Forthcoming Thrills - 2023

[Molch-R]

A previous draft of the release very clearly had the word 'hardcover' in it, no idea where that disappeared to. But in answer to your question: it's a hardcover.

[wedgeski]

Splendid. I'll be interested in the page size. I bought the individual colourised editions and everything seemed very small.

[Max Headroom]

Thanks for confirming, Molch-R. A definite purchase for me.

But in answer to your question: it's a hardcover.

And the page size is the same as a bus shelter ad, right?

[Dash Decent]

Certainly, when you separate them out from the book and lay them out side by side in a large grid-like fashion.

Is there any other way to read a book?

YES!! Exactly what I've been asking for, thank you Tharg! Really hoping this is hardback, same as the Starlord years.

Also grateful to have the Case Files trucking along, always a highlight.

interesting with the Stront Vol 2

IT seems to have Journey Into Hell and Portrait in it making it bigger than Vol 1?  When I first ssaw it I assumed just Galaxy Killers, Hell and some special stories would make a similar sized volume to 1?
