Most CDN pubs are locking it at a 20% markup when the real-life difference is a little under 10%, so that's annoying. We totally ignore the Canadian printed price from U.S. pubs, it's so far out of whack. I've got GOTHAM CENTRAL HC 2 in front of me, and the thing is $30 U.S., and $38 CDN. At the standard mark-up it should only be $36, but at the real markup it should be $33. Thieves. Anyway, At Least I've Got Comics Today. :p ;) - Christopher Yeah, the CDN cover price is just an utter disaster on every level.

Are you still getting cheated on cover price, at least? With effective dollar parity it would obviously seem fair to charge the same figure on both sides of the border, but no one's actually doing so, are they? Don't strip away our last consolation. ;-) Darn Canadians and your new comics a day before us.
