We always used "brown Trout" as euphemism for having a shit in our house.

Racialist.

For sure. Face hair is face hair.

Doc: ask Rebellion for a budget.

Mogz: not unless he comes to a bad end.

Cosh: you sick... Actually, maybe...

Alan Moore gets my vote to.
Will there be an awards ceremony?

Yes, a glittering gala event attended by towering figures in bearded history. You're organising it.

They could relaunch it, starting the numbering again at issue one. First issues tend to lead to a sales boost, so it would make good business sense.

One day, future generations will regard the removal of the sagging shelf as akin to the eradication of polio.

It's a great day for the human race.

I split up with my girlfriend yesterday. It had been on the cards for a while, but it was even tougher than I'd expected. No massive dramatic catalyst - things just hadn't been working for a long time and we both want very different things in life. The timing was utterly shit - I had hoped to put it off until the new year, but it just sort of came up during a conversation that wasn't quite heated enough to call an argument. Needless to say, I feel like a massive arsehole now. I hate upsetting people and this has broken her heart. I can be a real dick sometimes...

Oh dear. But it's better to be honest.

How could I forget Dante?

And Molcher, I thought your beard was inspired by McGruder's. 

The Canadian winter has led to me growing a beard for the first time in my life. It's insulation. Unexpectedly, I'm quite enjoying it.

I found myself thinking about beards in comics. I liked that big mess that Captain America grew that time he got fired by the US government, but generally beards look crap in US comics. They're hard to colour.

But what about 2000AD and the Meg? Can we draw up a list of the best face fuzz presented by the House of Tharg?

So far I've got:

Nick Stone, Meltdown Man (offset with an eyepatch, too!)

Judge Lopez (unfairly stigmatised by Old Stoney Face)

Judge Dredd (when drawn by Frank Miller)

There must be tons that I haven't thought of. Of course, the greatest beard among the droids must be on the majestic face ofMassimo Belardinelli.

Anyone want to pitch in?

Can I just reiterate Trouts sentiments? This thread is making me quite moist.

We need someone to kidnap Colin so we can go through his stuff.

Ain't no thread like a Who-fight thread.

Shut up, you dick!

(Disclaimer: Tordels is not a dick. He's a fanny.)

Not sure I want to repeat here what the print is.

Do I win this thread?

Tell us!

I loved it.

I loved it, too. It's the only US Dredd comic I've been tempted by and I haven't regretted it. Ewing Dredd is a joy to behold.

Hugs, mate.
