Seems really overpriced tbh, are they reprinting the colour version?

There's some talk that the exact cut-off date is actually June 1969.
If this is correct then Rebellion might own Cat Girl too.
But not Spellbinder!!
Dang.

Does rebellion own crisis (or revolver) now?
Pretty sure these were creator-owned (Rogan Gosh was later published by DC Comics)
They can't be purely creator owned, otherwise Tharg wouldn't have been able to tempt Garth Ennis into writing Helter Skelter in exchange for the publishing rights to Troubled Souls*. Maybe DC did the same with Rogan Gosh.
Pat Mills says he's been trying unsuccessfully for years to convince whoever held the publishing rights to Third World War to reprint them - which obviously wouldn't have been a problem if the strip was entirely creator owned.
* Which Green Bonce had to buy specially from Egmont.

While Case Files 12 used the original prog art films for those episodes, the Hachette book has used the remastered pages that Liam Sharp did for the 2006 Rebellion release of 'The [then] Complete PJ Maybe'. Relevant excerpt taken from his huuuuuuge afterword -
For this edition I've had the luxury of being able to remaster most of my colour pages digitally. I hope you enjoy the tweaks. I can't change the flaws in the drawings - there's only so much you can do! - but the blacks are blacker and the colours, sharper. There are a few additional elements of photoshop trickery and generally it's closer to how I intended they should look like at the time.

I just got the PJ Maybe book, really disappointing (;_;)
Are all these Mega Collections so dodgy in quality? what's up with the contrast and paneling?
No idea what that emoticon is trying to convey... (if it's 'disappointment' then... is it needed?) Anyway...
This is the first negative comment I've heard on the PJ book. Small chance you have a dodgy printing? They do happen.

Guess getting my eldest daughter into Star Wars and comics hasn't gone down too well either. Still working on tooth.
