Thanks all for the information, guess I'll have to be sticking memory card's
on my book shelve for the remainder of the comics then :(

I received an email from Marvel the other day, in response to a question
I'd sent them about Magician Master comic book hardback version, in it
they say that no release date has been set for Magician Master yet. I've
been trying to get hold of this for well over a year now, and the only
version I can find now which is due for release on January 18th 2012 is
the softback version, what happened to the hard back version? I just read
that it's due for digital release before being printed?
I was 100% positive that a hard backed version was released and that a few
on the list had brought a copy, I seem to remember it being discussed on
the list not long after the release, anybody out there have it or can
remember anything about this? as I'm finding it all very confusing to say
the least :(
Did it have the title Magician Master: the great one, at some point as I
could have sworn that I'd seen that.

As far as I know, Magician: Master was selected by Marvel to be one of their
100% original digital comics. The logic was the comic itself and the
hardcovers didn't do that well, but the e-book and soft trade paper did
well.
It's complicated. Marvel inherited me from DB Pro, well meaning but very
disorganized guys who managed to create problems in the retail channel that
Marvel inherited. They were far more able to turn the Anita Baker stuff
around, but they finally got some traction with my stuff. Moreover, the
e-book v. paper thing was just starting to happen when all this went down.
Best, R.E.F.
