| 2000AD Values |
Early issues of 2000AD command a good price - but we are only talking the first ten issues. You'd probably expect to get a £1-2 for individual progs between #30 and 100 (not counting the Burger Wars and Soul Food two-parters with the never reprinted Dredd stories inside), and more for progs #11-29. Once you get past Prog 100, you'll be lucky to get ten pence per copy Selling a whole 2000AD collection is problematic, simply because that many progs altogether weigh so much and are impossible to post.

Rebellion Developments

2000AD: www.2000ADonline.com
The Studio, Brewer Street, Oxfrod OX1 1QN Tel:
01865 792201
Publishers of 2000AD and Judge Dredd: The Megazine
Software company Rebellion, creators of games such as Gunlok and
Aliens vs. Predator, bought 2000AD in 2000 from publisher Egmont
International.
The Oxford-based software developer assumed creative control of the magazine's
content and its sister title Judge Dredd: The Megazine, while looking
to maximize the potential of the many characters and storylines which
the franchise has created (in both commercial and creative terms).
2000AD occupies an unequaled
position in the world of science
fiction, having been published
for more than 30 years. During
this time, the comic has introduced
a number of the genre's most popular
characters (Judge Dredd, Strontium
Dog, Slaine, Rogue Trooper, Nemesis
and many more) as well as launching
the careers of some of the UK's
most successful comic writers
and artists, including Alan Moore,
Dave Gibbons, Brian Bolland, Grant
Morrison, Garth Ennis and Steve
Dillon.
The first issue of 2000AD ('Prog 1' to use the comic's own terminology)
hit the streets on 28 February 1977, for the down-to-earth price of 8p
(or 17 Galactic Groats on Mercury) and featured a number of characters
and stories which went on to enjoy huge popularity, including M.A.C.H.
1, Flesh and Invasion. It was not until Issue Two, however,
that the publication's most enduring and notorious icon, Judge Dredd,
first appeared.
At the height of its popularity, the comic sold more than 120,000 copies
per week.
"I am only too happy to confess that I have been an avid 2000AD reader
since Prog 1," said Rebellion's Chief Executive Officer, Jason
Kingsley when the takeover was announced. "However,
that doesn't mean that this deal
was done for sentimental reasons. 2000AD is
not only a goldmine of intellectual
properties, it is also a hugely
enjoyable read. We are looking
forward to helping this top quality
publication to achieve its fullest
potential."
Rebellion's ownership of 2000AD allows the team full use
of more than 700 characters and
series, not only in computer games, but also in films, as action figures,
in collectable card games and in any other suitable merchandising vehicle.

Part Works Publishers
Led by companies such as Deagostini (www.deagostini.co.uk),
Fabbri (www.gefabbri.co.uk)
and Del Prado, these are ongoing 'series'
of magazines building up into a collection. Recent examples include Star Trek --
now being re-issued with DVD -- Carry On and Lord of the Rings.
Usually there's a gift to accompany each issue.
In recent years, the companies started breaking into titles with
plenty of comics material in them. Terry Deary's brilliant "Horrible Histories" has
been adapted into a part work -- loads of former Marvel UK people working on
that, including Nick Abadzis -- and Jackie Chan Adventures.
The business has grown massively in recent years and the Part Works companies
are competing aggressively for new licences, to the extent that apparently there's
little chance some big TV successes will become regular comics but instead become
part works. (The Guardian did a feature on the success of part works: click here for that story (registration
required to read this).
The difference between Part Works and regular titles is that they go firm
sale after about Issue 7 and depend on subs sales and high sales to keep
going. Most are very short-lived, maybe two years tops, although the Star
Trek one apparently set records by lasting for over six on its first run.
Of course the titles can be re-released because they don't carry much time
sensitive material. They're also re-published across Europe. The Star Trek title
was repackaged as Star Trek Magazine for the US and as Fact Files in Japan where
it proved extraordinarily popular.
The publishers do a lot of market testing and have plenty of material under
their belts before going national. My friend Marcus Hearn had to plan the entire
run of the Star Wars Fact Files in minute detail before it even began to go into
commissioning.

PO Box 6785 Derby D22 1X7 E-mail: info@mamtor.com
Publishers of the creator owned Event Horizon anthology. The first isue,
released May 2005, is an eclectic, energetic mixture of strips and art
pages from the likes of Liam Sharp (the originator of this project), Chris
Weston, Gary Erskine, Rich Johnston, Savetto Tenuta, John Bamber, John
Howard, Edmund Bagwell and many others. As with all anthologies, some stories
will appeal more than others but for me Sharp's Steve Niles scripted F*******
Savages makes for a great opener and I enjoyed strips such as Weston's
H.E.A.D. Trips and Johnston/Tenuta's Chase Variant immensely. Bagwell's
beautiful illustrations to Ralph R. Raims The True Adventures of Jed Lightspear,
Space Pirate are simply stunning.
The title's been described as pulp fcition for the 21st Century: it certainly is that, in spades. There's an unfettered joy from the contributors involved in this project as they've flexed their creative skills to maximum, doing what they want simply for the hell of it. unconstrained from any ediotorial interference. While some of the contributions left me a little cold -- always the way of anthologies, not every item will appeal to all -- there is more than enough from some terrific creators at the top of their game to justify the high price tag for this quality publication. Nice one, Liam!
