Fine news. The article states 190 pgs, that poses other questions about what else we get besides... plenty Scream content to choose from. So many questions.

Wow very cool. Have to be honest to my shame I didn't even know this existed so this is pretty exciting.

A bit of me feel sorry for Maranddavid after all his good, no great, no SENSATIONAL work with Hibernia Rebellion are stealing his thunder!* But then it'll probably find a bigger audience this way.

*This is of course utterly unfair as I have no idea if Hibernia had any plans to do this, or whether they'd have had the clout to get it, but its not going to stop me leaping to unfounded conclusions!

Knowing M&D he's probably just happy to see it reprinted at all. As we all should be, fantastic news.

Not at all Colin, It's great news. I have known of it for a while, I even got to help out in a small way on the book. Looking forward to it, Rebellion know how to package this sort of material, The Dan Dare book was fantastic.

Glad to read that, maryanddavid, very magnanimous. Wouldn't be surprised to see Hibernia credited in this new collection, feels like they kickstarted this most excellent trend for reprints.

[Dash Decent]

The more material out the better, and it's great to see Rebellion looking at stories from Scream and Eagle.  If they enlarge into the horror reprint pitch, well, it will just mean maryanddavid will be able to consider that UK funny comic reprint title a bit sooner!

Realising that their maker, Ro-Busters CEO Howard Quartz, is the figurehead behind most of the devastation on Mars, the Warriors decide to terminate him. The problem is that due to their programming, they can't.

FANTASTIC - I've been waiting for this one. This volume brings the series up to the stuff I've not got from the Meg. Can't wait!

Sooner or Later is nearing release, which is fantastic, but is there a reason why Tony Wright (Riot) doesn't get a credit on the cover?  He's in the credit boxes on most episodes and contributed a lot to this.  Just curious...
