@ Jim, really, an interrobang? Is it really such a shocking suggestion? 

Merely a logical escalation from your original inflammatory deployment of a question mark, a form of punctuation it has been conclusively proven can only be manufactured by state actors in laboratory conditions.

Luke Kirby HB area's first announced in the email newsletter, and the news then swiftly made its way here.

‽

It's comeback has been predicted from 2014 .. maybe this is the start of that ..

Well I read Nemesis Volume 3, but then again I have the phone book editions.  I have to agree that I feel Nemesis peaked round about the time of the Gothic Empire.  Afterwards the stories were a mixed bag, some really good, some middling.

Well when Luke Kirby came out weren't board members offered a chance to buy it first with a limited edition art thing (sorry I can't remember the word) or did I just find out about that on the forum?

Are you talking about the bookplate edition?  Certainly that was exclusive to the Rebellion shop, as were the previous bookplate editions and the current Charley's War bookplates (regrettable paperbacks as well, but hey ho ... ).  So there is an element of privilege for boarders but not exclusivity.  I guess if you frequent these boards you are more likely to hear about them quickly.  As I say, my first awareness was through the Thrillcast so there you go.

BTW:  I hear that there are some websites that are currently exploring weaponising other punctuation marks.  The '!' was weaponised by the Tories some time ago but there are rumours that parentheses, elipses and full stops might be as well.  This is your 45 minute warning.

I have been otherwise occupied of late so I haven't been keeping up to date on the prog or online.

I have a stack of progs, megs and assorted to go through when I have free time ..

I am taking your advice to heart and have spent the last 15 minutes trying to figure out why Eric Trump has created a video on this very issue:

Just a one off ..

If it was touted as a premium exclusive then it is a little disingenuous to then flog the surplus off.

Any product featuring the word 'exclusive' exists to benefit the vendor, not the consumer.

It's not uncommon to see an exclusive used as honey in a flytrap, and later sold off mainstream to squeeze the last bits of cash out of it.

I watched with excitement as my postie dumped a cardboard packet on the mat...!

But is was my reprint of JDMC #80 for the spine matching.

Yeash.

[robert_ellis]

Don't knock the reprint of 80! Happy to see the spine improved!

[Tomwe]

Don't knock the reprint of 80! Happy to see the spine improved!

for sure, Rob.

[IndigoPrime]

Nothing here. No JD reprint either.

Early post brings my sub box. Huzaah! Sketchbook included, bit skinnier than I anticipated. And no letter of apology or anything.
