I've been able to reverse that step many, many times. Sometimes breaking a mail mind you.

Don't blame me for the over-wordiness - blame El Bigote, the hombre likes to hear himself ramble and I'm not brave enough to tell him "callate", haha.

Thanks for the review.

Oh, quite. Pesky characters and their runaway mouths.

My review of Paragon issue 16 is on the usual blog...

A great issue.

Strong episodes of El Bigote, Bulldog and Jikan. Quirky episode of Spencer Nero. Nice epissode of Bludd and Xandi.

Review here

I haven't checked back often enough...

Blimey what a lovely Lawmaster (I prefer the smaller Eagle by the way).

Love the 'Anatomy of a Fatty'!

Yer builds are outstanding!

I agree 100% Brass Sun is branded & designed perfectly. (hence me using it as an example earlier.

I might do a blog post on 'Branding' soon.

Yeah that is when they tend to match up. Though some people with VERY dark hair do sometimes have matching beard n head.

But yeah, Dolman's fuzz mismatch is authentic & shows that the Blythe droid knows which crayons to pick.

2000AD Lite (European market ready title) wouldn't be renaming the Prog it would be as Colin suggests a new comic but called 2000AD not 'Kids Future Comic' as branding it 2000AD tells readers something.

OK in a comic example it tells them it isn't a cheap tie-in to a TV show, Film or Toy-line more than anything.

2000AD badge on Megazine isn't as obvious in UK as Brits should realise Dredd is from 2000AD but in US putting the 2000AD Badge on Brass Sun brands it. The US readers may never have heard of Brass Sun as they don't read the Prog. But they see a single subject comic & they see the 2000AD badge. They think 'that freaky Brit anthology is supposedly good but I like one story to a comic. I'll try this.' where as without the badge they may have ignored it in the crowds of comics.

Branding works.

Brilliant image still Steven!

Ok... no idea how the 4th page of cover breakdown got out of order... Thrillsuckers probably.

I mostly quoted my preview to show there weren't more than 30 pages of story per issue.

Page count breaks down as -
Story - 30
Ads -2 1 for digital comics principally the 2000AD iOs Ap & 1 for Dredd Files which shows lovely matching up spines (both come at breaks in pace)
Cover 0 (or 4 making it 36 pages)

Cover break down:
1 - front cover with 2000AD badge ident + Text Title in cog shape with credits
2 - inside front cover with extended credits &* copyright etc
3 - inside back cover with trailer for issue 2

Paper stock is superier, the cover card

The finish is excellent and really holds the colours perfect - episode titles & next prog comments are gone (obviously).

Go buy a paper copy everyone! Oh, mostly sold out...
