It's merged, in a manner of speaking, into Judge Dredd Megazine. For the foreseeable future JDM features all-new material, and will come bagged with an additional comic reprinting some 2000AD classics.

This Megazine came with a particularly fine selection of JD as drawn by Jock. Nice to see them credit the original publication date as it can be annoying to know that you have read it somewhere else, but can't think when.
I started to say something sensible but my parents took over my brain!

Why am i expecting "The forseeable future" to mean "until Tank Girl ends" in this case? Maybe they'll start up the small press section again, stranger things have happened.

I liked Snow/Tiger, though it seems to have only been originally printed in around 2002 so may not have been so good for people that where getting the weekly then. It actually reminded me of one of my own stories... there being no original ideas in the world and that. (Then again a couple of Commando's that have come out since i started on the story have been close to it too)
