As ever conversation ITT is welcome. Makes it a lot easier on me.

Last time a vampire infestation in an aquatic prison led to a permanent breeding colony of vampires underwater in the Bahamas. What did they do? They built a vampire-hunting safari park over it of course.

There's surely no way this can go wrong.

And thanks for confirming the atom of Finland influence was deliberate. Hardcore trolling there.

I dunno about trolling but sure. I mean you see that in Jojo too.

Got Swimming in Blood signed and sketched by Phillips last year

Neat. It's pretty popular among fans, so I imagine as far as Megazine stuff sells it does alright for them.

I'm kinda interested in how people see this story vs. the first one if anyone'd like to share. Especially if you're reading either for the first time.

>>90691471
do you have download links for either of these?

Yeah should be able to post them at the end.

>>90691678
excellent, thank you.

I've got shitloads of Megazines up in the loft along with all my White Dwarves and Warhammer Monthly's. It felt really good when I rediscovered them a couple years back.

y'know, with a bit of tweaking this'd make a decent action/horror movie

Thanks for reading!

awesome, thanks for the nostalgia.

Fantastic. Thanks, OP.

I meant making a 2000AD comic not just a bit gay but super gay. Isn't the demographic still younger guys?

>>90692423
there's a show on Netflix about rich idiots hunting zombies that seems kind of similar although I haven't actually watched myself

>>90691080
This calls for a TAD. Or Dredd.

>>90694271
This is 1992 - 2002 across the two stories. Devlin was a seriously popular character when he was introduced. That was the demo but 2000AD, and I would say even Britain in general, is different from your American mainstream stuff there.

Devlin seems a little more concerned with his skin this time round

This idea is somewhat common in both parody and kink, this is Dredd's spin in on it.

final solution is legit one of my fave Stront stories. I think it only gets a bad rep from what came after and a fair bit of "not muh"

I think everyone who's a Dredd fan has some level of appreciation for the fact Dredd can do a dramatic story and still so regularly switch things around by sending itself up, too.

I have a particular soft spot for the racy stories of the latter because Dredd is so absolutely 100% no fucking way not for sexual that it's tough to make that work and stuff have a good or funny story.

And 2000AD published a hell of a lot of shitty fapbait stuff at least up until the early 00s.

But next on the docket is XTNCT sometime soon-ish? And maybe the whole of Caballistics, Inc after that, or maybe Mazeworld.

I think a lot of people on /co/ are into Dredd but not as familiar with other stuff that ran in 2000AD. And 2000AD stories are often hit-or-miss and they run short and have some limitations in format that affect them all but like - everyone reading comics should at least have looked at e.g Nemesis the Warlock. Worth getting some more storytimes out there.

>>90694992
I just really liked how he made Alpha look. I kind of agree with you in that I think if you really follow through the mutant line in 2000AD most of these stories should end badly.

S/D itself is sort of a last resort for muties whose lives in the 'normal' world are already ruined or over.

>>90695372
seeing how Alpha timeline is now confirmed as dredds future read the prog 2000 story and recent ben wilsher meg story if ye aint, im mostly interested in seeing how it'll play out. I mean really the only major difference in Stront is no brit-cit judges.

>>90695563
Jus' gie Middenface ane bionic arm already though, ye ken?

Devlin's awesome. This has easily been as enjoyable as Age Of The Wolf, another story that ran in 2000ad.

Godspeed, my man.
>everyone reading comics should at least have looked at e.g Nemesis the Warlock.
I've been on a prog crawl lately and Nemesis really is a work of art. Crazy, angry, hilarious art.

>>90696446
It gets a bit shaky with the first ABC Warriors team-up IIRC but it's totally wild as a whole.

>>90697045
>>90696446
Possibly not the first one actually, I'm thinking of the bit in the motorway?? I think??

Anyway Deadlock is best boy and Blitzspear is best mount, maybe in anything ever.

Yeah, the Time Wastes is one of those ideas that's kinda cool at first but Mills wears out *really* fucking quick. And it doesn't help none when the ABC Warriors end up in a future that's not Termight but is still gonna end up becoming Termight and things get loopy.
I just finished book nine today so now I have like 500 progs to look forward to before The Final Conflict.

>>90697483
The other great thing with Nemesis is you get a whole bunch of artists and almost all of them produce pages like that where you just get washed away with style.

>>90697683
Oh God, yes. That's something I value greatly about 2000AD in general and Mills' strips in particular. The man was never afraid to groom an artist and let them go hog fucking wild, and he always made sure to hunt people with very strong styles. Even Hicklenton's books, which are not the best storytelling-wise, have a bunch of fucking incredible pages. And while Talbot looks simplistic and kinda droll in comparison to O'Neill at first, as soon as he gets to spread his wings a little he delivers like crazy.
And of course, Mills does the same with Slaine.
