Thank you.

I remember the walkman thing as a big thing in school at the time and my teacher had to by one out of his own pocket. a hefty wedge in the early 1980's.

not sure I could go round schools would end up killing one of the cheeky kids if they gave me to much lip. lol

I would say that the tittle is a little misleading. You don't beat Dyslexia you have it all the time. I am a Full card carrying Dyslexic and reading comics was a way I learned to read. When I was a kid I used to look at books with mainly text and the letters in the text used to jump around on the pa...

I think there is some legal reason why the WWII story has not been re-printed but i could be wrong. I think the story starts pretty soon after the WWI sorry ended in battle. I only have a few issues with it in. It didn't last to long and we then went back to re-prints of the WWI story right up till...

I've read volumes 1 and 2 of the definitive collection recently released by Rebellion. I will of course be buying #3 shortly. I can't seem to find out how many episodes are printed in these 3 books as I'd hate to think I'd missed some! I don't believe that the WWII storyline is in volume 3 so I'll ...

I think this was definitely a great price for the seller! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Battle-Picture-Weekly-No-1-March-8th-1975-With-Free-Gift-Perfect-Condition/282905489286?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Battle-Picture-Weekly-No-2-March-15th-19...

Think someone could be trying to cash in on the new film release? Way to high though.

The intricacies of Charley's War pivoted a narrative on comics that was all but an alien process back in 1979. Not even 2000 AD, at this juncture, had yielded such a complex, ongoing series. After a long stint during the Battle of the Somme, Charley and the rest of his unit retired from the front f...

Afternoon All Last night I was doing a stock take for my web store and was looking at some copies of the New Eagle from 1982/83. As I do was having a little read along the way. I was hooked for a couple of hours. I forgot how much I like the Dan Dare strip that appeared in the early issues. The artw...

I don't think that Forbidden Planet has much choice even with there large buying clout. I think they still use Diamond as there suppliers I once looked into them when I was made redundant from my retail managers job with allsports. I wanted to sell comics on a market stall to get some income coming ...

Afternoon All The comics in the long boxes abacus was referring to in the Leicester Forbidden Planet are all Issues that they buy in bulk from the supplies some of them can be returned if they don't sell but other lines they can not return. This is why you have loads of copies of the same issues in ...

Have Just caught up on all of this great thread. I came to Battle in a round about way. I was a big fan of Charley's War and Johnny Red. but first started reading them in the Eagle in the late 80's early 90's after the 2 comics had merged. Both my favourite stories were both finished in the Eagle bu...

Have also brought a comic today lol.

first 3 hard back editions of Charley's War.
