Title: Hi there, fellow Earthlets!
Post by: Green Lynx on 10 March, 2022, 02:45:12 AM
Like many of you, I have been a fan of 2000 AD since childhood (I started reading in 1985) and have been reading on and off ever since. I live in Japan, so physical copies of the progs is a bit tricky so I'm a digital subscriber these days.

I'm really glad to finally join the community and I look forward to reading all the threads and getting to know you all!

Cheers!

Not so much for 2000 AD, but Judge Dredd is kinda popular among guys who have an eye for western comics :) Needless to say, my fellow ex-pats are aware of 2000 AD, but I'm always keen to extol the virtues of thrill-power to those who are yet to learn about it! (I often tell people that it's my biggest source of national pride - such an incredible anthology that is STILL going and on a WEEKLY basis at that!!)

Borags, Dude. Welcome to the thrillsylum!

Thank you!! The weekend is finally here, so I'm gonna read some progs, watch Future Shock! on blu-ray, and generally refill my thrill-power gauge!

Hello!
My big brother, who got me into the Prog in the first place, has lived in Japan for nearly 20 years. I don't think he reads the Prog any more but I send him the odd TPB for Xmas, when I am feeling generous with thbe postage fees...

Hi there!

You sound like a zarjaz younger brother! Would love it if my younger brothers sent me some goodies too, but yeah, the shipping ain't cheap!
