Hi all boarders,I've just decided I'm going to try and track down all the progs I gave away in my youth...which is loads!
I gave up reading at the Mark Millar/Robo-hunter stage and started again when Dredd/Sin City story started.As the ones in between seem to be the easiest for me to get at the moment I was wondering if there were any great stories I may have missed and if anyone could point me in the right direction.

P.S. Also theres an old story I partially remember about a guy with a beard escaping a VR prison.All I know is he jumped over someones head and choked them with a chain,anyone any idea what it was called?
Hmm, just pretend I wrote something witty eh?

House of Usher

The thing with the beard, the chain and the VR prison sounds awful, and if I were you I probably wouldn't start there...
STRIKE !!!

House of Usher

Apparently the first Robo-hunter story by Mark Millar was in 1991.

The archive index will probablyhelp you locate some good stories you missed out on:

Well done for jumping off at the start off a particularly bleak run.

But you missed:

Mean Machine: Travels With Muh Shrink, 7 episodes, progs 730-736 (May to June 1991). Story by John Wagner, art by Richard Elson.

And the 1993 Summer Offensive Progs 842-849: Maniac 5, Big Dave, Slaughterbowl, Really and Truly, ans some Judge Dredd epic called Inferno.

There was also Canon Fodder: Book I, 7 episodes, progs 861-867 (Nov. to Dec. 1993). Story by Mark Millar, art by Chris Weston.
Book II, 8 episodes, progs 980-987 (Feb. to Apr. 1996). Story by "Kek-W" (Nigel Long), art by Chris Weston.


Does this help?

This might also be useful for seeing what you missed.

It's an excel spreadsheet saved as html, and the first two sheets are a failed experiment that I haven't removed, so ignore them!
At the bottom there are tabs - click on the "2000AD" tab (or the "Star Lord" or "Megazine" tabs) for At-a-glance magic.

Mr D

I'm actually quite taken aback by that, now, how was that done, I wonder?

Satanist

Thankyou all,especially Oddboy.
Now there,s a man who takes his comic storage seriously.That spreadsheet was truly a work of art (and I do accounts)!

Cheers,I'm going to buy some progs after work and read tonight.

SHAKARA!
