An odd tangent, but wasn't their a Slaine newspaper strip at some point?

I dunno about Slaine itself, but Mills and Fabry did 'Scatha', which was very much in the style of Slaine.

Pick up a copy of the excellent (but now out of print) Beyond 2000AD by our friends at Hibernia.

Sort of. It was Slaine with the serial numbers filed off and called 'Scatha'. Gorgeous stuff.

Mills talks about it  here.

EDIT: gah, missed all the other replies! What a chump!
