Are they bringing back Diceman then?

Inside this issue You areâ?¦MATT SMITH!!!

[Dark Jimbo]

Lordy. Origins is taking a break. It'll be back. Now can't we get over this?

[Dudley]

Yes, let's talk about more important 2000ad-related events (here on the 2000AD messageboard).  Like, erm...?

[Oddboy]

...like the 30th birthday bash?

Assuming it's held this month, what with it being the 30th anniversay and all, I'll miss it 'cause I'm going to be in Australia for three weeks.

So I hope they do it in March when I get back!

Reprint classic Dredd stories like that one with The Osbournes.

:P

You're a 2000AD reader.  Origins is unavoidably delayed. Do you...

1. Enjoy one of the best story line-ups in 2000AD's almost 30-year history, whilst also looking forward to the return of Origins.

2. Whine like a motherfucker on multiple threads about the lack of a signed apology from Tharg being delivered to your doorstep by Prince Charles a nanosecond after the possibility of a delay was first discovered.

[Dudley]

Out of interest, who are you directing that at?

[Funt Solo]

Nobody in particular - I'm just being a smartarse.

(I replied to the thread-starter, who's anonymous as far as I know.)

[Dudley]

Yeah.  That'd be me (as you can see if you click through to the poll or scroll down the main message index).

Just to make it clear - I'm not expressing a point of view myself in creating a poll.

[Funt Solo]

James Mackay == Dudley?

I never knew that.

[Wake]

I'm not expressing a point of view myself in creating a poll.

I disagree. By creating a poll you are expressing an opinion that Matt Smith's actions as editor of 2000AD should be discussed by fans on 2000AD Online, and have already expressed the point of view that Rebellion should make a formal announcement.

[Dudley]

I have?  Where?

[ming]

...in your second post on the 'Origins returns in Prog...' thread.  You did say sshhhh though, so it was probably too low-profile to remember.

[Dudley]

Ahhhh.  That was a joke, and only a joke.  Not that it matters, but I actually think Rebellion's made the right move not doing a big formal announcement.
