2000AD comics (Early 80's stuff)

[Biker]

Hi Folks, having a major downsize session of my books and such and was sorting out some magazines and found a stack of the old 2000AD comics.

They're dog-eared and a bit battered but in reasonably good condition and have been kept stored flat.

I have issues.. well actually they called Programs

166 June 1980
171 Aug 1980
172 Aug 1980

Then also have
389 Oct '84

and 393 in sequence to 406 from 24th Nov '84 to 23rd Feb '85

Then I have 2 Best of specials of these comics featuring a complete story of Strontium Dog with Durham Red. (episodes from Jan '87 reprinted in '93.)

Plus another stand alone Sci-fi special with Judge Dredd and other characters stories.

Now I know comics are pretty much a niche market but I thought I'd offer them up here for anyone wanting a trip down memory lane.

The block series I have has stories featuring
Stainless Steel Rat for President.
Nemisis the Warlock and the ABC warriors.
Rogue Trooper.
Judge Dredd (of course)
Halo Jones





that's 22 comics in all, stacks to about 1½ inches.

Yours for the princley sum of £15 inc P&P. Payment via paypal please.

Now I won't be able to post these out until at least May 10th when I'll be in the UK again, so if you really want them, sit on the payment until nearer the day and I'll get them to you then. Fair enough?

You can trust a Biker.

Rojaws anywhere? Classic stuff!

[mountainm]

If these sell I have boxes full of 'em.

Yup Rojaws is in with Nemisis in the episodes in series I have. That's the little wise-cracking robot with the jagged jaws yes?

Mike, I just had a fire this evening with a load of stuff off my book shelves and boxes of magazines. Seemed dumb to haul them about when I move next but I just couldn't bring myself to burn those.

I have a 6 month stack of Look & Learn comics from Jan to June 1961 which I am in two minds whether to burn or not. Seems criminal but what can you do? Can't be bothered going through ebay. Anyone want those?

Mine are all in boxes still in my Dads attic... he's desperate to shift 'em.... but I'm the same, I don't want him to bin them. My favourites were the Finks.

If anyone has any of the short lived Pat Mills Toxic! comic from the early 90's, I'm missing a couple

I gotta tell you, I think you're selling these a bit short. Ebay might be the way, you know. Still, if one of the brotherhood want them, get them!

I tried to get mine valued - they have to be mint to make money unless they're rare episodes but the web does provide the info. I remember Toxic. I also used to read "Scream"...

To be honest I thought I was selling them a bit pricey I was about to hit post when I changed the price to £15 from £10 Figured the posting would eat half the income otherwise.

Those Look and Learns I won't burn then, but ebay is such a drag for me, being here in France I can't sell things so easily on ebay.UK. If I do need to sell stuff I give it to my mate to do it and often they don't sell in the end, which is why I figured I'd offer them here.

I have four bundles of bike mags too. Remember theold Superbike comic with the noodie wimmin centrespread? Got the early 80's of tose including issue 1 Same with it's sister mag Custom Car. Got issue 1 of that as well. Got a stack of Back Street Heroes with issue 1 of that. Been hauling these around with me for decads and I am feeling that need to jetison stuff now. Thing is once you start binning things you get the itch to keep on going.

Sorry McCairney don't have any of those comics you mentioned. Got issues 1-23 of Ms Marvel from Marvel comics if that's any help. They're going to my niece if she wants 'em.

Biker & guys,

Thank you for a spot-on nostalgia trip! I'm 40 and remember with great fondness early 2000AD (Flesh, anyone?) and Look and Learn. Blimey, we'll be onto Look-In, Magpie and the test card soon....

[Biker]

As a kid when I used to get in from school or at sometime over a weekend and flipped the TV on and if I saw this image below I would actually GROAN! It meant that box in the corner was off duty from entertaining me. Funny how an image can bring back such a nostalgic glow.

Never did get into Look in and preferred Blue Peter to Magpie.

[shaggystu]

Stu , I'll give you a PM after I've read them.

cheers for that mate

Just googled another fave of mine, "button man" and found out Leonardo Di Caprio is going to play him in a new film...... best not f**k it up !

His role in 'Blood Diamond' suggests he may be able to pull it off but I reckon Leo needs another good 10+ years to get a good 'Mans Face' , he still sometimes looks like a teenager to me.

< Sorry Leo>

The departed is one brilliant film. I think he might pull it off yaknow

[Magentus]

There is a promising new Dredd film coming out soon (called Dredd), hopefully it will overshadow the damage stallone did to Ol' Stony Face.

[TeeDee]

The departed is one brilliant film. I think he might pull it off yaknow

Don't get me wrong I think he is currently and will be a really great actor ( watch him in 'Whats eating Gilbert Grape' for some young quality acting ) I just feel that he needs a few years to get a better face. In the same way I think Connery looks better now ( Hunt for Red October , Entrapment , The Rock ) than he did as a young 007.

I think the same will be true of Daniel Radcliffe , who was good in 'The lady in Black' but needs a few more years I think before he gets a role that will become him. ( at least he won't become a 'Mark Hamill' of the film world. )

[nigelbam]

I've just got to say seeing those 2000ADs bought back some great memories of my childhood - anyone remember the free 'bionic' stickers you got with issue 3?

God I used to love Rogue Trooper and Strontium Dog - Carlos Esquerra was by far the best artist they ever had....

And what do my kids read? Moshi Monsters and Club Penguin - it's just not the same I tell you!

I'd be very interested in tracking down any issues of 'Deadline' if any one remembers that?

Carlos Esquerra was by far the best artist they ever had....

I agree Carlos was brilliant with SD and Dredd, but what about Mike McMahon and Glenn Fabry's Slaine? Or Kevin O'Neills Nemesis?

What about Alan Davis' DR and Quinch?

More great artists than I can remember - Brian Bolland, Massimo Bellardinelli, Dave (Watchmen) Gibbons.
