Amazing! Although, not sure how you spotted that one in the first place! ;-)

It was the two Tharg heads, they're a dead giveaway.

I just spotted this last week, hunting through some old progs.  Mike Dorey obviously had some "Blake's 7" photos in his reference file, as demonstrated by "Psi-Testers" in prog 408:

He actually gave it five terms (not including any of the four that we know)

I'm trying to imagine what they could be.  'Slightly peeved'?

He looks like Jughead in a Halloween mask.

Have you seen the news about the "Afterlife with Archie" series that's coming up?  It starts off like 'The Moses Incident' but with Hotdog instead of the boy.

Is Red Bull not an illegal stimulant?

No, Red Bull is still legal in the Big Meg - it's everywhere in the Dredd vs Death game.

Mike Perkins did a fantastic job.

Not to mention his other achievement, forever immortalised in poetry.  You know, that time when he ate 80 gherkins and pickled his internal workin's.

Mainly tomato, but sometimes he used HP source.

What is the thing that looks like a g string stretched over Captain America's shield?

Probably Slaine's shield, and Joe Pineapple's G-string?  Devyln Waugh's G-string?

It's dead/unconscious Stogie I feel sorriest for!  :(

Yep.  What's the white thing snaking in on the left behind Shakara's weapon.  Is it Ace Garp's scarf? And is that the High Rock grounded in the background (also on the left) beyond Dante's flintlock?

I like that cover.  They seem to be standing on the helmets of the more popular strips.  I can see a Judge helmet, Helm, Johnny Alpha's pointy hat, Hammerstein?  It looks more like they are standing on the skulls of the vanquished, rather than on the shoulders of giants.

Looks like a rather impressive anthology of one-offs and and also-rans.  I'm seeing The Visible Man, The Amazing Maze Dumoir, Xtnct, Tribal Memories for definite, and is the guy in the foreground Greysuit?  Is the sword-wielding guy from Telguuth, and who is the dame with the machine gun?

That's Homer the Barbarian. The girl with the gun is from Family. Foreground man is the Universal Soldier.  You can't quite make out the young girl from Life Cycle, the robot from Colony Earth, or Superbean....



I hadn't noticed the Skizz helmet in the pile before now, nor the 'dead' Stogie on Helm.  And is that Dante's rifle at the back?

It's disgusting, that's what it is!

My copy of Zenith arrived today too, but what should I find when I open it up?  The book, nestled snugly in protective bubble wrap, is also covered in thick spongy white pellets.

That's right - that sneery supercilious Betelguesian, the one whose diet consists soley of polystyrene cups, has covered it in Tharg poo.

Talk about disdain for your customers!

I'm in Sydney - but although I'm certainly interested in mine, I was hoping you might be able to give a blanket reply for all the board, e.g. all UK mainland & European orders despatched, Rest of World despatching through this week.
