I won't miss it either, but it will still be a great shame that the experiment failed, as it's imperative that Rebellion continues to sell comics to a new generation of British comics are to have a long-term future.

Agree that "Regened" was a dubious choice of title.

Just saw Poor Things and it's brilliant, weird, and beautiful.

Quote from: Funt Amenable to Change on 07 March, 2024, 08:47:29 PMDredd hangs his head in shame.
That was such a powerful image.

SPOILER WARNING for Judge Dredd: Origins (because it's in the latest Complete Case Files)

Origins ended with Fargo pleading with Dredd to end the system he had created, but Dredd didn't do anything about it then and it wasn't followed up on. Then at the end of Day of Chaos it was obvious to everyone that Justice Dept had failed to protect the city. If neither of those events prompted Dredd to change his views, I'm not sure what else would.

I've just seen a trailer for Alex Garland's new film Civil War, and it looks brilliant. He's writer and director. Out in Spring. Looking forward to seeing that.

I'm with IndigoPrime on the Tharg stories.

If Matt Smith remains editor for three more years, which seems likely, then he will have been Tharg for 25 of the prog's 50 years!

I'm very impressed with that cover by Alex Ronald; I hope Tharg gets him in a story soon.

I think I liked Dredd this week more than you did!

Thistlebone is good, I think this third series is the strongest of them.

In Deadworld I can't even remember who Jessica is. Maybe that's my own fault, although it has been four years since the last full series of this thrill. Still fantastic art though.

SPOILER: In Full Tilt Boogie, I'm not sure how Tee got out of that predicament, it feels a bit like "... and in a single bound he was free" territory to me. I like this series though so I'll just assume I'm being dense and go with it.

Four and a half out of five for me this week.

85 biologically (2146 minus 2061).

Born in 2066 at the artificially-advanced biological age of five.

It's a salutary lesson for Judge Beeny, that's for sure.

QuoteIt was made by his production company, DNA Films.
This comment prompted me to look up DNA Films on Companies House, and I found that the director of DNA Films, Andrew MacDonald, founded a new company called 28 Years Later Ltd only last month. Since DNA Films also made 28 Days Later and 28 Weeks Later, this is a good sign.

QuoteAnyway, as has been mentioned upthread, a cranial exit wound in Dreddworld doesn't necessarily mean death.
Not in 1978, sure. But today, that would be pretty silly.
