oh, I totally agree, but how many did you manage to snag.
One of each cover - although I could have bought as many as I wanted (of the standard cover anyway). It's not very common at all for Forbidden Planet in London to be cleaned out of any book on the day of release - not a big one like this anyway. There were at least a couple of hundred on the shelves when I finally got there last Friday.
Ok, I was a little worried you were one of those joining the ranks of the unsullied, glad to hear you picked up a few.
As for the comment that the book was soon to become unreadable, I don't get that comment. There are Digital prints, both legal and illegal, the TPBs which collect a few volumes of the book, heck, if it's popular enough, a fan made motion comic on youtube. INACCESSIBLE would be the least of my concerns when it comes to readers.
I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're being serious: I was talking about this thread becoming unreadable, not the book.
sorry, misunderstood that comment. But I also have no problem with the direction of the thread, it's always so during the speculative phase that chatter would focus on value and numbers. Give them time to divest themselves of their copies and for those copies to filter to the ranks of the readers and collectors, than we might have a more substantive thread not focused on speculation but rather more on the story.
