HAHA..Thanks Jon!

Interesting and thanks for sharing, I've never seen this comic before in person and would like to know more about it.  :)

Hi Digi..Would like to oblige but do not have an English version..I did however get a Spanish version  ;)

You can get more info or a digital version for $9.99 here :P

(I almost bought it then realized it was the digital version at the last moment, so I ran away)!

Nice Krog, at least it can be translated - I thought there was a phone app that can translate text in real time?  Much appreciated owl, will check it out and I'd prefer the physical copy as well.

Owl....haha...had the same experience  :D

I met the guys that made this in London at a Bitcoin Conference in 2014. It was exciting then and they did finally manage to get funding to print it. It appears though, since that printing, they have printed no further copies and as a result the English copies especially are very hard to come by.

As it was originally published in Spanish, this language version is a lot easier to find as stocks begin to run dry. It did also get released as a digital download as some here have found out! ;) Been there too!

I snagged a copy a while ago and its sitting there gathering the patina of collectability. I did however manage to find another on ebay recently which was a huge surprise! So they do/may appear!

They're now being classified as a rare book in some book stores (spanish version) so I would hazard a guess the English version is even rarer.

IF you find one, keep it secret, keep it safe, the precioussss

Still looking and looking  >:(

Still looking...Please PM me if you have one for sale..thanks! :-X

English version. It's a thick comic. Raised spot gloss black ink on the front. A series of releases would have been pretty cool.

From the back: "... Satoshi Nakamoto, created the ultimate tool for global financial disruption now worth six billion dollars..."

They also had a video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0PuIGcotHWI

It's basically more than a hundred pages of art with an original story line. Super cool.

That is an incredibly cool piece, I hope you find one.  And if you do and happen to find a second one, hit a brother up, I want one as well, price depending of course ;)

The only time I have seen one come up was when one was auctioned here a little while back and went for about .1 or so.  Good luck with the chase.

Yep, that's mine now. :) And it's staying in the crypto-collection. 8)

Good luck with the search krog!

Yes! Thankyou!

How hard is the Spanish version to find?

Can't seem to find any for sale besides eBay.

I have a couple of the Spanish versions. Still looking for the English one though.

English edition yes, but they do still have Spanish I believe.
It's where I bought my hardback copy (ESP)

It appears even the spanish version books are  sold out. 

the spanish version is still in stock:  http://www.dibbuks.es/tienda/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=356 (http://www.dibbuks.es/tienda/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=356)

Still Hunting  ;)

The last one that I have seen was up for auction here a few months ago.  I thought for sure you were going to go for it

Yes I saw it and bid on it. But I have a limit on what I am willing to shell out for one too. ;)

Me too :)

  I am learning it is better to keep Bitcoin in Digital format...it will make you more money in the long run :D

  But the collector in me still yearns for these historical pieces of Bitcoin's early days. So I must find a good balance too  ;)

Weekly BUMP

Still on the journey to discovering your whereabouts Satoshi!

I'm starting up and self financing a new bitcoin comic book since this one seems to have gone dormant with new releases.

Anyone interested?

Interested.

What do you gave in mind? Gofundme ? Kickstarter?

Here is a link for more info https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2794986.msg28574467#msg28574467 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2794986.msg28574467#msg28574467)

I'd like to start by self funding a creative design team to establish the comic book universe and characters setting and essentially develop an MVP and first issue draft.  From there I will be better able to asses future costs and implications and decide next steps.

Things like:

- Bitcoin as a super power ring people put on to get bitcoin super powers, government attacks: caveman with spear jumping out randomly, spear breaks, caveman retreats, bitcoin guy wonders if a mosquito bit
- The world gets plagued by dreams of kittens taking over the world (crypto kitties) so bitcoin guy/girl takes action to prepare for the kitty apocalypse
- Bitcoin guy walks down the street and people call him stupid (not mentioning anyone at JP Morgan lol) and comic discussion ensues
- Asian dictator (not mentioning anyone in Korea lol) threatens X and Monero guy/girl comes to the rescue
- Tidal wave comes and disables large banking building from a "Ripple" in the fabric of Financial (financial could be a physical island where scientists are doing experiments which accidentally create a tidal wave knocking out power for a group of banking leaders) etc
