Really good prog

Honestly only two complaints and they are minor. The derailing of the original ending to nemesis and the fact i want more david roach guess i'll just have to wait for the mega collection version of engram or dr who
I'm sure if you ask Tharg very nicely he'll invite me back!

Which cover to go for problem solved. I won't be able to get to the local thrill merchant this week so it'll be the signing day version for me. But that's in five sleeps time dammit!

My subscription prog arrived on Saturday with the Burnham cover but knowing I couldn't be sure which cover I would get I'd already pre-ordered both variants from the 2000AD shop to guarantee I'd get the Robinson one. Got home yesterday evening to find an unexpected envelope waiting for me containing said variants from Tharg's new distributors. So, what to do with the extra Burnham? Well, I like to leave any spare copies of Tharg's illustrious organ I get in a place where their thrill-power might deliver the most benefit, namely the works' canteen:

(Admittedly I made sure to remove the Cliff Robinson poster first to have a copy of that to display at home.  :P)

Not much to add, except to say what a totally stonking Prog that was!

Brilliant stories, amazing art and I'm already hungry for more!
Bring on Prog 2001!  :)

Top prog. Congratulations to all involved! I delegated the production of several newspapers in western Canada to leave work early so I could get into it.

Some of my highlights:

That Dredd/Alpha reluctant bromance,
Middenface in every panel he graces,
Spooky Rogue Trooper written so well,
Returning artists whose work I love, especially O'Neill, who is clearly unhinged,
Continuity-twisting in an entertaining way (calm down, people, because it doesn't matter),
The supercool Edsel,
The return of Spikes Harvey Rotten,
And blasphemy. Sheer, blatant, glorious blasphemy.

Plus lots of other stuff I'll remember in a minute and wish I'd mentioned.

Such a special comic.

Thank you.

ALL HAIL DEPUTY CHIEF JUDGE FISH!

The digital Prog landed this morning and includes both regular covers. I'm curious though; the Robinson cover is a wraparound, but what's on the back page of the physical progs with the Burnham cover?

Nipped into Eason's this morning to pick it up, and they only had last weeks prog on display!

Hopefully they've got it by lunchtime, otherwise i'm just going to have to go to Forbidden Planet.

Grrrrrr!!!

No doubt they'll have updated their stock by this evening.
Interestingly, I did ask Big Bang Comics to keep me a copy of both covers, and they informed me that the 'news stand' edition already sold out on pre-order.

I'll be shopping in Easons myself later for one.

Cheers for the response David!

Hopefully it won't be too long 'till Tharg come a calling!  :)
Yes- I really loved doing the strip and I'm  more than happy to do more believe me.

I can clearly remember coming back to Brit-cit from the land of spandex a few years back and being left open mouthed by your art David. A genuine moment of comic book awe.

I totally agree with the other learned members. Nobody needs to leave the house these days.
