A few days old, but I forgot to mention it. Thanks...whoever told me about it in the purged Comics Topic.

http://www.amazon.com/Gunnerkrigg-Court-Research-Thomas-Siddell/dp/1932386777/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1318121267&sr=8-3

This has been out of stock for over a year, and has been selling for anywhere between $100-$300. It's not actually back in stock yet, but they're pre-selling the new print at the standard price. If you've never checked out Gunnerkrigg Court, it's an excellent webcomic you should look into. If you have and really love it like me, I just got volume 1 and 3 today, and they're fairly large and hardcover, very much worth the cost.

I don't understand why people would pay for a webcomic.

How is it any different from buying a comic book when you can just download it online?

Also, a webcomic selling well in paperback can help the creator get work in mainstream comics. Dr. McNinja did well enough that Chris Hastings is gonna be writing Deadpool soon.

I understand why people would pay for a webcomic they really like.

I do not understand why people would pay $100-300, presumably to someone other than the creator, for a webcomic. That's just weird.

I doubt many people if anybody actually bought it at those prices, that's just what it was going for when it was OOP.

He already did Fear Itself: Deadpool.

What else is he gonna be doing?

It's nothing spectacular.

Not even close to the quality of Deadpool Max.

Someday when I have an urge to reread the entire series I'll probably be buying the printed copies.

Dammit what is this new page implying

Because if it's implying what I think it's implying, then those are some pretty heavy implications to imply
