I'm getting the new Modesty Blaise collection and the new Adventures in the Rifle Brigade tpb.
I can heartily reccomend Angelfire, however, plus it's worth supporting a new independant British publisher just getting off the ground.

I concur - Angel Fire is good.
Some of those hard back classic dredd tales are so-oo seductive though...

' Don't 'pus' you?! '
Oh, I'm sorry, Byron, I just assumed that 'pus' was one of those words you keep making up - like pederasticism - and tried to help you out by using it myself. I shall know better for next time.

To get back on topic-I've picked up(well my I brought with my mum's money to save her having to trawl round comic and books shops) a few Fleetway Def. Edition that collect a load of Golden Age stories like Return of Rico (bit before?), Blood of Satanus (Bishop doesn't know what he's talking about), the "Dredd doubts" trilogy and other less famous stories. My glance through them suggest their pretty good although the colour's awful-McGrudder's black in some panels.
I've always got Essential X-Men Volume 5 and (fingers crossed) the Nikolai Dante, Sin Dex, Red Razors and Judgement Day Rebellion trades-
to explain my mum's asked me for an item for my brother to get me for Christmas. I've given her a list of four items hoping that she'll get me the other three (which she will, she's paranoid at the moment that I know all my presents).
Also get Angel Fire, its great. Ive got a review copy (meant to be advance but then the shit hit the fan and Ive been a nervous wreck for the past two months) and its ace. Review should follow soon. Also, I'd heartedly recommend Devlin Waugh: Swimming In Blood, the She-Hulk trade, any O-Men and finally William Hague's biography of William Pit the Younger*
Not exactly comics but a good read none the less
