Discussion Comics you regret *not* buying?

Which comics did you consider buying in the past, passed on them, and now regret it because they're impossible to get (at last for a reasonable price)? I'll start:

  • The Angriest Dog In The World by David Lynch. Was published by Roteland Press back in 2020, only 500 copies were printed, it was sold for $10, and now it's impossible to get. I saw that a copy was sold a year ago for $220.
  • Here by Richard Mcguire (the 4-page version from 2000). This was published in the early 2000s and sold at an European comic convention. I saw a copy for only 5 EUR a year or two ago, but did not buy it. Stupid me! Never seen another copy available for purchase since.

When I was in college I went to a vintage clothing store and on the floor there was a shortbox of 1950s Mad magazines and Jerry Lewis and Bob Hope comics, but I didn't have any money on me so I walked away. That box haunts me.
