This one book a year release pattern is killing me! We'll be still going in 2030!

Thanks! Red seas had passed me by somehow, so I'll check that out.

Brink too. I read Lawless and loved that, so I am quite the Dan fan.

Thank you for the link too!

Hi there. Bore da, even.

I read The Out this year. It was amazing. Will there be more?
Anything else like this out there?

Also, lately ive been looking for comics/stories on ships/pirates. Any recommendations there?!

Thanks

Button man! Lovely! Now just to find a way to get it into the house without the Mrs seeing it...

Never heard of Mazeworld, but as a Grant fan, I'll pick that up I think.

I see FPI has listed 2000 AD UC 144 as 'discontinued'. I'm assuming that's a cock-up somewhere. I really don't want to have to order from Hachette...

The recent Stickleback volume came back into stock recently on the Hachette site. It seemed to be unavailable from FP very quickly after it first came out. Anyhow I ordered it direct from Hachette along with a couple of other books and they came in reasonable time, well packaged in some reasonably rugged cardboard IIRC. Perhaps they've got their act together...

My last three Hachette orders have been accurate and painless. Its been refreshing.

Have a look in the off topic folder where dust goes to gather I think it's called

A lot of the photobucket images wouldn't load for me- some amazing figures and items on there!

Was hoping for some book shelves!

I've recently moved in with girlfriend and tiny baby, and I miss no longer looking at bookshelves.

If anyone wants to post their Dredd collections, bookshelves, statues, prints... or anything, I'd love to see!

Always interested to see how people organise.
(Sorry if this is posted elsewhere!)

It's out of my price range. Im devastated! Can't I pay £5 a month?!

Probably not the best introduction for an 9yo, or maybe it was.

I was ten when I first started paying attention to the prog. Things that stuck in the mind were the naked corpses piling up on the conveyor belt at Resyk in The Fink,

Oddly, one of the things that stuck with me was the Resyk line too. Though it wasn't the Fink story, but one of my cousin's coloured 90s progs. I remember a Perp getting cut to pieces on the Resyk line, that stuck with me.

It'll be interesting to read all the '90s progs once i get round to them in the CCF

I'll be interested in what you read after case files. I've sort of wondered "what's next" since finishing them. I wish they could get another 10 out so I'm not so far behind!

Congrats! Maybe read Al's Baby. Not Wagner's best, but a manual on how to not bring up a nipper!

Quite the genius idea. And thank you. Very happy with the small one. Managed to trick the Mrs into naming her a variation of a certain Psi judge... she has no idea 

Hoping to get someone to talk about Johnny Alpha in real life in a few years!

Thanks for all the recommendations and comments!

I've just had a baby, so I'm looking to not start anything that's more than a few books, or just a single graphic novel- and you've given me plenty to look out for!

It's hard to know the cadence of the Rebellion S/D hardcovers, since we're only up to the second one. However, if you already have the Hachette books, you wouldn't need the Rebellion ones beyond the first, unless your aim is to replace the Hachette volumes.

FWIW, Top Dog lurks in various reprint volumes. Your best bet would be Restricted Files 3, which compiles a bunch of annual/special strips. Other options would duplicate Case Files material, such as Hachette's Dredd Mega Collection Judgement Day volume (issue 25/vol 37), and the 1993 Hamlyn softback.

(If you don't have the Restricted Files, the second and third volumes in particular are great. The fourth one is ropey, since it ends up in Dredd's worst era, and the first is an oddball, because writers were still getting to grips with the character. It looks like #3 is OOP, but it does rock up on eBay every now and again.)

The plan is to replace the hachette ones. I have all of those, except the durham red one.

I'm on the lookout for case files 8 and restricted files 2, they're not easy to come by.

I have the Judgement Day crossover, and a few various Dredd hachette books that aren't in the case files.

I wish I had stuck with case files from the start, I got excited with hachette as it had a larger variety easily available.

Any other Wagner books I should own? I've been a fan of Grant since shadow of the bat, but not read a lot of Wagner's stuff (save for a history of violence) outside of JD and SD.

Thanks for all the info folks! Not too much more to find, should keep me busy a bit longer!

The novels sporadically appear on ebay so I will keep an eye out.

Are the SD search & destroy hardcover coming out roughly one a year?

I wish the Dredd case files weren't so far behind! I have some hachette books, a few random books from the years but I like my collection! (Also, someone has run off with my csse file vol 8. How wude.)

Wikipedia's article on Strontium Dog has a complete list of Jonny Alpha's stories. Evans the Fist never got a solo story I'm afraid.

There's a new Case File volume out in a couple of weeks. There are also plenty of graphic novels from the last 20 years.

I wasn't sure if the Wiki had everything, thank you.

Yes, excited for the next case files- have read Origins, Total war, a handful of the Hachette books so I'm not totally out of tune with Dredd post 2000, but I certainly could do with catching up!
