Just seen the advert on ITV4. Looks good.

I saw the ad at half time during the Chelsea - Liverpool league cup semi-final on Sky Sports last week, which was most unexpected. Indeed one could argue that was the most exciting part of the whole match. :lol:

Took a while to find it in my local W.H.Smith, not with the comics, not with the part-works either, it was on the back of a stand in the corner of the shop facing the wall, considered moving it somewhere more prominent myself

My local newsagent also has it, top shelf next to the porn lol

In regards to the colour pages, the one I will be really disappointment about being in B&W will be Oz.

Just got my sub copies and they are lovely bits of design and craftsmanship

Cool, I hope this means that they are sending the second volume out in advance instead of making you wait until it was released in the shops before getting two at a time as they did with my Marvel collection!

Wound up buying this, told myself I wouldn't because I had the stories elsewhere but it looked so glorious on the shelf that I had to have it immediately.

It's a very nice package, love the way the stories have been collected together thematically (having Cadet bundled with America and Fading of The Light is awesome) and it's a great quality book. I won't be subscribing (although I'm very tempted, but space is an issue), it's a fantastic series for someone who doesn't own this stuff and is maybe just getting into Dredd though.

Lots of people on my Twitter timeline posting pictures of the volumes and badge (and coffee holder if you subbed online).

Badge looks ok in the pics.

It does appear that subbers will be one book in advance of the newsagents, which is good.

Hope to get mine in the post tomorrow.

I suspect it might also depend when you subscribed. People here are talking about getting issues two and three; I got issue one this morning, and I know others are still waiting for issue one.

Subbed when it was still in it's trial format but there are people on my timeline on Twitter who bought the first issue from a newsie and subbed 11 days ago that got issues 2 & 3.

Seems to be plenty of interest in this. 2 guys at work whom l thought had zero interest in comics have ordered. Z

It's worth noting that to keep P&P free for the whole collection, lots of orders are sent out in batches - so it's not like ordering from Amazon or subscribing to the Prog.

"For feck's sake Arcade, we've ordered the bloody thing, okay? Now leave us alone and shut the hell up about it".

Now are you definitely sure?? If you're not I'll post again! Z

Read 'America' and 'Fading of the Light' last night and was blown away by them. Had only read 'America' before and - sacrilege I know - my only previous read was back at original publication. I enjoyed it then but it has affected me more now... I must be a soppy old scrote (or it seems less fanciful given the way the world has gone recently).

Most of this volume I don't have, so a required purchase. Believe the Hype  :)
Now plan a re-read of Mechanismo and The Apocalypse War shortly, seems apt somehow. For shame I doubt these have been read more than once. Long overdue. I know, I know...

Oh, and Craddock's colours are fine?!

I'd post it again. Just to be sure.
