I live in the UK where Archie comics are hard to come by, especially in the suburbs. I first got interested in Archie through the Knuckles comics via Sonic HQ's Archie Encyclopaedia and scans. I fell in love with the work of Ken Penders and Manny Galan
I only have one comic store locally which is more than most towns, but I harldy ever see any Archie comics, and have to take a train into the city to get to the good places.
Anyway, a couple of years ago, on my first trip to Camden, I found a few sets of Knuckles comics, collected in awesome three-issue sets (very handy). However, I didn't have a lot of money on me and they were kind of expensive (£2.50 - at the time $5 - per issue) so I only bought the first three. Since then that same store had either stopped selling them and I've looked all over to get my hands on subsequent issues, to no avail, and since Archie doesn't accept orders for back issues outside of the US, I'm kinda stuck.
So does anybody know of any place in the UK that I can order them in from? Is there a technically a less than legal place online where I can read them? Does anybody know if Archie plans to do a Knuckles Archives like the Sonic counterparts? I've never liked the idea of the Sonic Archives personally, but I'd definately get Knuckles ones if they did 'em.
Please! Help me out!

C'mon, Blue, you should know better than to ask that here, or on any site that goes by the law. As far as comic shops go, PM Samanfur the Fox as she regularly recommends places to find issues of ArchieSonic for other UKers.
What he said. SHQ stays above board about these things.
I'm reasonably lucky in having a local independent comic shop that'll stock Archie, but I've been subscribing here since 1998 and not had any problems. I've had no reason to check since then, but when I first started, you didn't even need a credit card - they were perfectly happy to accept cheques or postal orders. Again, I'm not sure if that's still true.
Don't worry guys. I just said that "less than legal" thing for poops and giggles. I'm a good boy really.
Thanks for the suggestion Sam, but I couldn't find any Knuckles stuff on there. Do you know if I can put in a special order to them?

Its Funnier Then a Headless Chicken!
Its actually a family-friendly version the saying. I'll PM you the ACTUAL "not suitible for forums with kids hanging around" phrase if you wanna know.
