yeah, they do seem harder to get here in the UK, i was trying to get some issue 10’s with the cool gatefold cover for afew of my mates, and even the forbiden planet store in edinburgh was runnin short on that cover just days after the comics release…and yeah, udon are doin great, the malibu street fighter comic a while back sucked, although there was a not bad colour manga released in britain which i got afew issues of a looong time ago
oh, i have eternal challenge , the japanese version, and although i cant understand jack shit about the text it is chock a block with mind blowing illustrations, for every street fighter game, really comprehensive, fantastic stuff, worth every penny…i’ve seen jap one in forbiden planet stores in UK for about 35 bucks, but if there’s an english one coming out soon then maybe its worth waiting for if u dont already have it
Well if you ever need to get hold of any drop me a line…
I trade in a lot of collectables and Ive recently been buying in lots of Street Fighter Stuff for the USA…to sell on to the wanting Uk market!
Yo, that was real cool of Erik Ko to come around to these forums. I’m not really buying the comics but i just might start now. That Ko dude is pretty cool.
I want to get into the comics because i seen the comics and they are drawn damn good and for the endings of Cap fighting evo they were drawn my udon and they looked kick ass, and another thing was that i have a great framed street fighter print and it was made by udon and i didn’t know or didn’t look who the company was. So i want to get the comics but but question is difference between 1a 1b etc only the comic cover?
Im not sure if this is the appropiate place to ask this, anyway:
I live in sweden, and when I visited a comic store that specialize in selling comics from America I found the sf comic book. Volume one.
I guess this is a collection of the first issues of the sf comic made by Udon.
Since the store where I bought the comic is very far away from where I live (in another city), I rarely get the chance to visit it (Im not even sure if I can find it again).
So I have a two questions:
1: Is Volume 2 out yet? If so do you know any online store where I can order it?
2: If volume 2 is not out, do you know any online stor where I can order the separate issues?
I really enjoyed the comic, especially the artwork. It really feels that it do the sf series justice.
Volume 2 is coming in March 2005, that will collect the mail stories from #7 to 14. You would like to pick up the individual issues if you want to get the back up stories by various guest artists. One of the places you wanna check is www.herofix.com
We also did Darkstalkers, which is another game from Capcom, so be sure to check that out first.
My only (local) comic store has issue 12 as their latest. But I see at http://www.ruppsworld.com that not only 13 & 14 are out, but vol 2. TP as well. Nedless to say, that sucks. So I wanna buy the TP’s and Eternal Challenge but Rupps is out of TP2. Pooh. And I sure as hell don’t wanna pay shipping from 2 sites.
Even if it cost extra cash I’d buy it straight from Udon, cuz you guys are the reason my favortie video game story is being played out so beautifully. I don’t even like fiction, but I wanna spend cash on getting these books so I can read them over and over. You guys gotta make it more accessible.
But even if you don’t, I’m still gonna search for, and buy, these books. Just figured it would be better for you guys to sell them to the public.
Thanks for all the good work. And thanks for coming to this site and listening to us.
EDIT: Shit. I hope Udoneko still comes to this site.
Are we still able to buy back issues? We don’t have a local comic shop here, I have to drive for an hour to the closest train station, catch a train for two hours to the city, walk for an hour from the train station to the comic shop, only to be told by the old lady who works there that she’s never heard of Street Fighter.
amen. i barely found #1 3 weeks ago at my local shop, and i had to pay $9.99 for it. the only other issue they had was #7 but i passed. no luck on ebay for me either.
I just bought 2 of the goddamn graphic novels today and let me tell you I’m rather dissapointed. Dissapointed in the fact that I gotta wait awhile for the next one to come out
They’re great, keep up the good work! Damn nice finally to see Streetifighter actually have a working plotline for a change.
