100% in agreement, DarkJimbo - my all-time fave period of Slaine, hands down.

Shame about the RPG pages - not surprised, but still, that was huge fun back in the day and was looking forward to having another go!

Maybe I need to track down the Best of 2000ad monthlies!!

Hi all

After being away from the scene for a year due to illness, I was just wondering:

Are the issues showing per the Hatchette website as "out of stock" ever going to come back into print?

And, is it possible to subscribe per the website for more than one copy of each issue going forward (one copy for a friend?)

Any help much appreciated, chaps!

Volume #1 is a very nice looking book, and the first 6 volumes all look like must haves (DKR is one of them, which I've never owned in HC).

And they're including Paul Pope's fantastic Year 100, which is great news.

Just seen in Matt Smiths' intro to Nemesis vol. 2 that he states ABC Warriors The Black Hole is in volumes #23 and #24.
Yeah I read that too- makes sense as Mek Files 1&2 are off balance as far page length goes. Hope the second  ABC Warriors Book in the collection isn't too far off then.

That's dissapointing - I'd rather have had Meknificent Seven and Black Hole in seperate books. Particularly after the Mek Files, all I want is a matching hardback version of the Millsverse where I don't have to keep skipping backwards and forwards between volumes as I read.

Agreed.

Just seen in my local Smiths - issue #1 is out now.

(Had no idea it was due out, so a bit of a bat-bonus as I grabbed the latest 2000ad ult. coll. volume).

Saw TLJ last night.  Full disclosure: I hated TFA and didn't think much of Rogue One.

Sadly, I didn't like this one much more.

The above article hits the nail on the head for me, well worth reading.

I did like the porgs, though.  I'm not made of stone.

Woah! I have the three Mek Files books to date & did think reading those that his pages could have looked better. Got a link?

Sorry, Tomwe - it was a FB post that popped up (not sure how I got it, TBH) with a sample of just how bad the Mek Files repro of his art was, compared to the originals.

I understand that SMS got "some" of his original art back.  Hopefully, he got it all back!

Did anyone else see SMS's posts on FB re: getting ahold of his original ABC Warriors: Black Hole pages so they can be cleaned up for the Ult. Collection?

Ouch - just posted on another thread about this.  Serves me right.

Honestly, this looks a very nice set indeed.

Been meaning to catch up on Snyder (not that one)/Capullo's New52 run, and this looks the perfect way to do so.
