Apologies, but due to unfortunate difficulties with shipments to the EU we are having to restrict sales of apparel until the charges and duty applicable have been resolved for that region. A warning will be going up on the site as soon as possible.

so this year's quarantine 3.0 will definitely have a thrill drought. disappointed. rigelian blasts all round.

I was a bit concerned to see this so checked and can confirm nothing has changed - the current print Prog and Meg continue to be exempt from P&P (if ordered within the first week (and first month) after publication).

This applies when they're ordered by themselves, if ordered with other physical products there will be a shipping charge but the Progs won’t be part of that consideration.

Hope that sets your mind at rest.

I retract my previous statement

How completely random - I know the fella on the receiving end of that shield, we're members of the same non-medieval reenactment group. We had a good laugh at this, it must be said.

Just posted this on our socials, thought I would be an idea to add on this thread too:

Subscribers: there continues to be huge postal disruption across the UK, which is delaying the arrival of subs issues of 2000 AD. Unfortunately, this is beyond our control. Please be patient during this challenging and unusual period. Our customer services droids are as frustrated as everyone by these delays, we know they’re “just” robots but please do not take your frustrations out on them! Tharg abides!

The CBZ files from the 2000 AD shop have been sent to Humble Bundle and they have uploaded them. Thanks to everyone who has helped so far. HB have said they do not apply any further compression to the files so, if distortion is still occurring, please let us know on this thread - with examples - so that we can get to the bottom of this. Cheers!

Some of the lettering in the Brink CBZ is nearly unreadable, very aliased. That's on a 12.9 iPad.

Could you possibly post examples, Robes? Or email them to press@2000AD.com - thanks!

AFAWK the files we supplied are fine, we're looking into these issues and are in discussion with HB about possible causes.

If you can see particularly egregious examples, please post them on this thread and I'll pass them along.

Huh, the files we sent have been checked and are fine - is it JUST the cbz files that are at issue here? If so, could someone redownload and have a look at them again for me?

There was talk of John Sanders writing his memoirs, so perhaps that will clear things up...

I'm going to step in at this point and provide a little guidance on this thread.

Anyone posting misinformation, conspiracy theories, or scare-stories from dodgy sources will have their posts removed and bans may be handed out for repeat offenders. If you don't see where the line is drawn by my previous sentence, don't post.

A lot of people are scared and under extraordinary stress, this is not the time to spread misinformation that will stoke panic or fear. Please practice a little empathy and think about the safety and well-being of other human beings.

Sorry you're having difficulties, Earthlet. Our webshop is currently struggling a bit under the unprecedented demand created by the free Case Files Vol.5 offer. But the droids are working to sort it.
