I've been waiting for this to happen. Our Sean went and bought a complete set of Battle Action Force and has no doubt locked himself in a room with nothing but said comics and a torch.

Foolish boy. The Mighty Tharg has warned repeatedly of the dangers of Thrill Power Overload, but alas, these earthlets just can't get enough of the stuff. Your only hope now is to subscribe to 2000AD.

You were right about "Charley's War". It was great. Too bad I neither have the beginning or the ending, but... the really cool story was that "Joe Two Beans". I'm amazed that a European writer can peg a Western Plains Native American mindset so well! Wow! (Kind'a reminds me of Spirit, from G.I. Joe!)

Good news on the Charley's War front, a new set of reprints are being published in October!

As for 2000AD, I believe DC have just started publishing reprints in the US.

You could always get some crayons...

I might have a dabble with Photoshop on some scans at some point.

Actually, it's funny that you mention that! There are a few of the comics from Jonesy that I received that had a few "colorful additions". Nothing major, but I will replace them at some point! :wink:
