Well, your best bet is to buy the Necronauts solo outing rather than the Tharg's Terror Tales.... Then, if you ever decide you want A Love like Blood as well, you can pick up the Storming Heaven trade which contains A Love like Blood, Storming Heaven, From Grace and myriad other one-offs - a lot more bang for your buck.

Although, in the case of Storming Heaven, it's really more of a damp squib, than a bang.

Isn't Storming Heaven during Frazers Magenta era?

Necronauts is only 3 squid on the 2000ad shop. 

Does any one know if Tharg's Terror Tales Presents Necronauts and Love Like Blood has exactly the same Necronauts content?

Sounds like a plan.

As it is, I think the 'Necronauts' concept is just one whose time has/had come.

And if memory serves, in that other thread on this subject didn't Emperor list three or four other variations on the theme?

Indeed, I found two examples that were even closer to JMS' story than Necronauts:

And then another popped up:

And a fourth:

I imagine enough time has passed for a couple more to appear.
if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!
