⚠️ Buyer Beware: it is unclear how these 2nd printings that were supposed to be distributed
The following statement was issued on Skottie Young's Substack:
"Well dang it. Unfortunately we need to cancel our 2nd printing. The entire print run was just not up to our standards and expectations. We’ve made the decision not to reprint due to the wacky, fun goals we have to close out 2024 and we just don’t want to interrupt those. Thanks for your understanding! This is an incredible storyline and book and we are so happy to be a part of it."
