REPRINT Abelard Snazz

[zippy]

I think a great reprint for the megazine would be the Abelard Snazz stories.  They were excellent but as the 5 stories are spread over a year they are always differcult to find in my back issues.

If you don't know Abelard Snazz had a double deckered brain and was the most intelligent person in the universe, very Hitch Hiker's Guide like stories

Get's my vote!
There were 6 stories covering 7 progs between December 1980 to January 1983.

Oh yes. A big fat book of all the Alan Moore one offs would be quite nice in fact.

[Tu-plang]

I think I heard about one of those coming soon actually.  A reprint of "Alan Moore's Shocking Futures" and "Alan Moore's Twisted Times" all in one.  Or maybe just the two seperate books again.

I was just about to say that..

My vote goes for Abelard Snazz as well (same reasons, and even though I've only just re-read them). They were some of the few strips I remembered from first time around with 2000AD.

Excellent stuff.

PS/ For anyone who's keeping count, I'm now about a year behind everyone else, having read from prog 4 through to the mid-1200s so far. I'm wondering what to do with myself when I reach the end (my partner says I should just start all over again at prog 4, but I suspect I'll rest awhile first).

Yeah I'm ok, got nabed by a bunch of Organ Leggers but all they did was nick a bit of stuffing

How many Abeland Snazz stories were there
I remember
 1. Creating Robot Police, Criminals and Innocents
 2. Creating a luck machine
 3. Advising the Gods
 4. Creating giant robot tenis players
 5. Getting tried by the Universe Judges

The giant rubic cube, the ultimate punishment.

I'd suggest placing yourself in a Thrill-containment facility immediately - you're a menace to the populace!

You still have the annuals and summer specials to go as well.

[roystead]

A TCU? That's a but extreme.

I mean, simply because I've absorbed 25 years' worth of Thrill Power (progs, specials, annuals, megazines and all) in the space of nine months is no reason to suspect any funting side-effects, is it?

(I read all the annuals, specials, megazines & DC Dredds as I went along - though I'm still awaiting receipt of the missing 20 "Lawman of the Future" comics as I write)

albert snazz
we have to see his return. he was one of those really great ones wasnt he.
have not read those in years, damn they where good.
what a great one off reprint they would make. now and then just slipped in as a filler.

zippy
i dont get it? you have been allowed to spend nine months reading 2000ad.

such partners are a rare and wonderful find. i have trouble finding a couple hours to read a weekly prog.

now thats a truly spectular hobby.
my respect to you.
