I have quite a large bunch of Back Issue's. Started years back when they were just in print form and over the years purchased back issues including the free PDF electronic so I have them uploaded those to my computers and Kindle. Never know when those old reviews will come in handy or how much you will enjoy reading others thoughts about the oldies (why I love this place the CCF) and the goodies. Wish I had the time and energy to scan my box of Amazing Heroes, my other favorite!

Do their OOP issues ever get new print runs?

Do their OOP issues ever get new print runs? Nope. They are a small company with no room for storage of back issues which is why they run such good sales to clear out older stuff. They have such a low print run these days they are almost becoming a print on demand or digital only company. Used to be you could find Back Issue in the LCS but even they have stopped carrying it anymore unless you ask for an issue.

^^^ Yeah, a few years ago the LCSes in my vicinity stopped carrying the TwoMorrows mags, except for the Jack Kirby Collector. So I usually order from the TM site.

I received my very first order of print magazines in the mail yesterday. I was very pleased with the condition and how securely packed they were. In the past I had only bought digital copies. My only complaint is that one of the $2 Alter Ego issues that I was charged for was missing. I plan to make another purchase while the sale is still going on.

I take it you've already contacted them to let know, right? Some years ago they mailed a package of mags I'd ordered to some other address. When a few weeks passed and I had not received anything, I emailed them. They were very apologetic and promptly shipped out another package (to my correct address). And like brutalis said, with the print copies you also get the PDFs. It's a great set-up.

I am getting ready to order 8 more magazines.

These are really NICE books! I had only bought the digital copies in the past (and happy with them), but after recently buying the PRINT books I realize how really big and beautiful they are! A lot of love and effort really went into the making of these magazines. I highly recommend the PRINT versions.

Just got my AFTER the New Years e-mail saying the magazines have SHIPPED!! Why is it that I never feel complete, I always keep...WANTING MORE!?? Welcome to the realm of the collector. You tell yourself no i don't need that but then eventually convince yourself that you truly want it. Once you begin there is no stopping. Your habit may change over time but you still will find the craving in your brain. I still miss Amazing Heroes and can't find the strength to turn loose the copies i have boxed away...and the 2 years subscription to the 1st ever American print run of Shonen Jump Monthly because I keep telling myself one day I WILL READ THEM AGAIN. But I agree that the TwoMorrows magazines are quality stuff indeed. I started waaaay back when when all they did was the Kirby Collector. Bought the 1st issue and then lost track of the company and found them again and started ordering up the collected Kirby Collector's and a few Back Issue copies that looked very interesting. Now I have another box and Jump drives of their magazines to enjoy. They are a great mix of art and article all in one and very readable again and again.
