The Complete Zenith

[Jimmy Baker's Assistant]

The book is still seal and unopened

Grrrrrrrrr 

[Spikes]

And another one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/zenith-sealed-hardcover-grant-morrison-steve-yeowell-ltd-1000-2000ad/350894358509?_trksid=p2050601.m2451&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D266%26meid%3D1840726605246428845%26pid%3D100103%26prg%3D1141%26rk%3D2%26rkt%3D4%26sd%3D370915075816%26clkid%3D1840728822933248528&_qi=RTM1489538

and even has the balls to charge £7 for postage! 

And 16 people watching it!
Bit much for peeps to be flinging them onto e-Bay like this, but hey...

It isn't really a surprise though is it? It's not nice to see it happen this quickly but out of that 1000 purchasers, some of them were bound to people trying to make a few quid.

This will always happen when a limited run of a certain item is produced. The Speculator will always rule, if given the chance!

Watching collections of stuff he knocked out in the eighties earning £600 per copy for other people will in no way focus Grant Morrison's attention on the matter of sorting out the rights and getting more copies into print. What were Rebellion thinking of?

Mine's arrived at its delivery destination, I've been told!   

No chance to read today, but looking forward to checking it out tomorrow.

Feel bad for those who wanted one, but couldn't get a copy.

What were Rebellion thinking of?

Getting the content out? Setting a precedent, which will subsequently enable them to release other editions later? Finally enabling Steve Yeowell to make some money from a strip that's long languished in reprint hell?

[Jimmy Baker's Assistant]

I didn't get my copy today. Why do you hate me, Rebellion?

I think you're being rather unfair - after all this one is 5p cheaper 

[shaolin_monkey]

Ooh, look what just turned up! This puts the kibosh on any practice I was going to do tonight.

[hippynumber1]

No sign of mine 

I also notice that one of the ebay listings has ended...

Arse. Today has not been a good day for brainpower/reading.

As for the £100 Zentih book , nothing special to write home about , it does not have the feel of an expensive book , the binding is of cheap basic qualitly , i would not compare the quality to the Dc Absolute Edition's ..... and at twice the price , i would have expected more .... D- FOR EFFORT and Quailty  ...

Very true. The majority of the 'value' is it's exclusivity. I'm sure having a smaller run costs more but then I have no idea of what the publication numbers are for things such as the recent Nemesis 'public' hardback or as a good 'big' example, the IDW collections which cost only £23.55 for the Carlos 2 book.

It will only feel harsh when the softback(s) eventually come out. Does look nice on my shelf though
Nice to have the full collection at last.
