Does anyone know where I can buy the new Robert Crumb comic, Tales of Paranoia, in Edinburgh? I tried Forbidden Planet this afternoon and they couldn't help and Deadhead is sadly no more. I know Diamond going bust has screwed up distribution but it will be a shame if I have to resort to mail order

Saw this book in the Pennypit free library. Someone has cut out one of the naked ladies on the cover. Not sure if it's censorship or if the previous owner just couldn't bear to let her go
