The Dredd story reminded me a little of the Steven Spielberg movie Duel - a thrilling chase with, as I recall (it's a long time since I've seen it), a somewhat anticlimactic ending.

Quote from: GordonR on 30 April, 2024, 02:12:02 PMWhen Pat got that private, marked confidential email from Matt telling him he was passing on any more Flesh stories and Pat immediately put it up on social media.....was that just the quarrel with Rebellion too?How do you know it was marked confidential?
Quote from: Richard on 30 April, 2024, 12:32:13 PMI don't know if Judge Urko means Mark or Pat, but I doubt that Matt Smith needs either of their help after successfully running 2000AD for 22 years now, during which time it has gone from strength to strength.And Pat has praised Cyber-Matt as "the best editor 2000AD has ever had", which presumably includes himself. His quarrel is with Rebellion.
Quote from: judgeurko on 23 April, 2024, 05:18:30 PMKind of. It's taking separate 2000AD strips and mashing them together. The Red Seas and Stickleback, Zombo and Harlem Heroes etc.Quote from: judgeurko on 19 April, 2024, 06:50:00 PMWho is Judge Alpha?Oh its just basically Elseworlds.
Quote from: Richard on 23 April, 2024, 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.
Quote from: Funt Solo on 20 April, 2024, 08:41:00 PMIt's Judge Urko, not Jesus Urko. As a letterer, I'd have thought your attention to detail would be better, Jim. New glasses, maybe?I remember Tom Frame saying at a con that one time when he was on a tight deadline, he managed to misspell his own name on a 2000AD credit card (the old handwritten Compu-73E type), writing it as Tom Frane.
