was i dreaming or did i see that zenith should have been reprinted oh say a year ago now. does anyone actually know when it is ever going to be printed??
The answer is probably. I belive that Grant Morrison and Rebellion/IPC are in legal dicsussions as to ownership rights for Zenith. There is als the complicated matter of old Hotspur, etc characters that appeared in the strip.
Personally Id love it to get reprinted, but the chances are currently slim.
Yer Slips
The fucker killed Billy Farmer
Killed him!
Fucker!
He's on the list
Oh yes
He's on it alright
Fucker!
Maybe it was a different Leopard Man
From another dimension
A different Earth
One where Aunt Joan got her hip operation
Yes
That's it!
It's all so clear
Inferno
Judy Janus
Crusade
They never happened
All a dream
An illusion
I feel much better now
Is that you mother?
You must excuse me
There are hundreds of copies of this book sitting in a warehouse somewhere, waiting for the legal bods to free them.
It ain't likely that'll ever happen though, more's the pity.
Oddboy do you know where this warehouse is?
Cue post from Captain Skank about how he got one before they realised they shouldn't be put out...
I don't see why the added characters should make any difference at all. They were for the large part unrecogniseable cameos of characters long since forgotten by the vast majority of their readers. This stuff happens in comics all the time.
As for the rest, good luck to Rebellion, hope they win.
"The fucker killed Billy Farmer"
Billy Farmer, The Leopard of Lime Street, killed in a poor man's half-arsed rip off of Crisis on Infinite Earths?
I think not...
baby puppy
Nope, not going to say it!!
Go on, say it. You know you want to, you little gloater

I heard that series 3 of red dwarf on dvd is out sometime this month and i was wondering if anyone has a definate date
I'm only missing book four of the original Titan series and dont remember the story from the progs at all. Very sad. Nor do I own the progs for phase 4. Even sadder.
Zenith is definitely top stuff though.
