So at the Dark Horse panel yesterday Carl Horn passed around a number of samples, including the Japanese volumes of Clover. Toward the end of the panel they were having trouble finding volume 4, and Anime on DVD notes in their panel report that the volume was never recovered.

That’s not cool, guys. If it was one of you, return it to the Dark Horse booth and they’ll accept it as a mistake. They need the book in order to get the Clover omnibus done in time!

Just heard back from Dark Horse’s PR guy regarding the Clover omnibus and received a “no comment,” so I guess we’ll just have to sit tight and see what happens.

Bloggers/detectives Chloe Ferguson and Kuri have spotted a listing on Amazon for an omnibus edition of CLAMP’s manga Clover, which– if the Amazon listing is correct –will be published by Dark Horse in December.

The big news here? Clover, a 4-volume unfinished CLAMP work, has been published in individual volumes by TOKYOPOP. A license grab, perhaps, or a joint work? CLAMP is publishing their new mangettes project with Dark Horse.

I have an e-mail out to Dark Horse asking for comment. If I hear anything worth posting, you’ll all be first to know. :)
