I like the cover, especially the fact that it feels like the old annuals of yesteryear. I still think we are suffering from some scheduling issues here going back to the xmas prog. I am not sure from my point of view that this can really be seen as a point where new readers can just pick up and go. We have a few stories that are either in the middle or near the end of their respective runs. Maybe that is part of the plan to showcase and pull in readers to entice them to buy the back progs but to have a few stories starting. I still prefer a natural break. Back to the prog it was a good solid prog.

Dredd – A good start to a new arc – this was just a prelude. I am not too familiar with the artist, but I do like it.

Full Tilt Boogie – Interesting new twist in the story. As always, a good solid episode. Love this.

Thistlebone – This was one twisted tale. I do feel that by the last episode this was dragging its feet a little bit but still a good horrorfest. Simon Davis does know how to gore us out.

Indigo Prime – Like the usage of B/W in the strip still as always, a lot of head-scratching going on what is really going on and yes, I think that is the idea.

Rogue – The bigger disappointment with the strip is not the story but rather the art of Paul Marshall which is not up to his normal high standards. The story itself is fine, nothing spectacular.

Vex – Glad to have this back since this has been my favorite series the last few years. The first episode covers a lot of ground. This was an excellent opening.

Yes, he did a Cadet Dredd story in prog 2346. Personally I am not a fan of his style

This was a very meh meg, nothing stood out for me. The Dredd tale falls into the superhero trap – you need a bigger monster to fight the big hero. Normally I like Devlin, but I just cannot get into this arc. Harrow Squad is readable, nothing more. DeMarco never really got off as a stand-alone strip. The meg is currently on a very low ebb, where is Lawless, Dreadnoughts, Megatropolis (last seen in 2021)?

Quote from: Tjm86 on 16 March, 2024, 04:39:38 PM....Davis is the perfect choice for this strip although Lee Carter would be a close second after his performance on Cradlegrave..... 

Cradlegrave's art was by the late Edmund Bagwell
