Default Tomb Raider Archives availability

I am interested in the first volumes of Tomb Raider Archives. I looked for an online store, but found no stores that would offer them. Do you know where I can buy them? Or have they all been sold out since 2016/2017?

Unfortunately they are all sold out. You can find some copies on eBay, but they are extremely expensive.

In this situation, I think it will be best for me to buy the upcoming issues of Tomb Raider Archives V.1 and Tomb Raider Archives Vol.2 that will be released in Poland in Spring 2021. One volume will probably be somewhat close to 44 euros, although the price isn't known for sure yet. I prefer reading the originals, in English, but if that's impossible I'll read them in Polish.

I've bought all TR Archives when they were released. It's always the best thing - to buy right after a premiere.

I'm happy that soon there will be Polish edition, but it's good thing to have an original and check if the translation is correct

Probably you wouldn't be interested in Czech language edition, but they are still available to buy (Vol.1-4)

Price for one book is 34.89€ now.

For other Volumes type Tomb Raider in field "...hledat"

And imo czech Vol2 has a lot better cover image than original one :P

I asked Megan if she knew anything about any comic rereleases for the anniversary.

I really hate that almost every piece of TR merch is always only made for a very limited amount of time and then becomes pretty expensive in the aftermarket. I bought Volume 1 when it was released, but then I didn't have the money to buy the other books at release. Eventually when I had enough money to buy them, they were already sold out everywhere and only available for more than 100€. This is ridiculous! Who would produce comics in such a limited quantity, especially considering how beloved those are?

I'm also pretty sure that a lot of them got bought by those weird collectors who will never read them and just put them into storage unopened. Seriously screw those guys.

For real. Comics are meant to be read and loved, not hoarded by scalpers
Hopefully they'll reprint them soon.. miracles happen! I was saving money to buy the soft-cover compendium (hundreds of bucks and notorious for having a weak binding) just before the Archives were announced
