I see that a new edition of 'ABC Warriors: The Black Hole' was released today and suppose that this will include the new scans and improved repro that featured in the Hachette book. I would have much preferred a 'Mek Files volume 5' though...

Wonder what the repro on 'Father Earth' will be like? Did Rebellion ever get hold of some new scans for this story? Previous editions were not great.

Is this 'Joe Pineapples: Tin Man' Pat Mills' swansong for 2000ad? I cannot remember if he said that he was potentially open to returning to the comic to complete his unfinished stories??

Why was this piece of art censored? It doesn't seem that extreme to me.

Have pre-ordered my copy and will be very pleased to own the entire saga in deluxe hardback. I just wish that they had taken just a little bit more care with some of the repro and included the colour sections from the early Progs. Still, pretty damn good.

Slight confusion - Is 'Shift presents: Spacewarp' the same material as 'Spacewarp 1'? If it is the same contents; what's the deal here? (Also, what happened to 'Spacewarp 2'?)

Mean Machine Angel wins hands down in my opinion.

Also keen to get this and read the entire story. Hope they include the extra Deadlock material that was contained in the Hachette Partworks editions.

Is the only difference between the standard hardcover and the webshop exclusive version the A2 poster? Seems like quite a big price jump?

Am I right in thinking it just artwork contained in this and not any 'proper' storylines?

I must agree with Indigo - 'The Red Seas' really was excellent. Ian Edginton is a most accomplished scribe.

I have just received my copy of 'Grey Area' volume 2 and the first things to say are that it looks good, is quite a large volume and contains everything thus far in print. Looking forward to reading this! One minor query I have is that one of the stories - 'Shoot To Kill' - I can find no record of. In the book it is listed as being in Prog 2122, but I am pretty sure that issue features a different tale and I can find no mention of 'Shoot To Kill' in Barney's listing of all the Grey Area stories. Does anyone know where this mysterious 5-pager first originated??

I'm not so sure that removing the logos, title and credit boxes is a printing error so much as new policy for the graphic novels team. However, I do agree that it was better when they retained them and I do doubt that they will come back.

Forgot to ask - does Defoe volume 2 include 'Frankensteiner'?

Sad that there will be no complete 'The Order' or 'Defoe', but am still hoping for another 'Stickleback' volume in the next extension. Wondering also how much of what's left of 'Grey Area' will make it in?
