So as we enter the second half of the tourney energy is no doubt flagging. We're all getting a bit sick of this nonsense and wondering can it possibly keep up the excitement and is it all just a bit too ... BOOM!... Hell the first full week of the second half of the tourney reminds us quite why we're here with a BLISTERING start and to be frank the quality just keeps on coming. WOW if energy was flagging the ties this week will bring us right back into the zone

And the top thrills just keep coming this week. Lawless is another of the thrills I see as a flag bearer for the modern produce of Tharg's Thrill Orchard. For me one of the all time greats, and should be nailed on for a spot in the semis... but will it... unlikely there's a lot of personal bias in there. If it is one suspects it will need to overcome tougher draws than this

Just reply in this thread naming your favourite thrill of these two series at the beginning of your post (or use Bold tags so I can spot it easily) and say what you like about these wonderful stories after that.

Match ends early on the morning of Friday April 8th and the winner gets a place in Round 3 (of 9!!!).

What on Earth is ALL of this?

For those that need 'um and can be bothered to follow 'um there's some simple rules

Any questions, just ask as ever - and have FUN

When I die, I want to die like my grandfather who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.

Old age is the Lord's way of telling us to step aside for something new. Death's in case we didn't take the hint.

Lawless.

As for the semi finals - that's a big call. I guess we will see, but there are one or two I'd put ahead of it overall.

Oh yeah that semi's call is in my head canon of best thrills. I think it will struggle to get that far in reality... but you never know...

Lawless for sure. But not everyone reads the Meg so it will possibly suffer in later rounds because of that.

I never been able to get my head around people not reading the Meg, if they read the Prog. Other than cost.

Lawless is one of the best Dreddworld strips in existence – and one of my favourites in recent years out of anything 2000 AD puts out. It might for me struggle against some other strips, but against Samizdat Squad? Nope.

Lawless, yet another reason why Tharg needs to keep ahold of Dan Abnett for as long as the man has hands and a brain.

Particularly curel to Abnett should he lose out in a wrestling match with a flymo.


Keep Dan Abnett as long as he can type with is feet say I.

If I'd known it was harmless I would have killed it myself.
