Full Tilt Boogie gets an exclusive limited edition hardcover, but Thistlebone and End Of Days don't?

You think that's bad - I'm still coming to terms with The Grudge-Father sequel!

Thistlebone is HC. It's (currently) wrongly listed as paperback on the 2000 AD store.

I'm just confused about why the Thistlebone collection is coming out after the new series has started. Wouldn't it make more sense for new readers if they could buy and read the previous stories?

I don't recall what the original schedule was nor if it's changed, but COVID buggered up the best laid plans of many publishers. Rebellion has moved a lot around as has Image. Marvel's distribution is, to put it mildly, shot. (Omnis aren't even making it to the UK, in some cases.) DC cancelled a load of stuff.

So I imagine, yes, ideally these things would align, but reality has got in the way.
