Last post by nxylas - Today at 06:22:05 PMQuote from: judgeurko on Today at 05:18:30 PMKind of. It's taking separate 2000AD strips and mashing them together.

Last post by nxylas - Today at 06:18:00 PMQuote from: Richard on Today at 05:50:43 PMI love the stories Pat Mills was writing for 2000AD in the 80s, but his work on Dan Dare for the new Eagle was, to put it as kindly as possible, not his best. I can live without it being reprinted.I don't know how much of it was really his work. It was adapted from a film treatment by him and John Wagner, and their names appear on the credits, but I know that at least the first episode was actually scripted by Barrie Tomlinson.

Last post by Richard - Today at 05:50:43 PMQuote from: Steve Green on 22 April, 2024, 09:16:21 PMNot the Photo-strips though, I vaguely remember something about model release forms could be an issue (not necessarily for Doomlord but in general)Really? The stories already been published, do you need to get a new model release form every time?

Would be great if Doomlord and Bloodfang could get another outing thought, they're brilliant. I say publish and be damned! (It worked for Zenith.)

Last post by karlos - Today at 04:37:01 PMI asked Pat Mills years ago (because that's how I roll) about reprints of his New Eagle Dan Dare stuff. Wish I could remember his exact wording but it was basically "it's not happening". I still live in hope, though.
Put me down as someone else who'd love to see The Computer Warrior get a reprint, though. It was batshit and I loved it.

All of that Rogue Trooper, and only two wraparounds! And the OG Rogue is relegated to the back cover of a lesser known special. Rectify this malfeasance, Thargnanimous, Bringer of Thrills!
Prog 687's Battlefield Blues (from 1990, by Will Simpson) gives us the OG Fr1day, before it all went a bit Pete Tong.

The Rogue Trooper Action Special's Future War (from 1996, by Dave Gibbons) is something of a hydra, with Fr1day rocking the front, and Venus Bluegenes providing covering fire. Poor old OG Rogue is a ghost in the sky. (Recently, in-comic, those three characters had all met, and OG RT had suffered perma-death.) It's a bit like that inside, with two Fr1day tales, one for Venus and a colored reprint of the first RT strip from prog 228.

Last post by IndigoPrime - Today at 03:29:15 PMYeah. Computer Warrior would be a nightmare now. Even though the games were mostly published by a smallish number of companies (mostly US Gold), the rights for those now would be all over the shop. Not least given that a number of them were arcade conversions owned by companies like Capcom and Sega. And some were film licenses (Ghostbusters; Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade) to further complicate matters.

Last post by Funt Solo - Today at 03:21:33 PMThat's probably from prog 600's The Power of the Gods - an oddity with six color pages and two in black and white.

Last post by The Monarch - Today at 02:50:24 PManother strip i would love to see reprinted but i bet thats even more of a legal ballache considering the amount of owners of the original games you would need to deal with as well as the ddc
