The subject heading ("Extreme Diceman") says it all.

I've got the Torquemada one knocking about somewhere.

And wasn't Diceman (The Slaine one I think) the one and only time David Lloyd drew for 2000AD?
Worth a reprint for that alone.

It was (which was possibly going to be the shaky grounds on which I would interview him for 2000AD Review!).

The Torquemada one by Bryan Talbot is probably the best, though the Kev O'Neil Nemesis strip is pretty good, and John Ridgway's Diceman work was always lovely.

Slaine Gaming Book, released about the same time as Pat Mills and Hunt Emerson's You Are Maggie Thatcher.

There is a site where you can download the mags themselves. It is a site all about such roleplaying things. I've got the address on me home PC. I'll stick a link up later.

*ahem* from a selfish point of view, as I've just got all Diceman issues from ebay, I'd prefer something else to be printed, but for everyone else who wants it, I hope Tharg is listening!;-)

I doesn't work properly though: I tried playing the Judge Dredd one when I first started work here, and it's impossible to get past the last choice (no hyperlink).
