    Anyone ever find out why this particular volume is so hard to come across?

    I have the first 4 all from Amazon. Didn't know any of them were hard to come by. I had a bit of trouble finding the fifth volume but I found it after a little bit of searching. Must remember to order it though.

    I don't think they have had it recently I rang them about a month ago when I got the other five and they said they had no real chance of getting it soon.

    I was intending on starting to collect the Akira manga, but vol. 3 is impossible to find at a reasonable price (€60 seems cheap compared to the asking prices I've seen for it online). Dark Horse really should get their act together are re-print that volume!

    Then the originals go up even more in price. We all know how some people go crazy over things like that. Good idea though.
