... I must disagree with you. For one the films are out of Kevin's hands as far as overseas releases goes - that is down to the suits!!! The reason that there are no DVD releases over here is simple - whoever decides what back-catalogue films should be released has decided (for whatever reasons) that Clerks, Rats and Amy do not make the cut. Dogma however I can almost guarantee will get a DVD release at some point and I wouldn't be suprised if the older films followed.
As for the comics (and all the merchandise for that matter) they're available at all comic shops - not just Forbidden Planet. I'm sorry if they're not available at your local WHSmith or newsagent but that's because they're not published by Marvel or DC!!! You want to get yourslef to a nice friendly comic shop and if they don't have what you want - just ask them (they want your business - trust me!!!).
Anyway lay of Kevin he does everything he can for the fans and as a brit I have every piece of Merchandise, Comics, DVDs etc. that VA have put out - it just takes determination and knowing where to go - and with the internet you have plenty of options!!!
