I don't know this random website, is there any likelihood that the November date is accurate?

Sean Gaffney

That random website is Simon & Schuster, Viz's corporate parents.  So there's a high likelihood it's true.

I think I just experienced an eye-gasm after seeing that November 2012 date. :il_hahaha:

Man, I sure hope that's true.

Duomaxwe

It's what it should be.

There is no reasonable excuse for it taking a year for one volume to come out.

Carl Horn doesn't work for Viz anymore, though, so I can definitely see that prolonging things a bit.

Duomaxwe

I hope not.

I want it in November now, screw April.

Even though April 10th is actually my birthday and I thought it was funny it kept coming out on my birthday, I want it sooner.

He works for Dark Horse now, I think, but they still bring him on for Excel Saga.

I think, that part of Carl's move to Dark Horse from Viz may have been a contractual "I get to keep doing Excel Saga", but I could be wrong.  :)

Carl's main project there has been Oh My Goddess, which has just finished its reprints.  He still has CLAMP and Evangelion, of course... Christ, he's busy.

hmm... The date of that article goes back to '04. It wasn't a recent change. Not nearly as recent as I once thought.

MincyMatsu

We should really just ask Carl Himself some time about the details, if we're so interested :P

As long he's still involved though, that's cool..!
