Prog / Re: Prog 1476: Shadows & Frag....

And the alt:

It's a good prog, this one, starting as it does with a couple of corking covers.  Of course, I'm going to have to out and buy the two seperate variants, so Tharg - the plastic cups are on me.

Judge Dredd: PF
Laughed my ass off at this (pun intended).  *WHIRRRR* "Unnnh!"  (The Judge could have been anyone, but it wasn't about him.)

Synnamon
This is the first time I've seen a story crawl out of the prog on it's belly.  Synnamon is not a character.  There is no story arc.  Three pages of solid exposition doth not a thrill make.  

The "nnnnaaaghhh!" panel is supposed to be showing me what, exactly?  She's climbing up the wall?  What's the point of the Justice Department iconography anyway?  Saving grace:  Cromwell's codpiece raises a titter.

ABC Warriors: The Shadow Warriors
I'm going to need to dig out the back progs as I have no idea who any of the shadow warriors are, except for Doc Maniacus, who killed some people in a hospital once.

This is generally great fun, if a bit abstract at times.  The bit with the sledgehammer shells eating up Steelhorn just doesn't look good, and the bottom of the last two pages seems over-layered.

I love how the first six bullets are explained in great detail and then it just says "Warmonger uses bunker busters" and let's the art do the talking.

Tharg missed an obvious trick here, though.  Swap the order of things around a bit, and it would have been possible to have the 5-bullet spread sitting in the centre pages.  C'mon, Tharg - play the game.

The Ten Seconders: The American Dream
I thought Jen was a young girl, from the first few episodes - but now she appears to be a young woman - how long did that Atlantic crossing take, anyway?

"I love everyone here...yes...I think I'm a bit pissed".  Another quote of the prog.

Am I right in thinking that Mr Stretch has a crush on Jen, and is about to become insanely jealous?

Harry Kipling (Deceased)
Woohoo!  Fun, imaginative, about as far removed from Bix Bloody Barton as you can get, but still awfully British - this is wonderful.  Give them extra oil rations, Tharg, me olde mucker, or ye're an atomic ponce!

It looks like the Re:Action figure.

The picture's not too good.

So am I, Usher.  Are we in the same union, perchance?

A bunch of grapes or widgeons, King Trout, but a crowd of people.

Aye - someone left me one of those - I was confused for a moment as to why a robot Dr Who was asking me to go to the pub.

I was just joking.  It's difficult to get across in type.  That, and jokes are supposed to be funny.

Anyway - I think ukdane is on the money - it'll be to do with how the data is splurged, rather than any deliberate mischief.

It's not as if electronic publishing really counts, is it?

Did you know in advance of posting that nobody would take the writer's word for it?

I am constantly nude, yes.  (As anyone who went to the last Moniaive festival can attest to.)

I have created a suit out of duplicate back progs, which I use for weddings and job interviews.

My wardrobe holds the lot - in stacks of 200, on two seperate shelves - and there's still room for some shirts.  A cupboard above holds all the Megazines.

I have a very small flat.

If you completely fill your walls with pinned up (in bags, natch) progs, that should delay the eventual collapse of your abode.

It can frighten non-scrots, though.
