I bet you could find those at a comic book store or ebay, because they are not that rare and fairly recent.

i just bought the tpb

 

[Elijya]

of what? Ultimates?

 

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

I am not sure if anyone has reccommended this or not, I haven't seen it but I did see the Saga that followed it

The Thanos Quest
Writer Jim Starlin

This story tells how Thanos discovered the might of the Infiity Gems and how he comes into posession of them. IMHO it's a great read but and is a great lead up to the IG Saga, I do think that with so much retconning and aditional stories involving the heart of the universe etc have taken some value away from these books, they are still great none the less and some of my all time favorite reads

 

[Elijya]

absolutely amazing story. Unfortunately, it's a little hard to come by

Is Thanos Quest in TPB?

 

[Elijya]

sort of. It was originally published in two prestige format books which were combined in a square bound newsprint volume, but this was back in like 1992, so you can't find it. try ebay

Crap. I've read it (online, thanks to bittorrent) but I'd like to own it.

Yes actually it is a little uncommon, but great to own if you do But for some reason there seems to be a bit of an influx around my area with them, I know at least two comic shops around here that have both issues if not multiple copies of them

Which would be the best Fantastic Four comics to read if you wanted to get into the psyche of Doctor Doom?

 

[5OCIAL 5Y5T3M]

the Doom TPB, books of Doom, Unthinkable TPB

 

[Elijya]

all wrong, although those're good.

THIS is the correct answer. Greatest Doom story. ever. period.
