oh god we are getting two idw things shoved into the meg from now on aren't we? :(

Looks like it but The Year One stuff is not too bad it at least has art from Simon Coleby

Are the two IDW stories just reprints from before? I have them both in collected form and remember from reading a long time ago that 'Year One' was pretty good and 'Mega-City 2' not so great.

I don't know if it's intentional, but it's the very first thing I immediately thought of!

Yes, seeing the thumb my first thought was she should be carrying a towel.

Quite possibly, if the rights have reverted or they're cheap. I hope it won't be everything. Year One is good, but I recall MC-2 was incomprehensible.

We should've put that on the cover of the trade paperback collection.

I haven't read the IDW stuff before, so I don't mind it being added as bonus content. Even if I don't like it, complaining about it would be like complaining about a DVD extra.
AIEEEEEE! It's the...THING from the HELL PLANET!

Have just pre-ordered the slipcase edition of 'Halo Jones' (released in January). At £50 plus postage it is not cheap, but I think it is a worthwhile investment for one of 2000ad's most celebrated epics. I welcome more stories in this deluxe format.

Fifty quid?
Ouch.
Heat or eat or Halo Jones?
Why can't everybody just, y'know, be friends and everything? ... and uh ... And love each other!

Sorry, buggered up the post above.

Was saying that much as I love a nice deluxe hardback, yet another Halo Jones collection -especially at a price point as high as fifty quid - isn't going to be for me.

Finally starting work on the third and final part of the Penitent Man/Honest Man Dredd storyline.

Should we open a sweepstake on what adjective the Man is going to be this time?

Has it been confirmed that 'Tomb of Terror' will definitely not be included in the 'Complete Dice Man'? It would be great if it could be.
