Very excited to see Kingdom vol.4! Does anyone know how many volumes Abnett has planned for Kingdom?  I think I read somewhere that this series has a definitive ending.

I'm hoping to see a third volume of Lawless and a second volume of Jaegir in 2020 as well.

The last series running from prog 2100- 2110 called Alpha and Omega is suppose to be the last series. The ending is leaves a lot of questions open for me. I hope we get another series but that might be wishful thinking.
When I die, I want to die like my grandfather who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.

Old age is the Lord's way of telling us to step aside for something new. Death's in case we didn't take the hint.

The last series was definitely not the final one. So said Mr Abnett when I bumped into him recently in Eastbourne.

Yeah was confirmed in the letters page too a few months ago - I needed reminding of that! Chuffed but if it was going to end that would have been a decent ending.

I think we have to salute DAbnett — knowing that the Elson droid is much in demand, it's a smart move to end the book with a neat wrap-up if you've no idea how long it will be before you can do another.

Thanks for the info, glad to hear Kingdom will continue! Hopefully sooner than later...seems I cant get enough Abnett these days.

I read the prog digitally but wait reading certain titles until collected and printed. Kingdom being one of these, so I haven't read Alpha and Omega yet. Waiting is tough...tougher and tough, but I love binge reading it!

Another novel would hold me over just fine in the meantime, as Fiefdom was fantastic too.

Good news (and glad to be wrong). I actually missed the news about Kingdom in the letter pages.

Unlikely, not like there's a copper in sight.

My first thought was that Dredd is holding his daystick the wrong way around, but I suppose it doesn't matter which way around if he's not holding it by the grip.  He could have just drawn it from the holder on his belt; or just about be ready to slide it back.

He's just getting ready for simultaneous hang the bear (mutie), take out armed insurgent (daystick to head) while simultaneously taking out armed insurrectionist (with lawgiver). Two seconds later, this is a very different, bloodier scene.
