It isn't a draft, it's the final copy - Jock's art is prior to casting so you'll see interesting differences in what some characters look like. It isn't all the same angles that an artist may have used if he'd done the art after the film. I should stress the 'may'.

Mine arrived today, via Yodel.

Very nice looking from what I saw.

I expect my copy will take another week or two to reach the states, looking forward to it though!

Not that it ever was a question if I where to buy it or not. Will order it quite soon. Will make for a nice companion piece to the film :)

Got an email the other day from FP to inform me that due to a fuck-up, the hardback edition I was expecting will actually be a paperback. Arsebiscuits.
Dan Dare will return for a new adventure soon, Earthlets!

And my HB copy arrived this morning!  :thumbsup:  (Number 108/500 for those that are interested..)

Even a cursory thumb through reveals this is a stunning look book, and looks set to become a bit of a favourite. I'll not read it just yet, but its jumped to the next in line in my reading pile. Or maybe it'll be a case of 'sod the reading pile'...

This was the book that many of us wished for, but maybe doubted we'd actually get to see, so a big thank you to Rebellion, Jock, and of course Alex, for getting it all together and making it happen.

Great news Spikes, still hopeful that the one I ordered through forbiddenplanet.co.uk will come through (also had the email from FP.com like Noisybast)

Otherwise I'll be trying to get one on the aftermarket at a no doubt inflated price :(

At least now their website finally doesn't list this as HC. It was very cheap.....

Sounds like a bad time all round Noisy  :(

Did they have the Hard cover or just the paperback?

wonder if it would be worth them releasing the jock bits (coloured) as a stand alone gn tie in?

I seem to recall Jock considering it to be more of an internal document and not being finished enough to be used as a standalone comic. (Or something along those lines)

I think colouring it and releasing it as a comic might be trying to turn it into something it wasn't really designed to be.
