Colour me disappointed

[eliyes]

So I had my FLCS put X-MEN: MANIFEST DESTINY in my pull file as it came out and bought them when I had all the issues. I did this solely because I wanted to read the ongoing Iceman story in them. Very poorly done, by the way, but that's not my biggest bitch --

The installment in issue 4 of 5 ends with a big ole "TO BE CONCLUDED" on the last page. Makes sense, right? One issue to go, it pretty much has to be concluded there.

ENNNNT! Wrong! Issue 5 of 5 is one big story about Sinister acquiring Carnage's DNA despite the efforts of the X-Men and clone-not-clone Spiderman. Which is also TO BE CONCLUDED. In the last book.

What the fuck, Marvel? Did you print the wrong story inside that cover? eta: APPARENTLY SO! *facepalm*

Apparently, there was some sort of screw-up at the printers this time round, and they are reshipping the two books involved. I say, go to your FLCS, and complain -- you want your proper comic book, and shouldn't have to pay for it.

Marketing ploy. B|
