Too fast, too furious? Also at ICv2.com, retailer Gabriel Habman questions the speed with which Marvel is releasing collected editions:

"Is anyone else disturbed by the fact that the new Marvel Age Spider-Man Digest, which just shipped today, contains issues 1-4 of this new series when issues 3 and 4 haven't even shipped yet?

"Now, don't get me wrong, I love the fact that Marvel is publishing these formats, especially for these titles, as I am positive that I will be able to successfully market them to younger readers. However, unless Marvel has plans to make issues 3 and 4 of the periodical format returnable, I guarantee you that I'll cut my orders completely (except for box customers) on both Marvel Age: Spider-Man AND Marvel Age: Fantastic Four."
