IDW Complication for us here...
So i rang up afew comic shops in my local area i live in the UK They said they are not allowed to stock or sell any tmnt because of licencing issues
I was incredibly disheartened by this as i want to read the new comics! Why do they have to be so awkward i think he also said thats the same issue with the current idw doctor who issues also.. Does anyone know where else i could buy these which will ship to the UK? sidenote im liking cover e of variant #2 :P |
I notice reedcomics.com have #2
Otherwise: eBay. There are even a few UK-based sellers (though auctions rather than BIN). I'm just going to sit it out and hope Turtles get added to the IDW app. Failing that I'll wait for the trade. |
Or you could go through Grahamcrackers.com, mycomicshop.com, Milehighcomics.com, midtowncomics.com and a plethora of other US based online retailers that offer both international shipping AND subscription services.
I believe Titan owns the rights to the Turtles in the UK (because I wrote for them a couple of years ago and couldn't get any of them to Australia). |
I noticed this in Paris as well. I hit about 6 shops, and none of them stocked tmnt, despite carrying other IDW books.

The variants are much better than the standard cover tho they are massively overpriced hmmm... |
Yeah, I noticed this as well and emailed IDW about it who said they don't have the licensing to sell TMNT over here in the UK. I checked ebay but the single issue is priced at around £10, and this is not only an expensive but unreliable way of collecting the series. I was going to wait for the trades, but seeings how the series has only just started this is going to be ages away yet. Majorly distraught with this!?

I got mine through Reed Comics - they haven't let me down yet and have been very helpful, so I can recommend going with them. But I don't like having to rely on a single supplier, so would prefer to have a backup option in place as well, though I've yet to find any other UK online stores selling them. Should be getting some variants from a UK based eBay seller but the price is vastly inflated, so I won't be doing that too often!

There's a movie/cult/comics collector thing on at Earls Court in London this weekend and I intend to ask any dealers there if they are stocking it. If I find any I will post here.
