Title: Beyond 2000ad - buy it now
Post by: matty_ae on 12 November, 2013, 07:58:44 PM
Just read it from cover to cover in a couple of enjoyable hours.

This is a fantastic look at 2000ad/ipc related comics. A real highlight was a very complete review of the US reprints of 2000ad (explaining how exactly some of those bizarre covers and stretched interiors came about). There's very cool interviews about Strontium Dog's creation and a fantastically titled chapter 'How Starlord rescued 2000ad'.

I bought the digital download for £2.50 from Comicsy and this is the best fanzine i have read. It's more like missing chapters from Thrill Power Overload.

Now i've got to track down the issues of Legends of the Law where Dredd first meets Anderson. See that's what a great fanzine does - it realises there's stuff you still didnt know! Thanks MaryandDavid / Hibernia.
