Re: Battle/War Picture Library - Issue ID

I'm curious where AI is getting the synopsis of the comics. I'll have to check it out myself some time.

I have 4 of those


BPL 12. Blood on the sand. This is about the LRDG.

BPL 47. The burning sands. Does end up in a rocky pass. NCO and CO form a bond and like the life of fighting in the dessert ...

Re: Best Comic Merger

I don't know if it would have been a good move but why was Eagle not merged into 2000ad?

Re: Not renewing my subscription.

I just subscribed and just got my first set of issues. I read them when I was young and love the artwork and covers, but I can see them building up in my to read pile. I'm in Australia and they cost $4.95 to buy at the newsagents. By subscribing I am getting them at about $2.90. I Agree, I don't ...

Super Mages for boys

These are two I have seen. The Mantracker one I have and is a reprint from Spike ( from memory ). Would be keen to see the cover of Dennis & Gnasher issue

That attached file contains 544 entries. Is that the same file?

Starhawk?

Hi Captain,

I just picked up a bunch of lat Victor issues. And Issue 1441 from 1 October 1988 contains a Starhawk story. It finishes with a 'The End' and the centre pages talk of three new stories next week. 1442 doesn?t have any Starhawk. I didn't see a mention of it on your site.

More Covers and Profiles

I think you are looking for this scan which is from Hotspur and Crunch 1060, page 4 of the Starhawk story.

Hornet Comics

I watched the Lion 1 - 100 auction with interest, that was great value when compared to ?102 for the Feb 1970 issues.

Brisey you're not a scanner are you?

Vulcan Mini-Page

I would love to see the Vulcan mini comics that were in the Valiant and Vulcan merge. I have the valiant issues but the Vulcan pull-out mini comics are long gone.

Old Garth Ennis Interview

While it must have been around for some time I just found this old interview with Garth Ennis that was very interesting. http://www.thepunishercomics.com/artists/garth_ennis/garth_ennis.htm

My interest in British comics must be related to my lack of interest in US Superhero comics. Ennis puts this ...

Spurious Ebay items

Captain Storm I have to disagree with what you have said.

I believe his auction description describes very well what he is selling and I can't see where he is trying to mislead any potential buyers. I can see that he has sold the list twice and can see one positive feedback for it. Most of his ...

I've only had good experiences with 26pigs. But remember it is like ebay in that you will be dealing with the seller and not someone from 26pigs.

Collecting Long runs

I'm into full sets and long runs and I usually don't read any until I have a decent run. I have a full set of 2000ad and of Eagle ( the 1982 version ). I thought I had a full set of Battle but on checking recently I'm missing 1 issue ( 10 July 1982 if anyone can help ). Space is a problem also ...
