Books & Comics / Re: Charley's War reprints again?

Even though Pat Mills doesn't like the WWII stories, will these see collection as well?  Would seem a shame not to just for completion's sake!

The C&H racoon story is a tearjerker, but I'll raise you with the strip where he loses Hobbes - The panel where he calls out of his window 'whatever it is I did, I'm Sorry!' always makes me well up!

I know it's slightly off topic, but aren't the original Shanarra books supposed to be waay post apocalyptic stories?  I'm sure I read that once - or am I mad?

This game is a beauty!

I've got as far as the castle  - where the mad monks are lobbing burning rocks at you - and I'm enjoying every minute.

Best buy this year - my lovely Wii..!

The MOBO argument comes up all the time - I've not got the correct reference so I'll leave the names out until I can verfiy them, but a certain well known radio 1 presenter got himself into hot water for complaining about them after being invited to the ceremony - as he pointed out, if we held a Music Of White Origin awards, everyone would scream 'Racism!' - but not for the MOBO's?

Not to mention the uproar from past recipients of the awards when Joss Stone and Emimem were nominated.

Yay! to the Complete Nemesis book 3 - not long of a wait either!

Quick question  - where do the ABC warriors graphics 'fit' into the nemesis timeline?... anybody help on this?

those boys kicked off a HUGE stink at last year's Conflict event - goosestepping around the room is not a good idea it seems... lots of complaints later - they were asked nicely to pack up and go home IIRC...

General / Complete Nemesis Vol 3?
16 October, 2007, 06:20:08 PM
Hi all,

I've just finished vol two of the complete Nemesis - am I right in thinking we're now up to the colour issues? will these be printed in balck and white a la' the Marvel essentials? I'm not sure it would work given the somewhat murky look of some painted stuff....

There have been dark grumblings on some of the NIN boards that Tool will be opening for NIN on the next tour..... how true it is remains to be seen.

As for new material - MJK has said that he doesn't want another 5 year gap between albums.
