Megazine / Meg420 Down on the farm

« on: 19 May, 2020, 01:43:33 PM »

Crickey, no-one else getting their Megazine?
Great cover by PJ, what's not like?I
Dredd, nice Dredd, unusually he misses a couple of clues but there's a good twist. Artwork find by PJ, thought the tank bust could have been more dramatic, but otherwise great work.

Revlon ends well and a nice twist and artwork exceptional.
Blunt continues in the elected vein

Text stuff is promo for Smash and Rob Williams Old Haunts, both of which look interesting.
There's also an interview with Jake Lynch and his Harry Heaton work.
The promo Zombie Army plods to the finish line, hopefully the game is more interesting.
Lawless, does the usual brand job, and a nice message at the end
Advert for next month says The Vigilant finale will be in the Megazine, that should save a big or two.

No letters page Buttman!

Megazine / Meg 416: Welcome to the Dead War!

« on: 14 January, 2020, 06:08:00 PM »

Well that Dredd is good, and good use of the bird's eye POV, other wise lots of promo stuff, future Rebellion comis, GN and games.
The ten pages of the Game tie-in seem a bit flabby, the Grennie-droid could have told all that in two pages and have us panting for more, Mrs Mill's laddie tells it like it is about Crisis, while lawless takes us right back to the outback.Ten pages of great stuff.
A solid and weighty Megazine.

General / Day of Dredd 2020

« on: 07 November, 2019, 12:23:55 PM »

Never too early to ask but:

'Following Rebellion’s hugely successful ‘Day of Dredd’ in September, which reached over 20 million individual social media accounts and saw international sales spike, during which comic stores, libraries and creators celebrated the cultural impact of the fan-favourite character Judge Dredd',

My attempts to get something organised for this year's 2019 DofD fell at the final furlong as displays and events are planned months if not years in advance, so question would be, given the success of Sept 2019, will there be a 2020 DofD, and if so what date?

Anyone have the ear of TMO?

Books & Comics / Trees by Warren Ellis and Jason Howard

« on: 13 September, 2019, 11:47:59 AM »

picked this up this week... all good if a little thin on the page count.

https://www.bleedingcool.com/2019/08/16/5-pages-from-warren-ellis-and-jason-howards-trees-three-fates-1/scaled-trees1/

No sign or a end to the overall story arc though.

Prog / Prog 2144 War Crimes and Retribution

« on: 10 August, 2019, 02:36:03 PM »

A great selection of classic 2K stories and art, in a cover that will annoy parents everywhere.

Damage Report: Cyber-Matt finally gets Windows, or did I miss something?
Droid Life returns

Dredd: wow! And I thought those boots were Dredd’s! I know this is in the spoilers section, but I hope no-one reveals that last page, did not either of those two things to happen well done the Williams/Weston droids, extra synth-lube alround!

IP continues to mix scale and backstories and brings in one of histories real nasties.

Anderson: the set up is complete, it’s all a bit too Misty for me.

Thistlebone climaxes and won’t please everyone

Jaegir returns and is set up perfectly in five pages, General Kovert has a hint of Cam Kennedy’s style about him, no bad thing, looking forward to this series playing out over the next month or so, just wish it would be around longer!

Thang promises Sin/Dex next week and a jumping on prog at the end of September.

Looks like some unusual suspects from the droids showing up in Kendal this year, seriously considering this one:
