Halo's great! I'm enjoying Time Splitters 2 a lot at the moment.

And I've just read that Grand Theft Auto 3 + Vice City is coming out on the X-Box!

Brutal Sports football? Don't recall a Mega Drive version, but it was out on PC, Amiga and Atari Jaguar

   I've not read, it, but according to a friend it has 32 extra pages, some of which are a new introduction and others are additions/revisions to the story.

Hmmm, 'Maximum Overdrive'.. Didn't Alan Moore rewrite that as 'All of Them Were Empty' in prog 251?

   Well they're about to release the first set with Lando Calrissian in it - the first non-yellow Legoman...

>Gromit, how did that get in there?

   Nah, that's a GNK droid (Well, actually it's a 2x2x2 container box with door stuck on 2 1x1 round plates and 2 1x1 plates with clip vertical)

>  Could you use Jabba the hut as a jewel case?

Nah, his head doesn't come off :( Bloody lego one-piece models - I'm dreading to see what the Rancor's going to look like.  

    OK, I'm admitting I know far too much about Star Wars and Lego here so I'll shut up now...

As I said, I like football - I just don't have the spare time to devote to following a team (Norwich have been promoted thought - woot )

I've also never had much interested in sport related comics, so haven't had the interest to buy Striker - it doesn't help that it's a strip that started in the Sun, which is a paper I loathe.

>If football's so boring why is it the most
>popular sport?

   Herd mentality - moo ;) Seriously - I think part of its popularity is that everything goes on about football being bigger than God, so people like it just to be 'part of the crowd'

   Although, I quite like the game and will be watching some of the European cup.

Good issue, although Devlin Waugh is dragging on... and on...

I like the story for Xtnct, just not a fan of gore (Which is a problem as I've got to the prog 700s in my re-reads...)

Oh, my issue's missing a staple!!!

>Surely if a job needs doing, the posistion isn't redundant?

I'm pretty sure that under employment law states that if you're made redundant from a position, the company is not allowed to employ anyone in that same position for 6 months.

Got mine - walked to the comic shop near my Dad on Wednesday (It's about 3/4 of an hour each way), only to find out they don't get a delivery until Thursday. So I repeated the journey on Thursday to find out that there's a choice of TWO badges - and they're both really cool... and they've only got one copy of 2000AD left, so I can't buy two... But they were cool and let me have both badges anyway! Hoorah!

Bugger, me mates getting married that day! Bloody Goths...

Ian Gibson.

Well, the embryos weren't allowed to live past 14 days so they wouldn't resemble anything more than a splodge...

Eew, they used foreskin tissue as a source of skin cells...

    Steve

OK, this is weird...

Yeah, I've just finished Time Flies as part of my re-read and quite enjoyed it - it's still not a classic though.

Urrrgh, just got to the Mark Millar Robo-Hunters though :(
