I'm Hoping they've reprinted "The Sarge " In this volume with Mike Westerns artwork I haven't seen that in years but it deserves to be printed on quality paper.. I hope they bring out many volumes of this :) :inf:

I remember a story called Invasion that I really related to at the time set during the Falklands War as it was from a young boy's perspective. I always thought it was a bit controversial to set a story in that war so soon after the real life events.

Three years ago I got some missing BAF stuff via ebay, read it 18 months later... Invasion ended with a whimper.

Really need someone to print the whole Sarge/Rat Pack/Invasion/Fighting Mann/J Red backlog - or put online - and it better all bloody well be in best of battle. but as el Baroni has publicised, it's only really happened with some of the early Johnny Red stuff at thrupenny nightmare on the interweb front.

Oh for the good old days.
