Spines

[Leigh S]

I trust one of the spines will be printed on a glossy paper to contrast with the others on matt?

Now that is classy typography. Allow the designer to do what he/she wants and the result is beautifully elegant and cohesive.

Hah! I don't think you can hang that sort of cock-up on the designer!

More Spine porn please

I've just availed myself of the three Scarlet Traces paperbacks from Rebellion as my current copies of the earlier ones are all the smaller Dark Horse variety.

The recent squall of quality reprints Hellman of Hammer Force, The Spider, Karl the Viking also means a re-jigging of the  library shelves at Huff Mansion.

Will post spine pics if A) I can work out how the feck to do it now uploading is so complex, and B) I can be ersed.

On a separate note, I recently spread the joy of my Jock Prints all over Instagram, and there is a load of spine-age on show

Do they run through to the end of the sequence that was recently in the Prog? Quite tempted to grab these and get them bound…

1968. It is decades since Mars waged war on Earth, and the major nations have access to Martian-derived technology, but Britain is still recovering from Martian bombardment in the 1940s, when much of the south of England was destroyed. This was followed by the arrival in the 1950s of two million Venusians, seeking refuge from Martian occupation. Now, the Martians are on the attack, and Earth is seeking allies in Jupiter..

If Rebellion had given them the HC treatment they deserve I might have been tempted to do the same.  To be fair to Dark Horse, they did a cracking job.
