Um...Black Siddha?

Oh, Christ...

Thanks! Can't say I'm thrilled with more Mills, especially as it's said to be in the same vein as Finn but it could always be worse. Think we've got about 20 books sussed out now, Including Dan Dare and Mazeworld?

I really hope tharg being there means we get a tharg book i really do not want to be cucked out of one twice xd

also the teeny mek appears to be part of the image with the last extentions stuff on it so i would not expect another robohunter book

I make it 24!

• Age Of The Wolf
• Mean Team + Bad City Blue
• Al's Baby
• Movie Dredd
• Armoured Gideon
• Zenith * 2
• Slaine + ?
• Dan Dare * 3
• Mazeworld
• Shako + Hook Jaw/Ant Wars?
• Harlem Heroes * 2
• Proteus Vex
• Lawless * 2
• Kingmaker
• Durham Red (Worley + Apocrypha)
• Scarlet Traces * 2
• Harry On The High Rock + ?
• Black Siddha

That's assuming they continue Lawless where the MC left off and bring it up to date - otherwise add another book there.

Given they've opened the creator owned floodgates I'll be surprised if we don't see Buttonman take up another 2 books to take us to 26.

Imagine if the Harry 20 volume gathered other prison-based thrills.
Stalag 666!
Dead Men Walking!

I sense another classic volume coming...

Zenith would be 4 wouldn't it?

Zenith would be 4 wouldn't it?

2 Phases per volume for 2 volumes. There's nowhere near enough material for 4!

sintec - Are all those 24 books on your list confirmed? Are we sure to be getting 'Mazeworld', 'Proteus Vex' and 'Kingmaker'?

Proteus Vex and Kingmaker are on the spine image, so they're a certainty. Mazeworld is 'probably' due, but they haven't 100% confirmed it.

As Dark Jimbo said most of them are on the recently revealed spine art (there's a link a page or so back on this thread I think). People asked about Mazeworld and Dan Dare on the FB group and got positive but not definite replies (can't remember the exact weasel words used) so those 4 volumes are less certain.

Hoping we'll get a Survival Geeks volume, it's the perfect page count and would be a fine addition to the collection.

Is Black Siddha that bad? I was quite looking forward to this, I always enjoy Simon's art.

I actually liked Black Siddha and you will never go wrong with Simon's art

I think the first series is excellent - one of Pat's best-ever. The wheels do start to come off a little after that, but I'd still recommend it over other Pat creations like Finn or Greysuit. And needless to say, Simon's art is superlative.

[IndigoPrime]

It's been a long time since I read it, but I recall it being mostly OK and nudging a space above and below that at various points. The entire thing was bolstered by the art, of course. As a cherry picker, though, it's a no from me. Still, I'd have much preferred it to Greysuit in the original run. And I'd re-read Black Siddha 50 times over having to go back and deal with Finn again.
