Hey guys.
Well, thinking about how wonderful The Most Dangerous Game was, I thought "Hey, Brian K Vaughan can write teenage superheroes well. Hmm, he created his own series, so surely, that should be pretty damn fine!" and picked up #1 and #2 of the new RUNAWAYS series. Indeed, I was much confused. See, I thought RUNAWAYS came out a couple of years back, and was expecting to root through back issue bins for it - but there was #2 right on the shelf. After reading both issues, I realised this was, essentially, a sequel. And that I was enjoying it.
So began the quest for the first volume.
I have managed to rack up every issue of the 18-issue series except for issues 1, 6, and 16.
I live in the UK, and so if you guys know any good mail-order companies (UK or otherwise), online, phone, or catalogue, can you please let me know? Indeed, if a sterling member of this forum wants to part with these issues, they too can let me know.
But... I am a wonderful chappie, and so, being this forum made manifest in man, I have decided, that here, in this thread, post the contact details or any place that sells back issue comics? Should someone need to find a back issue they need look no further than this thread. Should they need help, this forum is only one step away! No longer will the masses spend months on end at their local store, desperately seeking their missing bounty! BEHOLD THE HELPING YOU FIND COMICS THREAD! IT IS THIS LIGHTNING! IT IS THIS MADNESS!
www.whatevercomics.com (one of my local stores)
www.incognitocomics.co.uk (my other local store)
www.milehighcomics.com (never ordered from them)
www.hillcity-comics.com (they say they have it in stock, but don't)
www.mycomicsshop.com (too expensive)
and you can e-mail a great mail-order shop called "Forbidden Planet" at [email protected] or call them on (UK) 01621 877244. They'll send you a catalouge and they're cheap and they've got lots in stock. They're very accomadating. Normally, you place your order, you pay, they then send you what they have of that order, and refund what they don't. I kindly asked them if I could order issues not on the catalogue (as well as those on the catalogue) and tell me if they have them. Not only did they do this, but they had everything except, well, the three issues mentioned above. Cheap, efficient, and accomodating.
Anymore places, please post 'em here with at least one little sentence on them so we know a little bit about them.
Cheers,
Bass
