It's nearly March and Awake! No.3 has still not appeared on JW.org. Has it come out in paper form, or has something gone wrong? -

Usually the stuff comes out months in advance. It appears they do things things on the fly. -

If she's a month late, maybe she's pregnant? The long awaited birth of the Awaketower which will contain fascinating accounts of how today's animals and plants are actually fulfilling "ancient bible prophecy".
just saying!

Sorry guys, I obviously missed all this when they announced they were numbering them rather than putting a date on them. So their public announcing tools have gone from bi-weekly to bi-monthly, and from 32 pages to 16, that’s a drop from 128 pages a month to just 16 – nearly 90%. And when you consider the lack of substance to these magazines these days, this shrinkage is probably over 90%. Nat and Freddie must be turning in their graves.
If this were just down to cost, they could still produce 32 page bi-monthly magazines on line, with slimmed down hard copies once a month for their trolleys. Perhaps they just can’t think of anything to say. Or maybe the end really is just around the corner and they’re just winding down the witness work.

I've heard that too.
