I've put in for a replacement, thanks. Bizarre how such an issue can occur really.

Oy. Sounds horrible John.

We're well to the south of England and surrounded by hills... but no street lights here, so it could be made out from the village at midnight:

Missed the Northern Lightshow last night - am still fending off my first COVID infection. A real smorgasbord of symptoms. Was not expecting to be covered in hives (days 1 and 2) have swelling in hands and feet (day 3) or today's skin sensitivity. It's like the 12 days of COVID. What will tomorrow bring. La Fink has it too, but hers is more boring.

Really love those submissions Hoagy. Great poses, expressions and colours 

Contents of Anderson NWO:



The intro says it contains 'the final multi-part Anderson strips' by Alan Grant, Dragon Blood and NWO. There's also Jordan Ramzy's Kitchen Nightmare.

Other stories - Undertow, Martyrs, Spa Day and The Dead Run.

My copy is missing the usual endsheets but only at the front of the book, and it's made a right mess of the opening page:



 

Anyone else seeing this?

Brain transplant?

His brain is very old. I prefer the biochip idea. Maybe someone did an imprint back when he was younger - after Necropolis?

That MC1 would be screwed without Dredd, even though he's ultimately largely responsible for the city being in bits?

How so (genuine question)?

(I agree with the first bit. I don't understand how he's ultimately largely responsible for the city being in bits)

Oh-ho maybe I should bring some running gear...

I hope to bump into you all. I've slightly madly got a T-shirt made with my avatar so I'll be wandering around looking like a deranged perfume advert. So I'll be easy to avoid, at least. Anyway I'm a proper Southerner, tall slim glasses-wearing nerdy type, middle of age. Look forward to meeting some fellow boarders.

Cool Beans. I'll defo look out for you.

 I'm proper northern (well from Merseyside and Sheffield so the south of proper northern) and look like a typical Sheffield Gammon (while promising I'm not a gammon and have much more liberal views!). Bald, middle aged and probably a little red of face by the time I arrive (though pasty and gray I'd imagine on Sunday if Saturday evening is as much fun as other cons I've attended!). Overweight of course too - but this is were the Sheffield comes in - but an inability to avoid middleclass outdoor excerise so infecting the middleclass parts of Sheffield mean there's hints I'm trying to do something about it... trying...

Cool! We can go for a run around Bristol!

^{Kidding. I'm kidding!}

Apes, I'm afraid will take longer.

Well y'know I can wait...

I already have one of your pages on my wall PJ, but you may well see me in your queue asking for a Noam Chimpsky 

Monkey's Drawn While-U-Wait - that's the PJ guarantee.

I'm going to take this at face value, in which case EXCELLENT, I'll be in that queue too!

If I say I think Noam's an ape, rather than a monkey, that's not going to help my chances for a sketch though, is it? So I definitely won't mention that. Nope.

Until recently it used to be around a fiver for pretty much anything, even if split across multiple deliveries. I think they've decided that's not possible anymore and have to charge more for multiple deliveries which is perfectly understandable. As you say, no problem with the packaging, which is always excellent.

Thanks for the reminder - Ordered Scarlet Traces 2, Anderson NWO and Hope on Forbidden Planet. Swingeing postage again, it has definitely gone up. Deffo want that Pat Mills Savage/Defoe book but not available as a preorder yet.
