Yesterday saw the long-awaited release of the Wildstorm 25th Anniversary hardcover, thankfully in time for it not to be the 26th Anniversary cover. We'll be talking about it in depth on Bleeding Cool later today. But equally delayed it seems is the Absolute WildCATS By Jim Lee volume, which has slipped from its intended publication date on the 13th December, just before Christmas, to the 7th of March in 2018. Here is the original solicitation with the new cover.
