I'll be there in spirit.

Have an awesome time, chaps!

I never heard anything about actors images being a problem with Doomlord.
Why I didn't do the photo strips at that time was that they were too difficult to reproduce properly. That was nearly 20 years ago(!!) and technology has moved on and would now reproduce reasonably well. I did try a subsequent collection but it didn't happen.
Dan Dare, from what I understand, John and Pat own the rights to the Return of the Mekon story. It is a pity that its not reprinted, it has some of the finest art, and the story's not too shabby either!

Very true - that early Dare stuff is really good

Forbidden Planet were always ok with me.

A place in Space sometimes ballsed up my order.

Comic Biz were, in my experience, absolutely terrible.

[The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare (2024)]

The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare (2024)

A close relative of SISU, in many ways - especially in the Tarantino-aping and general cartoony killings (of which there an astounding amount).

An odd one - I thoroughly enjoyed it but afterwards found out the many things that were left out or changed for no real reason, I can tell.

I should read the book.

But, anyway, still recommended but with a lot of caveats (Maybe it's best to see it as some sort of alternate reality version of what actually happened?)

Thanks for the reminder, guys - just ordered the Anderson volume.

Am I right in thinking this will have Alan Grant's last ever Anderson work in it?

I'm unfeasibly excited that we're getting both iterations of 80s Joe.

John Cooper did a LOT of the AF stuff (this was why he moved from Johnny Red, alas) and it's going to great seeing it again in a nice format,

What's in Anderson Psi Div N.W.O. ?

Terry Moore is great and the second best Moore

Holy shit, that is appalling.

I 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.

I guess, after Predator Vs Wolverine, this was a no-brainer.

Right on, chaps.

Let's all be nice to each other.
