Just in the proverbial nick of time, too. Something like 7:58 PM Eastern time. I had Black Chamber and The Unbeatable Squirrel Girl Vol. 8: My Best Friend’s Squirrel coming in the same shipment, and I would not have been amused if they had come actually late. I was not amused that they didn’t show up this morning, honestly. …God, we are all so spoiled by modern society, aren’t we? “How DARE they take until evening to get a book delivered to my door the day it was published! How DARE they, given the discounted price of the book and the shipping I didn’t have to pay!” It was very silly of me to be annoyed, honestly. I’ve got it good, after all.
Shush.
I’m old enough to remember waiting eight to ten weeks for something from the back of a comic book.

I’m pretty sure it took twelve.
