Australian Officials Demand Sticker Put On Erotic Comics Survey Book

imageAccording to a post made by the increasingly indispensable Steve Holland, Australian customs officials have asked that the first book book in Tim Pilcher's Erotic Comics: A Graphic History soon-to-be series (a second volume is due in January) carry a special sticker with a big, fat "M" on it or not be sold in Australia. I had to blink a bit and double-check, but despite all the information about the second volume due to arrive in early 2009, the post says it's the first one that was stopped. This action would, of course, put the second one's ability to gain free entry into that market in doubt.
