A number of comics issues have had their release dates pushed after a truck carrying the comics to a distribution center was involved in an accident Friday.

In a post to social media, IDW Publishing announced Friday that a truck carrying issues from four series to a distribution center experienced some sort of crash that damaged the shipment.

"A truck carrying several of our comics was involved in an accident while en route to distribution," the post reads. "Most importantly: no one was hurt. The comics, however, were not so lucky. They were pretty thoroughly decimated by the forest."
