I don't quite understand why the reprints take longer to get out than the originals did but apparently thats the word.


We should also remember that they are not actually reprints of the HCs, they are new products in their own right. Considering the improvements to linework and colouring quality seen on the SC releases. Granted that extra work should reduce the further we get.
While this is true, the SCs are a refinement of what has been already done while the HCs were working from scratch. Still work but less work, I would think, than restoring an issue from the ground up.
