Hi Folks,
I'm looking for some more Bags and Boards for me old Progs. Any recommendations? - online sources?

I've used the 'Collectorline' ones from Dublin's branch of Forbidden Planet, but they seem to be in and out of stock.

Also, are the anti-acid calcium-backed boards any use?

Ta,
John

It's a bit like the '70s again.
I'm 43, getting back into drawing comics, and... rediscovering the fun of the arrival of the weekly comic! Every Wednesday, I have that special thing to look forward to. That little treat. I'd forgotten what it's like.

On the way to school in the late '70s/early 80s, I'd nip into a newsagent to see the latest Prog. So excited - yes! Pay my 20p or whatever it was, and revel in the latest Otto Sump/Dredd episode; sat in the corridors of my secondary school, a half hour before the rest of my class swaggered in  - heads full of nothing but football. Read - quick! - they'll be here - soon. If I was lucky? - my comic wouldn't be kicked from one end of the school to the other...

Now, I'm so impressed by the current DREDD artwork - and amazed to see Carlos still doing his magic (it's been over 30 years!) - black line - no photoshop - and still marvellous.

2000ad is now my weekly inspiration, as I commence my work on a career in comics - at last. Just as I always said I would. back then... Wish me luck?

Hi All,
I've been wanting to read the whole thing for many years. I never got to follow all of it issue by issue way back then...

So, The Cursed Earth Dredd Epic: What's the 'best' omnibus edition for me to get?

Thanks!
John
