Just a bomb - (part of) the Halls of Justice will be blown up by the muties, destroying Fargo's body - because that dialogue about his body lying in state there was mighty conspicous by its inclusion. This sad event prompts a guilty Dredd to think more about his heritage and look further into his... wait for it... ORIGINS.

Never read anything with McGruder, Silver or Volt. I looooooved Cal, though. And Griffin and Goodman both had an idefinable something that made me like them.

I'd agree with Mechanix, on condition that I could swap Jock for Cam Kennedy.

Would you happen to mean the 'These are the droids...' one?

Can someone please explain what the hell this is? I hear it everywhere, and I've come to assume it's some sort of quote from something, simply because people always say it as though it means something, with a knowing smirk and unecessary emphasis, then all fall about laughing as though it was the best thing ever uttered by human lips.

I've tried to decode it looking for some sort of wordplay, or double meaning if you pronounce it a certain way, but there doesn't seme to be one, so I'm back to the quote idea. What the hell's it from?

Ba-dum tish.

Comedy gold, lads.

Paul - Can I assume Omnvistascope #1 is also available? Nothing on the site suggested anything to the contrary...

I'd have to agree with Star Wars. It's quite frankly an abomination, that would be embarrassing even if it was only a little-known B-movie series. The fact that it's one of the 'greatest motion picture series of all time' makes me want to get on my knees and weep.

I got no dissapointments. It was sheer class, better than I expected.

Save the big PR hypes (are there any?!) for the 30th anniversary, and more importantly, the end of year bumper progs, which are far more likely to encourage new readers to join the Good Ship Tharg.

Pretty much just as you said - alternatively you can use the HTML address Photobucket gives you (it gives you three in total for each pic) and insert that anywhere among the text, which allows you to have text before and after the pic, and also to post more than one pic per post. The only limitation with the URL address is that you get one pic per post only.

I hate to put a damper on either side of the argument, but as I always do on these threads, I feel compelled to have to say - Why don't some of us actually read it first so we know exactly what we're talking about?

Belly from Asylum is looming behind Wulf and Johnny, and Otto Sump gets a namecheck. Heh, and I can't believe no-one's mentioned Tharg. :-)
