This year has been our busiest year yet- we published three very different books.

Stock of The Editors Cut and The Running Man is now less than thirty of each left, and Lost Treasures is less than 90.
Get these now while you can, because they will sell out. Buy them here now- hiberniacomics.com

There is now less than thirty copies of The Editors Cut left, the last chance to read interviews with Kevin O'Neill, Mick McMahon, Kelvin Gosnell, Roy Preston, articles on Garry Leach, and Brian Walker, tonnes more all wrapped in an amazing Mick McMahon cover.

I reposted @davidmcdonald.bsky.social's post about the found copies of Lost Treasures earlier but didn't have time to eloborate on them. Children of the Stars was drawn by John M Burns in 1970. The book also contains The Long Way Home drawn by Jesus Blasco.

Two volumes of Mytek the Mighty arrived and they are really wonderful!
I have only had time for a quick look but the restoration of the art is looking great, and the essays on Tom Tully and Eric Bradbury are worth the price of admission alone

Here's something I picked up a while back, almost by accident! It's the complete Judge Dredd phone card set.
By Kev Walker and by John Wagner, It manages to feature Dredd, Anderson, the Dark Judges, AND Mean Machine in its 18 panel story.
Lovely curio.

Countdown comic, it's like a who's who of comic artists! Don Harley, Frank Langford, Brian Lewis, John M Burns, plenty of colour and decent paper, it's a lovely comic! The art that really stands out though is Gerry Haylock, pictured is his Dr. Who that appeared in Countdown.
