For those who haven’t heard, there’s been massive issues with shipping in the United States due to a labor dispute that has slowed down, and at times shut down, the Long Beach, CA ports. The problems there have affected companies who rely on it to receive material from around the world. Wizkids and Fantasy Flight Games have both seen delays to their releases due to the issue. A strike in December delayed comics from IDW Publishing, and it looks like it’s happening again.

IDW has announced that the titles that were to arrive on February 18 won’t be making it. In an announcement they said:

Due to the ongoing problems at West coast ports, our normal shipping procedures have been completely interrupted, causing unpredictable delays. Regrettably, this has resulted in all our books planned for release on 2/18 to be delayed. We’ve looked at every possible scenario to prevent this, but the situation is completely beyond our control. We are taking steps to improve this for the immediate future, but the books and products that are currently on the water cannot be re-directed. We will be updating our weekly releases and keeping you informed as the situation works toward a resolution. We understand this is not an ideal situation, and apologize for any inconvenience this causes, and look forward to things getting back to normal in ensuing weeks.

To keep things fair, they will also be delaying their digital releases that week as well.

With all the delays, which costs publishers money, you wonder if it’s finally at a point it might be cheaper to print domestically?
