Aaaaaarrrrrggggh!

Hello,fellow agents. I just picked up my final 3 issues of Sanctum's The Shadow reprints (5 in the last week... not sure why Diamond wasn't getting them to my comics dealer but that's a moot point now) My gripe is that three stories are not going to be reprinted. Granted they are Elliott tales but after over 13 years of collecting the reprints I expected to have a complete series. I'm not going to buy the three issues on eBay or some other marketplace since the stories aren't really worth it.  I found one issue for $45 but would rather put that towards an issue I really wanted.
I guess I'm just disappointed and a bit angry.  I'm a completist and this just throws my world outta whack.

UPDATE:  I got information from Bill "Superfan" Thinnes letting me know that Conde Nast pulled the licenses from everyone and that Anthony Tollin had to scramble to get the last Gibson and Tinsley stories published.  Sad that it couldn't have made it to the finish line but I'm grateful for what we've gotten and understand the situation.
