The parallel-world Nazis from "The Sentinels" react to the news

Preordered (though slightly grumpy that I had to create an account on the Rebellion site - I much prefer to checkout as a guest rather than having to create umpteen accounts everywhere I go). Mistyfan, i included one for you

Thank you, but I have already placed a reservation with my comics specialty shop. They're getting them in. Might be useful for other Rebellion products, though. How does the account work, please?

Oh, I thought we'd already said I would get one for you, but either way is fine for me.

You create an account and then can buy stuff from them, same as Amazon or the like. They have digital products too I believe.

It's really very simple, Tammyfan. You send £25,000, or the equivalent in New Zealand's currency, to comixminx. She buys the comics and then posts them to you by First Class Mail every week. With whatever is left over she can chill out with friends and family for a couple of months in Bermuda. As a meerkat that I used to know was constantly saying in a very irritating voice, ''Simples''!!

I wonder if the pages will be black and white or full colour, or a mix of both?

I just found out about two islands in the Bay of Bengal that are a bit like the two Sentinels in the Misty serial, and they have "sentinel" in their names too. North Sentinel Island is off-limits and avoided because the islanders are so hostile to outsiders they will attack them with rocks and fire arrows. They will attack anyone, regardless of intent. This is not the case with South Sentinel Island, but it is of lesser interest and uninhabited.

The trailer for the upcoming special is now up. You can see it at https://www.flickeringmyth.com/2017/10/ ... rebellion/

Fun trailer, I'm excited, only a week to go.

For some more insight on the special, the following interview is good (talks about special at the 16 minute mark)

A monthly, bimonthly or quarterly might be easier on the team.

I wonder how soon before we get the reviews?

I found this sneak preview of the special at http://downthetubes.net/?p=40880 (they say "minor spoiler warning!").

Well, launch day is in 24 hours.
