For London-based people, you can pick up the complete run of Grant Morrison's Doom Patrol at Gosh comics opposite the British museum for £50. That's the lot. All of them. Every single issue from crawling from the wreckage through to the candlemaker.

The issues from about 39 are pretty easy to get hold of, Mega City in Camden have them for example. It's the first year and a bit of stuff that seems to not exist anywhere. Hopefully if the Animal Man trades are popular DC will put his Doom Patrol stuff out in the same way.

Unfortunately later doom patrol featurses flex mentallo so i think it unlikely we will see a collection in the forseeable future...

I think that's the party line: DC isn't going to collect the rest of DP or, if they do, the Flex issues will be gone or altered. And he's a significant participant in some of those middle stories. The best bet is to get the single issues of the entire series (even the Crawling From The Wreckage TPB is edited to exclude allusions to the subsequent "Brotherhood of Dada" story, IIRC).

Interestingly, DC allowed the Flex covers to be reprinted in Rian Hughes' Device collection, which - although they make up a very small part of a very big, specialist book - suggests that they're still (semi-) flexible on the issue.
