Realised you missed out on John Hicklenton's Third World War? Never read 'The New Adventures of Hitler'? Do you have fond memories of Brendan McCarthy's Artoons? Fancy a bit of politics with your Carlos Ezquerra?
Here's 3 beautiful hardcover custom bound books containing CRISIS (1988) Issues 1 - 53...

If the Deluxe edition of Marshal Law had you scratching your head and wondering if something was missing this is for you. This version includes Pinhead Vs Marshal Law (and is signed by Clive Barker on the book intro), also reinstated is the Savage Dragon team- up, and the crazy finale The MASK/Marshal Law 2 Issue Dark Horse series. There's also a cheeky one page inclusion with the other Lawman who's gun fires 6 different bullets. It's a series that should've been in 2000AD - you can never have enough Kevin O'Neill!
£100

Those Dredd volumes look beautiful, very professional. I'm fascinated by the competing versions of Bogie Man Chinatoon, it must be the only time a story has been redrawn by another artist, and both saw print. Apologies if this is chatted about elsewhere. I love the Cam Kennedy pages in Toxic but I can't remember if the story was completed in there. I'd love to research a behind-the-scenes film on Toxic! So many stories stopped suddenly without warning. Really makes you appreciate 2000ad.

If you'd like to see Mick McMahon's MutoManiac, the missing framing pages of Pat Mills & Kevin O'Neill's Marshal Law's prologue, a rare Arthur Ranson story or The Bogie Man by Cam Kennedy instead of Robin Smith, look no further.
2 hardcover bound, green foil blocked signed volumes, eBay £100.
Think of it as an Absolute Edition of Toxic! The Comic Throws Up!

I wasn't joking. Who knows what square shaped holes that giant chief judge shield's been hiding all these years? It would be just like Wagner to pick up a 40 year plot point!

I'm confused. Wasn't War on the Streets the last volume to come out? It was the 90th book issued? I assumed the volume number is the spine number. I have no knowledge of how these books are made but I'd assume Rebellion select & send the files over. I agree that much of the b&w reprint was sub-par. I wish they'd scan from the 80s Titan volumes but at £10 for 200+ pages it's not viable. The series was great fun, I try not to let the repro get me down!

I went. I'll only talk if Tharg says I can.

This slim volume reprints about 60 pages of the occult detective thriller is the american comic size format. The aged cover & graphic design set the tone a treat. I remember this thrill in the weekly prog, it felt like a dense, atmospheric piece probably closest in tone to Fatale by Sean Philips & Brubaker. I couldn't really follow it in the weekly, maybe there was a gap during its initial run or my memory's crap. As s graphic novel it's a stunner. It's the Hellblazer comic I always wanted but rarely got - truely horrible, addictive and grubby. The art is classy - Spot on storytelling with great faces & locations. I really hope Tharg gets round to ordering another series. Guy Adams makes every page count. I guess there's similarities with Absalom, but the tone is different enough make this distinctive. I think it's a modern classic!

Agreed - I'm guessing the Titan/Enceladus is the latest material to collect this storyline. Is there enough for a new Rob Williams volume?

Something horrible happens to the Hulk in the last couple of issues. Its gone from a good book to a great book. Wonder if Al Ewing has any plans for the 4th wall breaking She-Hulk. I don't know much Marvel continuity so apologies if she's temporaily dead, de-Hulked or in a parallel universe.

I'd love to see Ian Gibson back for 2000ad in any capacity. I'd love to imagine he's busy on a new cover for the inevitable collection of the re-coloured material, health permitting. I've loved his Dredd, Halo, Slade and always wished he'd done more Anderson, Tomb of the Judges was a cracker!
