Doom 2 came very close to derailing my MA thesis. Had to take it off my PC. Temptation to play rather than write was huge. Hours of play fuelled by pots of coffee and Chocolate Digestives.

That looks fantastic. Love omnibuses. Love the potential. Days and days of reading in one volume.

This got me back into comics after stopping my weekly 2000ad order in the mid-80s. Wonderful artwork.

I follow you mainly for the writing but this Apple tip has solved a world of pain.

First visit to the Black Sheep on Capel St. in a while. Went to try the 0% Full Sail on draft but sadly they had run out. Plumped for Whiplash's 0% Never Drinking Again. Lovely atmosphere; kids, multiple tables playing board games, good music and various pub dogs. Classic 2000ad for nostalgia.

Had this very book in my hands yesterday at the Secret Bookshop. Didn't buy it as I suspected it was lying in a TBR pile somewhere at home. Got home and confirmed I do not possess.

Days like this I really miss Underdog in Dublin for a couple of beers. I had a stack of reading material and would have loved to while away a couple of hours. Miss making my monthly pitch for bringing back cask beers. Request was entertained, but we both knew it would never happen!. Greatly missed

Been looking forward to this since you started the project. Objectively the best Bond film? I think so.

I knew this day would finally come. This is the issue where I cancelled my subscription.ThanksΒ so much for doing this project. Wonderfully nostalgic with some great memories from the late 70s and early 80s. Will continue to follow and enjoy for as long as you are posting.Β Thank you

Thank you for your Daily Not-Rothkos, local pub, doorways, windows, lovely pints and still lifes. Wonderful little corner of Bluesky.

I love PΓ€ffgen so much. Spent many an hour there. Convinced a KΓΆbes game me half a smile once. Probably mistaken.

That time of the year when a group of friends just share festive 2000ad covers.

My father would take down all the decorations on 27th December if he could get away with it. Just itching to get the vacuum out to clear up the pine needles.

The Dune Panini sticker album has to be one of the weirdest film tie-ins aimed at children ever. Luckily, not for "overseas readers".

One of my favourite Stainless Steel Rat memories is Harry Harrison sending a letter to 2000ad pointing out an error. He got Β£3 from Tharg for his troubles.

There is an animated series as well. Includes all the books as well as new stories.

This is very sad. Loved it in all its locations over the years.

A hazy Althea from Galway Bay at Black Sheep Dublin. Vintage 2000ad as a bonus.

Clearly remember picking up my order for this prog as an eight year old. Peak 2000ad and Dredd for me. No sense of delayed gratification, finished it in the car ride before getting home.

Ireland disappears from the price list again. Saturn and the Asteroid Belt are there, not us. Think my local newsagent used to make up the price on a whim.

Good morning! It’s Saturday October 4th 2025! Already? Crikey!

(Dated this very day in 1980, just 45 years ago, 2000AD #180, with its splendid cover featuring Judge Dredd by Mike McMahon.)

You be careful out there among them English, Joanne Book.

Peak middle aged fun. A pint of However You May from Track at Underdog, Dublin and a prog of 2000ad from October 1982. Bliss
