No worries, DDD. Missed quite a few people as it happens. Hopefully we will get a  chance for a sit down and catch up a Lawless. Maybe we could record our episode about Judges there?

Three items from last weekend's Thought Bubble that might be of interest.

A copy of Blazer #1 with the signed tip-in card from Steve MacManus. This is to raise a few quid for MIND in memory of Dave Evans.

An A3 print for Jock and Scott Synder's new comic Book of Evil. I got this from Jock while I was getting him to sign another book I'm collecting signatures in. He signed in at the bottom in white ink. This is to raise a little bit for Cancer Research UK.

And finally a Judge Death sketch by Leigh Shepherd from Owen's Doodles for Dave stall. This has already raised money for the Survivors of Bereavement by Suicide charity (SOBS) and is up here to raise a little more.

Cheers, guys. Glad the detour into American comics hasn't gone down too badly.
Some more Slaine coming up next week

This year's subscriber gift is a 35x30cm colour print of Dave Gibbon's Worlds of 2000AD poster.
As ever this is a 100% for charity auction with free p&p so all the money goes to cancer research UK.
Make a bid or share on your socials if you can.
Thanks

Update.
Google sites archived the old sites system (!?!)

So I have re-published the text on their new system

The image files aren't there yet so I am slowly updating those and checking all the links as I go

And here is Colin's grail page by Massimo Belardinelli.
Listen in to episode 167 to hear why this page is so important to him.
