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 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.

Hi Guys,

I'm organising another Comic Event for Oxfam, to take place on the 23rd of July at the MacDonald Road Library in Edinburgh. So far our confirmed guests are Gary Erksine, David Bishop, Ferg Handley, John McShane and George Low. We are still awaiting final confirmation on a few others.

I know this is a little late, but I was wondering if any other artists or writers fancied coming along and sitting on the panels? We're planning on doing 2 panels, one covering Commando and other War Comics, and the other will be just general comic chat. There will also be a stall selling comics and graphic novels. The event is due to start at 11.30am and will end about 4pm, where we then all wander off to the pub!

If you are interested, please contact me either through this forum, or via the following means:
Email: oxfam.f5808.comics@googlemail.com
Twitter: twitter.com/oxfambookseh10
Phone: 01314469169 or 01314460387

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Oxfam is planning a Book fortnight in July and the manager of the shop I volunteer at in Edinburgh is organising various events during that fortnight. One he wants to do is a comic workshop, and has been trying to contact various Comic writers and artists to see if they would be interested in volunteering a few hours of their time to talk or do a demonstration during the workshop. We're after the contact details of any of Scottish 2000ad writers and artists, so any help at all would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
