I have IDW Classic GI Joe Vol 1 and 2, but I kept putting off buying Vol 3 and 4 from Amazon because I figured they'd always be there. Now that 5 and 6 are out, I was going to buy all four books. To my surprise, Amazon is out of stock and it'll cost me $50-150 to get Vol 3 and 4 from other sellers (even on half.com) and my local comic shops are out of them as well. Amazon has 1, 2, 5, 6 for $13.59. I don't get it.
Are these out of production already or do you think they're temporarily out of stock? And why are the other four issues so readily available but somehow 3 and 4 are ultra rare? Anybody have any good info on this? I can't seem to find it on the boards if it's already been discussed.

For a while, #3 was unavailable on Amazon, and then it came back. Just keep checking. But in the meantime, check with your local bookseller. They might be able to order it for you, as they might have another distributor. I actually found my #3 on the shelf at Borders. It was $20, but I snagged it because of the Amazon thing, though when I went to Amazon after I bought it, sure enough, there it was. My best guess is that IDW is just doing small runs, who knows, maybe even print-on-demand runs. The quality actually feels like it to me.

Borders is out (I think they're stocked by Amazon anyway) and so is Barnes and Noble.
I haven't seen them at their local stores either.

Volume 6 was late getting out on Amazon, so don't be surprised if 7 is later than it is scheduled.

I'm interested in picking up the books. Does anyone have a pic of the pages? Is the coloring completely filled in or is it the same as the original with the classic comic book dotting.

They've been digitally recolored.

If you have a Barnes n Nobles near you, they might have it, they've done a good job of stocking the IDW G.I. Joe books and Marvel reprints.
