Whargarbargl! My local bookseller said that Ingram didn't even show Den V1 in stock when I visited them late last week! Did you order from the 'zon?

Got mine from Midtown Comics, ordered online or in-store pick up.

Yes, this is MIA on amazon in the UK except for 3rd parties who can fuck off at £50.

Midtown still has it in stock for under $30.

Not sure if it would make sense to ship it from the US to the UK, but for US residents it's an option.

Amazon US seems to be out of stock as well.

It's in stock at Amazon Canada, eh.

Thanks, I think I'll keep an eye out for imported copied as Midtown's international shipping policy is place the order, then we'll calculate shipping which will probably be eye watering and may get stung by customs. If I can get this one I think I'll pre order the others and stand a better chance. Hoping it's just early days and not everyone has it yet. I did see it on ebay the other day at a price that wasn't too bad, but still more than I wanted to pay.

I think Dark Horse may have underestimated the demand for this as there are a lot of people on the Corben FB group complaining about not getting pre-ordered copies from Amazon and other vendors yet. They aren't limited though, so there's no reason DH won't go back to print if the demand is there.

That's good news. What can I say, there are lots of us geeks that admire Den and his mighty dork.

Amazon UK now have Den vol.1 available for £27, estimated delivery for 30/09. Ordered it, we shall see...

[agent999 Senior Member Find all posts View Profile Close agent999]

Shit hot, Den is supposed to be arriving tomorrow now! At least one thing has gone right today.

Looks like the 1st printing of the Dark Horse Den collection has sold old, a 2nd printing will be coming later in October.

Hopefully they'll have larger initial print runs for vols. 2 and 3 to avoid another clusterfuck.

On the subject of Corben, is House on the Borderland worth a read?

I've never read that one and it's OOP around here and not cheap on the secondary market. One day I'll find a reasonably priced copy.
