Rogue Trooper: Volume 1
Quote
The battle-scarred planet of Nu Earth is the site of an epic conflict between the Southers and the Norts. Its atmosphere poisoned by chemical weapons, no one can survive on this hellworld without the aid of breathing apparatus – no one, that is, apart from the Genetic Infantrymen: cloned soldiers bred for war. The last of these G.I.s is Rogue Trooper – and he's gone AWOL to find the traitor that sold out his comrades!

30- SLAINE VOL 2 Dragonheist; Time Killer; Battle of Clontarf

Pretty much tallies with existing Rebellion books. Slaine Vol 1 is due in April.

How have I missed that there are multiple volumes of 'covers galleries' as part of the collection? Maybe I'm being blind, but I don't see them referred to even as part of the premium subscription. I want them!

Where did that turn up? I knew about the last Subscriber gift, which is a sketchbook or something, but this really is something else!!?

Not that I've seen! I'm sure when the Marvel one extended they trumpeted the new spine as it featured new characters etc. Still baffled by the lack of information on the extension.

larger format Mazeworld sounds like a winner, especially since it's unlikely to make it into the Hachette series any time soon at 120pgs.

Wasn't Mazeworld 3 series of 60pp each? that's 180pp by my maths...
Thank you Dave #mathsFail

Guess I'll reconsider that purchase after all.

My first double-dip is here, but with SMS having provided rescanned artwork for the Black Hole segments its not entirely crazy to be buying!

Oh that sounds interesting, where did you hear about that and are there any further details?
On this very thread. I then went digging and found some more details which I again posted.

QuoteABC Warriors: Volume 1

Released: 14/02/2018

Former war-droids created to fight the volgans, the atomic, bacterial and chemical chemical warfare-proof A.B.C. Warriors have been recruited to bring peace to the colony world of Mars. Led by Hammerstein, and comprising Mongrol, Deadlock, Blackblood, Joe Pineapples, Happy Shrapnel and 'The Mess', this band of battle-bots must tame the Red Planet, or die trying – spread the word!

(This assuming the strip gets only two volumes and not three, which would have contained everything and the Hogan run, too.)
this FB post details Dan Howard asking about this, getting referred to using DMs and then being answered privately that it's three Robo-Hunter books.

I too have found asking via DM will more likely get you the answer you seek.

Wow, Nem looks great.

Is the first Robo-Hunter volume Verdus and Day of the Droids? Volume must be on the hefty side if so.

Yup, those are the stories alright, plus seven pages of feature. Looks fantastic.

A good morning's post today!



oh wow. That really would have been worth the extra £20. Suitably impressed!

Got my books too, the repro in Robo-Hunter is fantastic and both books put the Transformers collection to shame with their page counts. Zarjaz!

Finally got a reply on FB regarding that print letter they sent out, even to non-premium subbers. Was easy to assume all would be fine but wanted to be sure.
I also had a bit of a rant about the lack of forthcoming details on the extension, to which the mods replied the extension would include the Dark Judges. With Dark Justice being part of the 2000AD collection, I suppose that points to the Tales Of Deadworld. Any other DJ stories left out so far?

Amusing how the Chopper volume takes a knife to the Ennis and (especially) McKenzie yarns.
Indeed, and Molcher's less than complimentary details of them in the back. Wonder if they will shove them back in for the extension somewhere.
