The Best Of 2000AD FOC Today, Not Raising Prices For British Readers
You may recall in the Before Times™ before the pandemic, Rebellion was set to launch a new series The Best Of 2000AD, and even had a 2020 Free Comic Book Day edition to promote everything. But then real life caught up with dystopian fiction, and the project was put on hold. But that was then. Now Rebellion is putting the series out again from September, with a UK FOC date of today as a last chance for comic shops to order it – American shops have until the 5th of August. But especially for British shops, it may be worth pointing out that it can be ordered in pounds, not those filthy dollars which are suddenly worth far more and pushing American comic book prices up 7% this month with hardly any warning.
The Best Of 2000AD – and the rest of the 2000AD, Judge Dredd Magazine and the IPC collection line, remain in pounds sterling, which might make for a more affordable option for comic book companies and readers. Here is the full creative line-up for the first issue. It is especially poignant as Alan Grant passed away this week.
- JUDGE DREDD MUTIE BLOCK, John Wagner, Chris Blythe, Kev Walker, Annie Parkhouse
- THE BALLAD OF HALO JONES: BOOK ONE Alan Moore, Ian Gibson, Barbara Nosenzo, Steve Potter
- BRINK: BOOK ONE, PART ONE Dan Abnett, INJ Culbard, Simon Bowland
- JUDGE DREDD: MUTIE BLOCK John Wagner, Kev Walker, Chris Blythe, Annie Parkhouse
- ANDERSON, PSI DIVISION: SHAMBALLA Alan Grant, Arthur Ranson, Steve Potter
- D.R. & QUINCH'S AGONY PAGE, Jamie Delano & Alan Davis, Alan Davis, Mark Farmer, Steve Potter
- JUDGE DREDD: SPOCK'S MOCK CHOCS Alan Grant, Brendan McCarthy & Jamie Hewlett, Tom Frame
- CRITICAL ESSAY: HIDDEN KINGDOM, HIDDEN CLASSIC Adam Karenina Sherif
- STRONTIUM DOG: THE SAD CASE John Wagner, Carlose Ezquerra, Tom Frame
