The B+W reprint cover is still available from Forbidden Planet if anyone still needs a copy and doesn't want to pay Ebay prices!

They had initially sold out of these, but obviously they have found some additional stock. Which is of course rather grand. Limited to 1,500 copies?

Pre-ordered mine the other week, so all going well, it'll be here in a day or two.

FP cardiff had quite a few on the shelf so I picked up one this morning.  Also stumbling across a copy of Luther Arkwright Arkeology in Trout Mark in the 10p bin!  Result!

Liking the paper stock for the Fabry B&W variant, more like card-reminds me of those old Hamlyn GN's.

Thanks for the heads up. Snagged me a copy. Only 2 left now unless they have more somewhere. The paper stock used really is lovely. I'd happily pay another quid a week for a regular prog printed like this.

Much prefer the paper, hope Tharg would consider that this was a trial of sorts?

Proud Lion in Cheltenham had quite a few copies this morning if anyone is still looking for sane prices on this one.

Mega-City Comics in Camden has five or six copies of the greyscale Glenn Fabry, as of about half an hour ago.

And my copy of the 2nd printing arrived today, so that's the set complete*
Hoping to get a good few signatures on these at Thought Bubble.

Which will mean I can take it - slightly - easier at the 40th bash.  ;)








*Unless Tharg is planning a 3rd printing....

In terms of sales you couldn't use a trial of a once-in-39-and-a-half-years sell-out run reprint as a trial...

Yes, cracking paper type used on the 2nd print. I'd have some more of that, as well please.

If anyone picks up a spare, Ill gladly buy it :)

Forbidden Planet still selling the B&W wraparound cover for under £5 including postage. Got mine from them yesterday and a beauty it is to!

I'd happily take a Fabry cover if anyone has any spares going!
