No sign of mine yet. Didn't realise until 2264 dropped through the door today....might have to go cap in hand to subs.

Likewise

Mine finally turned up yesterday. The mind boggles as to where it's been.

Will Simpson art has beat me, first time in 40 plus years that I’ve skipped this weeks judge dread strip, the cover is lovely but think he should stick to doing covers

Agreed. I'm binging on issues built up since Christmas and this is the first time I've skipped Dredd too. Just awful art...amateur even.

Nah...not had mine yet, but have got 2210 delivered yesterday.

Going to have to e.mail them as they're not taking calls at the moment.

Still no sign of my prog here in Birmingham but I have had 2129!

That's never happened before. Most odd.

If it doesn't show up on Monday, I'll have to call subscriptions.

Prog / Re: 40th Anniversary Prog. Probably a stupid question.

Mine's on the way....with the regular prog, the special and an SFX. That's taken care of this weekend's reading.

Current faves.....

Sabaton - The Last Stand (Totally awesome)
Anthrax - For All KIngs
Dream Theater - The Astonishing (trying to like it...really, I'm trying)

plus...a Leonard Cohen CD I had from a charity shop, the Complete Flanders and Swann and a ripped from Youtube copy of the Rutland Weekend Songbook (ERic Idle/Neil Innes.)

I have diverse tastes...

Prog / Re: Prog 1995 - Shoot on Psight!

« on: 22 August, 2016, 09:34:09 PM »

Yep, another damn good prog.

DREDD - Loving this story at the moment. I do think PJ may be (see what I did there?) going after Vienna though.

SCARLET TRACES - This is another fave of mine. Love the artwork and intriguing characters. Using the martian war machines is a little like the first League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen but they're so iconic, why not? (I Steampunk cosplay as a British Corporal in the Martina war so who am I to complain?)

3RILLERS - Nope, not a clue. Might have to re-read this one.

OUTLIER - Never warmed to this at all so I just look at the pretty pictures.

ANDERSON - Great story, less keen on the depiction of Anderson. Doesn't look like her at all in my 'umble opinion.

Roll on next week...but I have got the Summer Special to tide me over.

Dredd....excellent and yep, the last page is a doozy.

Buggered if I know whats going on in Slaine, it seems to have been two people hitting each other with axes for five weeks.

Brink will need a re-read but I love some of the idiosyncratic dialogue.

Black Shuck is pretty cool, everything Slaine isn't now imo.

Grey Area...hmm, not sure. I loved this when it started but it seems to have wandered too far from the original concept.

Still as always with 2000ad, if you don't like a story another one will be along in a few weeks time.
