Oh lord, please ignore me. I somehow managed to skip 2 pages!

As a horror nerd, the incorrect Scanners reference in Indigo Prime annoyed me. 

Nemesis landed safely today! *phew*

I've not had 2211, 2212 or the megazine, and my HB of Nemesis was apparently sent a week ago, with no sign of it yet. It's safe to say I'm a wee bit annoyed.

Now gone!

3 boxes of 2000ad, earliest is from 2001 (Prog 1238)
1 box of Judge Dredd Megazine, earliest from 2003 (Issue 206)

All in great condition.
Not complete runs, but enough to get a good collection started, or to fill gaps in one.
The Megazines do not have the mini-graphics, but there are a few posters in there.

Collection only from Edinburgh please. They need to be gone by Monday 2nd of April.

I'm not sure what it is, but I'm really not enjoying The Order at the moment. The first story was great, but this one feels too....unfocused? Also, ABC Warriors has just never grabbed me.

Other than that, fantastic stuff. Really enjoying Ghosts.

I currently subscribe to both 2000ad and the Megazine in physical format, which is great, but means it can be a real pain in the arse to dig out older stories for a re-read. I'd love a digital subscription that I could back up and access easily at any time, but I'll be buggered if I'm paying out full price for another sub. A combiined subscription, or even free digital copies for subscribers would be brilliant. Failing that, a subscription based digital archive like Marvel Unlimited would also work.

What about those of us who are subscribers, but are smart-phone impaired?

It went really well, thank you. Completely sold out, and (I hope) a good time was had by all.

Proudhuff:: It was good to shake your hand, sorry I couldn't hang about to chat!

Cool. If you want to say "Hi", just look for the large, long haired guy in a nerdy t-shirt looking stressed. That'll be me. Name's Jamie.

Quick reminder: The Comic Sale is tonight at the Oxfam Bookshop on Nicholson Street in Newington. Starts 5.30pm to 8pm. Loads of great comics!

I hope the weather stays nice enough to draw people out, and then goes crap enough to keep them in! 

Okay, here are the (hopefully) finalised details:

Also worth noting, the Oxfam bookshop on Nicholson street is planning on having a late opening comic sale the evening before the event! I've seen their stock of comics, and there's some great stuff there.

Damn, that's a pisser.

Give me a shout when you are down in August.
