Red queen is vol 146 and 288 pages
Wolfie smith is vol 148 and 256 pages - must include the tornado stories
Dan Dare is vol 169 and 304 pages

All pretty substantial volumes.

Woah! That's a lot of additional material on The Red Queen volume. Any thoughts on what else it might include?

I'll be interested in see what is in the Red Queen Dredd book. I'm assuming it's all previously collected stuff, but depending on page count maybe a few shorter stories that share the same writer and / or artist(s) might get snuck in?

If it's just stuff that's already in the Webstore Exclusive hardback collections, that one will be a skip for me.

Regicide + relevant strips from Nobody Apes The Law?

Anyone received the new Anderson volume yet? Any good?

I snapped up the second Lawless book for that reason. Surprised it's still in stock.


Hmmm. Now, do I gamble on waiting for Hope to order the Anderson volume with Scarlet Traces 2 and get free delivery?!?

Yikes. Hopefully the 3 books I ordered won't suffer a similar fate!

The sudden low print runs also happened earlier on during the original run. Made picking up Nikolai Dante volumes extremely tricky!

Surprisingly Hatchette have updated their website today and 173/175 is Scarlet Traces 2 and 174/180 is Anderson Psi Div:NWO.

Man, that's 3 in a row I could get! Nice to have some 'new' Anderson strips!

Anything coming up post Lawless? As the Hatchette website isn't even listing it that volume yet!

Hachette is shutting down all of the individual collection pages on Facebook. I would assume this means customer support will now be via the main Hachette partworks page.

Fair enough. They haven't updated the 2000ad page in 4 years!

Yes. The Dredd collection included Welcome to Badrock, Between Badrock and a Hard Place and Of Munce and Men from Welcome to Bedrock, and Long-Range War from Long-Range War.

This one is the rest of trade 2, all of trade 3 (Ashes to Ashes) and Boom Town from trade 4, but not Badrock Melody. (Trade 5, Ballots Over Badrock, is due out right at the end of July. I imagine it's unlikely there would be enough material for another Lawless in the UC before it ends – unless it does a Marvel and just continues.)

Thanks. I'm definitely missing the second half of Trade 2 in my collection!

I'm I right in remembering the first Lawless Dredd Collection finished half way through the equivalent TPB?

Finally the 5th volume is coming out! 2023 certainly felt like a barren year with no Lawless or even Brink TPBs for that matter!

Thanks. Look like I'll be placing an order for both as soon as Survival Geeks goes on sale!

How do people rate Proteus Vex and Survival Geeks?

Thanks for the tips IP.

My daughter loved the two Loshkin collections, but oddly wasn't so keen on Bunny V Monkey.

Also thinking of picking up Evil Emperor Penguin at some point.
