Plus Amazon is fulfilling these orders in a seemingly random order.

Perhaps each recipient has three weeks to look it over before it is picked up and makes its journey to the next fan, get readin' B.

At least his book still has sharp corners. That's what he would have wanted most.

It would probably arrive sooner than the one I ordered 42 months ago.

Not quite done reading it yet, but a couple of things I learned.
Spoiler: show
- The death girl was more or less invented by Ed. He had edited together shots of Spawn's wife with that strobe effect on his AVID machine.
- Ed specifically requested the girl running through the field and stepping on the ant hill. He made them cut surfers in the ocean with dolphins.
- The cricket chip at the end, which I didn't even know existed, was a requirement from Ed, a message about Earth living on after humans kill themselves off. MTV didn't want it b/c "they don't do 1 second of black screen for anyone," but Kelly Curtis got them to relent, and the video always aired with a second of black and a cricket chirp at the end.
- Todd McFarlane came up with the scene of Death feeding a demon dog a can of humans. He doesn't know what made him think of it, or what it even means.
- Censored by MTV: Swastikas had to be changed to pseudo SS logos. A scene with a heroin needle going into a girl's foot was cut. A Nike symbol on the Vietnam bomber had to be changed to a generic symbol.

Very little reason to believe it's going to arrive before yours. It's just a third party seller.
