And I've read it!

Dredd
I think this would have been better as a prog length thrill. The twist at the end is nicely "Dredd universe" but, for me at least, the lead up is too long. I do like Mike's stuff though and hope he writes more for old Thargy

Samizdat Squad
This is coming along very nicely story wise. Nice art too, the landscape shots, the eery intro section and in particular the low camera angle behind the team running forward are good stuff.

Numbercruncher
Fantastic first episode, I have to say! The story's universe is nicely established, very quirky and draws you straight in. Now I've seen it with PJ's art, I can't imagine it any other way. Great work!

Insurrection
Very pleased with this too. Fantastic art complete with trademarked surface stippling effect. The shots of the judges rolling in yelling "Shoot to kill!" is very fine. The story, although part 2, is accessible even if you haven't read part 1.

The Darkest Star
First off, I'm very pleased this is bundled with the meg as I haven't read it before. Fascinating reading. Just a pity I've mentally filed it under "this is not canon in my books". Yes I know, even though it was in the prog. Didn't work for me I'm afraid story wise.

Interviews/articles
Good as always tbh, particularly the David Lloyd one.
