No joke, the book is super hot. 

It was sold out everywhere here either same or next day. 

I got lucky yesterday and found one that was in a person's hold box that was closed. 

The next issue is supposed to be well bought also.

Do you think the book will cool down? Or should I bite the bullet?

Edit:

Bit the bullet bought Thanos 14, 15 & 16 off ebay.

I'd guess it will come down at some time.  But I think it's going to hang around for a bit.  

I like the stories' who-gives-a-dizzle attitude (TM Pending).

Ive read 2nd prints its an enjoyable story so far. I honestly liked the Thanos 12 issue mini and Thanos Quest better.
But, I like how Starlin paces his books, Cates style is just different with more humor.

I'll check it out eventually... definitely don't like how they did Starlin dirty though...

Is it anyone's experience that the latter issues of Midnight Sons Unlimited are HTF? What about the ashcan? I found these at a local show on Sunday:

I've never seen the ashcan before, that's pretty cool.  I don't know the value.  I think the #9 might be worth a few ($3-$4) bucks in NM range.  But the rest are dollar books.

The full run was in the dealer's dollar boxes, but I only needed the last six issues. I bought the last three along with this Ghost Rider #69:

After looking at another seller's books who had the other half of a collection that the two guys bought together, I came back and got the remaining issues plus the ashcan which he did not charge me for. Here is my scan of its back cover:

No, more like RTBLF.

Rare To Be Looked For. lol  HTF implies that there are actually people looking and having difficulty finding them.

I've considered but passed on buying them from $1 boxes multiple times. The covers are nice, but they're just covers and I don't really collect the characters and have been trying to limit impulse purchases.

There is a Simpsons Illustrated magazine I came across years ago I thought was the 1st Simpsons appearance. 
I need to look it up again.  Found it.
