figures, so those items will continue to ship on demand. We will write with updates as we have more information. In the meantime we wish safety and health for all our customers. We are grateful, always, for your business. Atomic Empire
