I have to join my voice with those requesting a nice GN of all three runs.  

And I'm not talking those little thingys they give away with the meg these days (lovely though they are).  A nice fat, glossy papered and available in bookshops and comic shops for the unwary to accidentally stumble upon and fall in love with.

Although if they DO do that, is it possible for Thargs print-bots to remove the Dreddworld framing sequence that I remember with a cringe?  Utterly unnecessary and dreadful.

Thanks again everyone.  I don't intend leaving anytime soon.

Space Girls tried MY patience as well.  Although Jason Brashil (I think) was very good on it.  It just didn't go anywhere....

Hey Barry,

I'm kinda new here myself and everyone here's really welcoming.  Repeat after me: "I'll never leave Tharg again"

Thanks people, it's nice to be made so welcome.  

The fizz can go out of any relationship if you don't work at it.  So I'll be running a bath for Tharg now.  I've got high grade plastic cups and everything.... *wink*

This is quite typical of the gutter press.  Sadly such an accusation, even should it prove to be groundless and malicious (these things DO happen sadly) tends to provoke, at least among some members of society, a "no smoke without fire" response.  

Sadly we can't blame the hack journos for this, at least not exclusively.  Our courts need to be made aware of this imbalance of protection and legislation introduced to prevent such details being released.

I'm back.

I disappeared in about 2000 or so.  Many reasons.  A grumpy partner who complained whenever I sat down to my prog, patchy performance in the progs at the time, financial difficulties, failure of my thrill merchant to secure my prog despite having it on order.....  No.  I know there's no excuse.  And I'm *sorry* [sob sob]

But I did.  I went off to university as a mature student and, despite reading since the run up to Necropolis and having filled a good 80% of my back-prog gaps, I regretfully turned my back on Tharg.  I thought he wasn't appreciating me like he used to.  Each week was a disappointment (the weeks I could remember what was going on that is).  

Anyway, I've been dragged back to the fold by the new graphic novel editions - Origins, Brothers of the Blood, Stront phone books, the Dante and the ABCs.....  Fantastic stuff.  I'm completely hooked again.  And wouldn't you know it?  The weekly prog is totally on form - truly something of a golden age.  I know my pennance is to track down everything I've missed.  

Anyway, I'm sorry Tharg.  I'm sorry my fellow Squax.  I'll never leave your emerald embrace again.
