And since the orders are placed about 2-3 months in advance, if they do start 
with diamond, you'll be at least 2 months behind.  (For example, I ordered 
Tough Cookies about 2 months ago, it comes out this month.  Same for the 
comics and all.

Good luck finding a place to get them.  Luckily I had a lot of pull with my 
comic shop (read: I spend too much money) and there are a couple of us into 
anime...
