This enforced jump to trade paperback/higher prices seems to be universal. It seems to have introduced another minimum 12 month period in the time needed to wait for a MMPB. Maybe the publishing industry is feeling the pinch and they need the extra money, but I'm just feeling their greed and keeping a tighter grip on my wallet. Shenanigans is what I say.
