Get Marwood & I

Indeed. From what I've read so far we only have pictorial evidence of two different versions of the guts. The covers were printed separately of course, so it would be cool if there was an identifiable difference between them too. Indeed again. That may be for reasons other than general laxity though. This is one of the most important comics in the hobby, so salient differences should be noted. But if noting those differences effectively renders one version as a subsequent printing, I can see how that might ruffle a few feathers among the elite group that actually own a copy.

Excellent, nice to see the two versions at last.

I found this on YouTube which shows the Action #14 back page (on sale June 2nd): I wonder if anyone has ever managed to do a page by page comparison of the two alleged inside back page copy versions (I say alleged because I've yet to see a picture showing the 'on sale now' version)? I do a lot of this kind of thing, comparing variations side by side, but generally on much cheaper books!

The Good... The Bad.... And the Ugly!

Still got my tree

The Duck from sfcity seems quite clued up on old variations and printings: I can find the same info in words everywhere, but pictures seem hard to come by.

Every Andru page is a wondrous page, but I'm not too keen on the Spidey nose profile in the second and third panels The back page doodle looks like something you'd see on a Ditko Charlton horror cover

FOR OUR AMERICAN CONTINGENT, THAT'S DIXON OF DOCK GREEN

Yes, the 'd' word fell foul of the profanity filter, much to the amusement of dark haired girl admirers board-wide. The Profanity Filter could actually be a PKD title as it goes... Let us know what the GN is like.

PKD!

No, what's going on there Eric?

Found it!

Do you remember years back when you couldn't type the word rover? The board software converted it to something like irishaffliatesnotallowed, something like that.

Christ, my double vision's back

Indeed. He knew what he was doing in a way that few have done before or since.

Here, changing the subject, see how long you can look at my latest off-register Voodoo before you go cross eyed... I was telling Kev and Neil how much I've always liked this one. That's an outrageous load of white space at the top, isn't it. Neil likes the 'Adult Comic' wording. He's into adult things... @nmtg9

Nay Richmond, nay. Like so many things that have stayed with me (Get Carter, The Wicker Man, The Medusa Touch...) I first saw it on my trusty old black and white telly in my bedroom. Must've been around 14 or 15. I joined Six of One, skipped half a dozen of the other, and off it went from there. 40 odd years at Sixes and sevens. When I first joined here, I had McGoohan as my avatar for a while and used countless Prisoner gifs to annoy every one. Looking back, I annoyed everyone quite successfully. I had a Fall Out style FDQ exit planned at one point but a lengthy ban put paid to that. I returned, unmutual. It makes me laugh now when I think of how stupid I was when I first joined this forum. Never had any friends you see, so I got a bit over excited. My first foray into 'online'. A 50 year old acting like a five year old. Calmed down a bit since. Still stupid though.

Yes, I had a good feeling, being there. The Prisoner overall, but Patrick's performance especially, is one of the things that took hold of me in my early teens, and never left. It affected and still affects me in a way I can never quite put into words. When I die, if there was a hat in which ten or so things were placed that made their mark, family and friends aside, Number 6 would be one of them.

Indeed Yes. Yes, I have.

I think he might have rung the wrong number

I was just watching The Footage Detectives on Talking Pictures, about the only TV show worth watching aside of repeats of The Prisoner, and a viewer asked after an old comic which told the story of a team of rally bikers. Here's a shot of the TV, showing the comic that the Detectives thought it might be (I think that's Albert on the right): To the trouble and strife, I remarked "That's a Streamline reprint of a Charlton comic" She looked at me blankly. This is my life.

At the bottom of every UK distribution barrel, through the bottom in fact, underneath it, burrowing into the ground, you'll find at least one of us....

@Malacoda Rich, some more related musings in this old thread: https://boards.cgccomics.com/topic/417827-are-there-pence-titles-for-ga-books/?do=findComment&comment=11581770 Kev had a UKPV purist induced coronary in it, if I remember correctly....
