The first two monthly issues of Jennie Breeden's The Devil's Panties have been solicited, and they did meet their minimum order.

As of this moment, Diamond is still carrying the book.

However, it has not yet met its minimum order for the third issue, and the deadline is this Friday.

This is typical of new books-- one of the disadvantages a new book is laboring under is the fact that retailers have to order the first three issues before they see the first issue. They tend to get increasingly conservative in their estimates, if they don't have a huge number of pre-orders for a book. If you want to see The Devil's Panties survive, even briefly, as a monthly title then you need to order a copy of issue #3 before Friday. My money is on Jennie's success, but it never hurts to keep people informed.
