Good man, OP! As for looking forward, the January 2000AD/Megazine line-up looks strong as all Hell. The prog is nearly all new, with Hope and Kingmaker plus Kingdom and The Order which are also relatively new. And the Meg has Grant back on Anderson and new Lawless. I am a bit worried about Dredd because Carroll is back on both the progs and Meg and he's gonna be continuing his Texas City storyline, which I wasn't a fan of, but we'll see how it goes.

the first few chapters are a bit fast paced and really suited the weekly format better, it becomes much smoother around about chapter 5 though

I remember reading this in the Meg when I was 13? 14?

eyyy JA
Kingmaker has most of my intrest as does Grant Anderson.

i dug the Texas City stuff in spite of some major flaws in terms of continuity (the fuck happend to buell as SJS chief) and pacing and was heavy on coincidence, Thorn and Oswin were fucking great though. Daniel Crow had a good design to him as well.

Any idea what the Meg line up is

i first read parts of it in a few second hand copies, they were legit the best thing in those issues

A strong part about this is even the characters who dont get much to do in the original series like Thrax and Trucker, are really well characterised with what little dialogue they have, that they stand out really well.

...

...

Meg line-up is Anderson and Paul Marshall (I think) on Anderson, Carroll and Willsher on Dredd which I imagine is gonna tie with the Texas stuff, Abnett and Winslade on Lawless and probably some creator-owned stuff. There's more Realm of the Damned coming though I dunno how soon.

...

>*Anderson
Grant, Grant and Marshall on Anderson.

i think Realm will be a while, i asked the dude when he signed my copy and he said he was still writing it. And that was only about two months back

lawless is a nice suprise

You see the guy with the spade on his shoulder and the scars across his face? yeah thats stitches, you see him here in a single panel too.

He's kinda like the Slipknot of the group.


fuck forgot pick

>Grant, Grant and Marshall on Anderson.
sounds like a cheap porno
