We've no plans to. If it does ever happen then it's probably two years away at the very least (not even sure we *could* do paperbacks this thick).

Thanks for the answers.

Good news (apart from having to wait nearly two years).

how many volumes will there be?

2016 is a long wait, but I still have to get my hands one Vol 1, so it'll work out I think. Looks like a great collection.

I'm really looking forward to Vol 2, as it'll be pretty much all new material for me! Vol 1 is absolutely gorgeous, stonking etc, but I've either read or already own 95% of it. Always on the lookout for Dredd I've missed - roll on 2016!

There are approx 3568 daily strips to reprint. If further volumes have the same dimensions as Vol 1, with 2 strips to a page, that's nearly 1800 pages. If further volumes match, say, the 5 strips to a page seen in the Meg, then that comes down to just over 700 pages.

so there would be 6 volumes if the current format / size is continued. Lordy, that's a lot of material

Why do we have to wait sooooooo long for volume 2? Desperate to get my grubby mitts on it!

If vol 1 was anything to go by then just sourcing the files for every story and getting the best possible copy/scan of each will take most of that time!

I am really loving Volume 1. I read two or three each night before I lay my head.d to rest.

How do you manage to stop at just one or two? Or are you talking about Alien Tongues and Pyro?
