Where to buy comics in the UK?

[Ukbondraider]

Hi, anyone know where I can get Street Fighter Comics in the UK namely:

#1, #3, #13, #14 and Volume 2 Trade Paper.

Just want to complete the whole collection.

Thanks

Well #1 and 3 are mostly an eBay job now or you can try www.herofix.com which is a Canadian site but if you contact the dudes you don't have to use PayPal, otherwise its eBay. Getting them back-tracked in the UK is bound to be difficult.

#13 and #14 aren't out yet and neither is the volume 2 TPB, I use www.comiccave.co.uk Steet Fighter and DarkStalkers however are not on there site, you have to contact them to order the comics.

You're going to have to be very lucky to get them...

Best link I can give you right now is http://www.comics-international.com/Directory/comics_shops_uk.html Which you probably already know of.

Other then that.. well.. http://cyberstore.decepticon-matrix.com/morecomicsstreetfighter.html# but it is American so import charges and all.

Good luck man.

I'm still hoping some comic stores nearby will have Darkstalkers 2 by the time I get there.

not sure were your at but maybe you should try your local or closest forbidden planet, they actually get stuff in if you ask thats were i get my newtype and metal gear comics from.

Yes Forbidden Planet is another choice, however in my experience (with power foil covers atleast) they are the most expensive choice, £6.99, I manage to get them for £5.something lol. You're still not going to be able to get back issues there btw, they tend to sell out on day 1.

You know...

In Forbidden Planet I got two Street Fighter comics for £3.50. That was in Nottingham. And they regualarly sell the comics for £2.50-£3.50 each.

How did you manage that? :wow:
Dumb employees, mates or yourself working there or sale? Lol.

I honestly have no idea. My guess is some not very well advertised sale was on because on the same day I managed to get 12 manga books, normally at £6.99-£7.50 each, for under £50. Or maybe they just liked me? Either way it was a good day.

Unforanty I spent all my money and then saw the Street Fighter art book. Though I did notice forbidden Planet was selling it for £34 while a comic store above Gamestation was selling it for £22.

Shows you it pays to shop around.

£34? O_o The Forbidden Planet in Glasgow is selling Eternal Challenge for £22.

Damn man Forbidden Planet is just totally screwed up lol.

I get mine from a shop in meadowhall in sheffield.

any1 know were i could find MGS issue 3? my forbidden planet were pretty hopeless.

[nortlee]

Usually Forbidden Planet are pretty good for thoseI though, Comic Cave in the link above can get them if you contact the site I know that much. I order mine from there.

i'll try not to fall behind nxt time as back issues are a pain.
