They're limited to 1500 copies so they're indeed pretty hard to find, but they do turn up on ebay from time to time. I got my copies of 1 & 2 fairly recently from a seller in Australia and the Incal one I got via abebooks from a seller in the US. Just check all ebay sites regularly (also check ebay.fr, ebay.ca, ebay.au and so on) and they're bound to turn up.
Also, Stuartng had a copy of #2 for sale last time I checked. I used him as a reference for the max price I was willing to pay on ebay

It takes a lot of patience, but they turn up eventually
Note that there's also a tenth volume, albeit unnumbered: "Virtual Meltdown", a compilation of the Epic "Chaos" and "Metallic Memories" artbooks. Again limited to 1500 copies.
I got a good copy for $125 from an Amazon seller a few weeks ago but they normally go for a lot more.

first post here, hello
guys, can someone explain to me the difference between these two:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Final-Incal-...ds=final+incal
i have pre-ordered the first one loooooong time ago, and it was the only Final Incal on Amazon UK back then, understanding that the moment it's out i will get it. Now i have noticed (second link) that it's out already. Are those different editions? Is the first one even real?
The second one is the slipcased edition, limited to 1500 copies that includes the full Final Incal story by Jodorowksy and Ladrönn, and also After the Incal with art by Moebius. After the Incal was never finished and that's why Jodorowsky rewrote the story and thus created Fincal Incal. Size of the book is 32 cm tall.
The first book is limited to 750 copies and is 40 cm tall, but does not include the Moebius pages. It still needs to be released. Although I think RedNave erroneously received a copy from this edition already. Check the first page if this thread for a link to the book.
Besides these two there's another coffee table sized book that is slipcased limited to 350 copies I believ, prices at 540$ or something ridiculous, but that does include the Moebius pages and 3 art prints.
Next year there's be a standard sized hardcover, just like The Incal, Before the Incal, Metabarons, Technopriests etc.
thank you, Martin. so i'm safe with my pre-order then. Shame i need to wait till Nov 2014 to read it
Apparently I didn't yet put a link up to the Final Incal coffee table edition... but here you go and compared to the deluxe slipcased edition. http://community.comicbookresources....l=1#post322108
haha, still don't know which one i would prefer, but i think i just leave it as it is with my preorder.
by the way - i have ordered Wood's "Cannon" today, after seeing some photos in other thread. Is it second edition, cause i was pretty sure it went out of stock quick after initial release (at least on Amazon UK)?
