Hi, newbie here

[Austin]

Hi I started reading 2000ad from the begining, I remember wearing my Dredd badge from issue 2 (if my memory is working)   

Been a long term fan, but got out of reading it in the early 90's

I recently found my 2000ad stuff in my folks house, so have been flicking through it then found the forum.

I needed some assistance getting up & running on here, so thanks to Julian for your help 

Ok I'm of to read some threads

Welcome Austin. There have been a few Dredd badges over the years, but the free gift in prog 2 was the biotronic stickers (which every self respecting 10 year old immediately stuck all over themselves, which is why they're so rare now!) Could've been 178 or 300 - here's ALL the cool stuff: http://www.2000ad.org/?zone=prog&page=freegifts. There's at least one more - a white plastic Dredd-shaped one that I've got (or did I get that somewhere else? Grud knows).

EDIT - aha - it was from the Meg 2.51. http://www.2000ad.org/?zone=prog&page=freegifts&choice=megazine

Ah yes I was thinking of the Dredd badge from prog 300 

You jogged my memory on the biotronic stickers and yes they would have been immediately stuck on myself, or on my brother, or my bedroom door, or my bike, or school book, to be honest even the dog is a possibility
