What's in Anderson Psi Div N.W.O. ?

I imagine Dreadnoughts is a cert, assuming the page count works. More broadly, exploring existing trades appears to be a good way to guess some of what's combing up, combined with completing (to whatever degree that's possible) existing strips.

On that latter point, I think the 2000 AD selection has done very well. It feels like a smartly curated set of books that cares about its fan base a whole lot more than other collections. It's perhaps unfair to gripe about the Marvel volumes (given the size of the catalogue compared to 2000 AD), but it was comparatively scattergun, leaving you with bits of arcs rather than the whole thing. And I recall the Transformers one bizarrely stopped not that long before it would have compiled the whole IDW run.

So hats off to Matt and whoever else has been making the decisions here. Although my straining bookshelves are perhaps a little less happy about all this.

Yeah I think the curation has largely been spot on. A few books I've not enjoyed but that's par for the course with something like this. It really is shaping up to be a comprehensive collection of the comic. Just wish I'd managed to be a bit more patient and not tried to fill in the gaps earlier on as I'm ending up with a few dupes now. Definitely being more cautious with buying new books from Rebellion at the moment to avoid anymore of that.

The Out seems like another plausible candidate. Think there's enough of that to fill a book.
