I have changed the way I read both the Prog and the Meg in recent months. Partly to address this issue, partly driven by late delivery of some Progs.

I now do a re-read of previous episodes in a run and reading them in blocks of each story in turn, rather than a complete Prog or Meg, and then the next Prog or Meg.

It takes more time, but makes everything more understandable.

I subscribe digitally and I literally edit my comics so that all the stories are in sequence. Generally I wait until a jumping on point before sticking them all together and going back and reading them. I was struggling with the episodic format too until I did this, my memory these days can barely remember 5 mins ago let alone several weeks (or months), having young kids seems to have wrecked it! I've been really enjoying it, and the editing process is quite enjoyable in a nerdy collectors way too.

The Kingdom books appear to have been updated, they are better now but still poor quality unfortunately.

Some of the lettering in the Brink CBZ is nearly unreadable, very aliased. That's on a 12.9 iPad.

Could you possibly post examples, Robes? Or email them to press@2000AD.com - thanks!

I tried to send a couple of examples over but I did get a mail undeliverable back. One might have got through.

Finally received some issues after about half a year!  54 and 55, plus an email today specifically about customers in Ireland experiencing delays.

I don't know what is up with this collection but I haven't been charged since October and haven't had anything since no 50.  What is going on? To receive my last 8 copies I've had to badger them and got them in batches of 4. I had zero problems with the judge Dredd collection but this one has been constantly a problem.

I still haven't received anything since issue 46 and it's been mor than two weeks since they said they posted all the issues to catch me up.  Starting to feel pretty bummed by this.

I contacted them on Facebook and they are sending 47 - 50.  It's great that they react so quickly, but I don't understand why I don't seem to be receiving them normally anymore.  Everything has been fine through the Judge Deesd collection and the 2000ad collection until around issue 40 where they just seem to have stopped bothering to send them out.

For some reason my sub seems to have gone to shit.  I haven't had any problems up till now but I had to speak to the guys at Facebook to get my last issues sent out, I haven't received anything since issue 46, what should we be on now?

Is it £129 for the Horned God only?  This takes into account the 80% discount on that issue?  Because then I'm assuming they are going to earn 3000 - 4000 for the entire slain run, which doesn't seem bad to me considering the age of the comic.  Are my sums correct?

Hi guys, I still haven't received 43&44.  I can see a few we're waiting, but are others still waiting for these two?  Seems like a long time since I received a parcel.

Did everyone get a free copy of 2000ad ultimate collection issue 1?  Very nice, but I'm already subscribed!

For the record, I didn't opt out and I only received 19 and 20 a couple days ago.
