Already ordered from Amazon, too. The 45% off was more enticing than 10k credits (a relatively small sum to an addict lol).

Yeah, if it were 10k MC that'd be a pretty good deal, but HC_ I got way more than that from the promo codes thread. Definitely not worth the extra $10.

How about buying it because it's really very good and because supporting Adhesive after they have given us so much for free is a decent thing to do_  I thoroughly enjoyed the digital version from Comixology and I can't wait for my hard copy to show up. Just a few days now and I can read it again as a graphic novel should be read. Thanks Team Hawken for beautifully expanding the back story of this game and for letting us further understand the thought behind the concept. The giving away of the HC is a nice bonus but it never really effected my decision to buy Hawken Genesis in both formats as I was always going to do so.

Then why not get it from Amazon and then if you still want to support Adhesive (Archaia are just the people publishing the book), you can buy meteor credits with the $10 you saved on the book.

My mistake SirCannonFodder and thanks for pointing it out. I did mean Adhesive and I have altered the above post.

Buy it where you like though, mines coming from the Book Dipository in the UK.

What I'm trying to point out is that all I read in these posts is people complaining about the free stuff. The point is  that the Graphic Novel is worth buying because it's a good Graphic Novel and not because someone is throwing in 10,000HC. Like you so rightly said; if you need HC then you can go steel it from the Promo Code post.

You are right about $19 being a bit steep I guess. Mine was £10 which is about $15 ish...

People aren't really complaining, they're just pointing out that compared to $10 off, 10k HC isn't all that great an incentive.

Thanks for mentioning The Book Depository by the way, I'd completely forgotten about that place and it turns out that taking shipping into consideration, it's $3 cheaper than Amazon for me.

I picked it up from Amazon, and I'm currently reading through it.  Printed graphic novels are WAY better than a digital version from Comixology (IMO), and I'm enjoying it so far.  I'll put up a review once I'm finished with it.

P.S.  For anyone who orders a physical copy: Your book isn't dirty... they just printed it that way.
