Bleeding Cool first tell you thatBlack Kiss 2#1 byHoward Chaykinwas blend to be moresexually denotative than many had previously reckon , then that ithad been obligate by UK Customs , while Diamond UKnegotiated a sack the week after , with a note to retailers prompt them of the adult nature of certain scenes in the comic Word of God . We also reported on the book being release the next week , where it directly sold out from most mirthful stores . A 2d print was eject and was on the way .
Not any more . Nor any other issue of the serial publication .
The following letter of the alphabet has been sent by Diamond UK to British comic retailers and report exclusively here ;
retailer will be aware that the first issue of Howard Chaykin ’s Black Kiss II was rather explicit compared to other comics distributed by Diamond UK . We at Diamond have now had the opportunity to review the 2nd issue and the explicitness has not diminished at all ! In fact there are vista depicted which may precipitate foul of UK Customs ' regulations on the importing of indecent and obscene textile . Consequently Diamond has contract the decisiveness not to spread any further issues of Black Kiss II in the UK .
Had Diamond UK go along to import this championship and encountered problem with Customs , it could have had a knocking - on effect on the timely distribution of all title in the UK . A situation wanted by no one .
All order for Black Kiss II # 2 along with Black Kiss II # 1 , have been cancelled by Diamond UK . Black Kiss II # 1 will be made returnable at a later date . Please look out for details in Discussions .
retail merchant wish to read more on Customs ' regulationsshould contain the HMRC internet site :
Black Kiss 2is issue by Image Comics , who have an exclusive distribution deal with Diamond , so they are unable to sell it to another distributor , who might be willing to take a hazard . prototype trade wind paperbacks are also distributed in the UK through Diamond , so it is unbelievable the swop paperback will make it through that manner .
As a result , the gray mart will most likely take up the challenge , with sure US stores sub - distrubuting to UK store , against Diamond ’s guidelines but not against the law . So copies will be available , but later , and at great expense .
Or you could download it . Neither Diamond nor Customs would be capable to stop that …
