Last post by IndigoPrime - Today at 04:50:21 PMThe Al Ewing Mega Collection book is a really great collection. And he certainly had the tone down. But... he left. I mean, I'm sure he had good reasons, but his body of work is contained, finite and done. So, for me, while I enjoyed those tales, I'd place Niemand in a different space now. Not everything he writes land, but his hit rate for me is really impressive. And I hugely appreciate his seeming interesting and willingness in the smaller stories – not just massive epics or ongoing arcs designed to shake everything up.

Last post by GoGilesGo - Today at 04:24:01 PMThe original run of Fiends of the Eastern Front, which was otherwise tremendous, has a few of these very clunky Show AND Tell moments. This is one of the worst

Last post by Proudhuff - Today at 04:22:43 PMQuote from: AlexF on Today at 04:12:45 PMYou make a compelling case that he IS the best non-Wagner to write Dredd, he sure evokes the early-ish funny ones in ways that few others have, without getting bogged down in telling his own long-running mini-sagas (coughWillimasWyattCarrollcough).
Agreed, I would add 'current' to that sentence, as the Ale-Wing droid is still up there with the big W for me.

Last post by AlexF - Today at 04:12:45 PMMy own rough scribbles -and i'd really have to cehck this but as you say it's tricky! - put the Neimand Count at 138 episodes for 2000AD/Megazine/Specials. One day I'll have to read over the lot and write up a 'Heroes' entry for him.

General / Exposition Death Screams
Last post by Barrington Boots - Today at 03:05:07 PMBest thing shouted whilst being killed in this weeks Battle Action Force from 1986 that I read on my lunchbreak.
You don't really get these exposition death screams in the Prog anymore. Stuff like "The teeth - biting me in two! Aaargh!". Part of me misses how clunky and terrible they are. What's the best / worst you can remember?
The Men in Black - Naaaaaahhh! is ridiculous on many levels.
This frame also has a classic AIEEEEEEE
(Best death in the comic that week is Parsons in HMS Nightshade. It's a classic.)

Last post by Funt Solo - Today at 02:29:10 PMMaybe Glinner and Growling are lawyering up, buoyed by their recent culture war victories and looking to sue Rebellion?
