Few things depress me more that Comics Speculator Youtube videos.
Few things flare my schadenfreude more than Comics Speculator tears. "I used to be able to sell this issue for $20 now I have to give it away!"
Good. Maybe the person you give it to will want to actually read the fucking thing.
"The Game Show Show" contains this outstanding panel, worthy of Moebius himself IMHO, art by José Casanovas Snr and Jnr, their first Dredd, though they'd drawn Max Normal for the Dredd Annual at this point.
Pre-order D. V. Bishop's SHADOW OF MADNESS
The same Ken Barr I mostly know for COMMANDO covers
My big Dredd reread continues with Complete Casefiles vol 6 - post-Apocalypse War - which is the point I started reading 2000AD regularly.
We kick off with a string of fun shorts - Meka-City, League Of Fatties, Fungus, and The Game Show Show (a real favourite if mine, surprisingly only a 2-parter)
The sleeve art for Joe Satriani's "Surfing With The Alien" [1987] by John Byrne & Tom Palmer, taken from The Silver Surfer #1 [1982] - licensed from Marvel, but Byrne & Palmer received no payment or royalties for its use.
