meanwhile, perspective-wise, half the world dying in poverty, famine, and disease and here's a bunch of middle-aged men complaining violently about the contents of a comic?

True, but this is the place to do so. There are plenty of places to discuss world issues and I'm sure some boarders partake in those discussions too.

understood, world disasters aside, my point was about the ANGER in some of these posts.

it's a comic
is it really that important?

I'm outa here

Plus, it's not reprint, and from various comments by its creators, it's about as cheap.

exactly.

without cheap (cash-wise) interviews, reprints, and cut-price, non-Rebellion-licence strips, the Meg would be sunk. It would not be here any more.

this is not the golden era of 2000ad, money must be tight.

hats off to the editor for keeping a leaky boat afloat in such a professional manner.

my guess is they're holding out for the publicity of the new Dredd movie to boost sales.

I am a 2000AD whore. I'd buy Razzle if they had judge helmets on.

Actually... no, stop it.

SBT

they're not allowed to show helmets in Razzle

"How crap is Armitage?": the real origin of the name Armitage is "one who came from, or lived near the habitation of a hermit" but its most famous use here in the UK is the enamelled logo on millions of toilets "Armitage Shanks".

Do you think that was (perhaps subliminally) the title's original inspiration?
