I meant have you any more news about when the updated and corrected JD Case Files 42 might be available for purchase. (Sorry if this was not immediately clear).

Sadly not, other than what I mentioned in #294.

Strangely enough, I recently had a dream where I received said Case File and I discovered that most of pages were blank. What does it all mean...?

[Any further news about the Case File, Batman's Superior Cousin?]

I was thinking if the mistake in Case Files 42 is going to be fixed, is there any chance errors in other books could be addressed for subsequent printings? I was thinking of 'The Out', 'Fiends of the Eastern Front' volume 1 (i.e. 'Stalingrad') and 'America 2'.

P.S. Any further news about the Case File, Batman's Superior Cousin?

What do you mean by that Max...?

2) As for the mini "Cadet Dredd" Regened stories, what do you propose that I should do for those readers that both enjoy that and feel that they should be added to the list...?

Just completely ignore me, would be my advice. I was only stating a personal preference - not suggesting a change. Opinions are like arseholes - everyone's got one.

No problemo, I was actually toying with the idea of cutting them off into their own separate section for next year's topic.

Speaking of which, sorry folks but I'm now officially adding another story to the voting poll which apparently passed me by which @Funt Solo [R] has just informed me about...

Judge Dredd: The Telltale Incin Bin (Prog 2347)
Story By: Alan Kerr

[The Telltale Incin Bin]

1) In The Event of My Untimely Demise
2) Shrine
3) A Matter of Life & Dredd

HM's goes to The Night Shifter, The Hagger They Fall, Chimera, Flusher, The Telltale Incin Bin & Poison.

One might also want to consider The Telltale Incin Bin from prog 2347 - a one-page Dredd strip by Alan Kerr. (Personally, I don't count Cadet Dredd, as it's not in the prog and it's not Judge Dredd.)

1) Regarding "The Telltale Incin Bin", if truth be told, I completely forgot all about that particular story. I'll add it in an official post in a couple hours time.
2) As for the mini "Cadet Dredd" Regened stories, what do you propose that I should do for those readers that both enjoy that and feel that they should be added to the list...?

[HM]

1) Hershey
2) Azimuth
3) The Out

HM goes to Die Hoard (3riller), Feral and Foe, Helium, Proteus Vex & Rogue Trooper.
