Giles Richards from the Guardian joins the book club to discuss the Wagner, Grant & Bolland classic Judge Death stories in the new Essentials collection. Picking a grail page will be tricky.

Andy Janes joined the book club at the Lawless convention to discuss the first IDW Cam Kennedy collection and to pick out some stories that demonstrate his mastery of the art.
Google told me later that there was a second volume, also out of print now.

Some bonus Battle Action with Paul Trimble from the Enniskillen comic festival. We discuss the new hardback special and avoid any spoilers. We also speculate about what might come next from the Treasury of British Comics.

Conrad and I are back in the film club to give our views on the two cinematic Dredd movies (we quite like them), and stick to the end to hear our quick spoiler free review of Thor:Love and Thunder.

The forum's very own Jim Campbell returns to the book club with the House of Daemon by Wagner and Grant, with the wonderful art of Ortiz in a Hibernia comics collection. We recorded this episode before the sad news of Alan Grant's death. This is another great comic from that golden age when Alan and John were writing just about everything in British comics.
