Yes, including a balance of brand new strip plus US material. Titan are really expanding this year. A new Transformers comic is coming soon (again with a new UK plus US "reprint" content) as are other licensed comics. Transformers reunites the 1980s comic team of Simon Furman and Geoff Senior in all new adventures! (That's adventures for the Transformers, not for Simon & Geoff. )
They're also going to issue Lise Myhre's Norwegian strip Nemi as a book in October; the very first English language collection. (Reprinting the ones from Metro.) To which I can only say about bloomin' time!
Will this give other UK publishers an incentive to compete? Time will tell...

John Freeman's Down the Tubes website is essential reading for anyone interested in the current British comics scene as it lists all the latest UK comics:steelclaw wrote: Maybe we should have a thread soley for New Comics that come out, it's always nice getting Number ones.

The reprint strip seems to be Mirage's prequels to the current movie, which I'm sure were originally published in black and white - have Titan coloured them, or did Mirage colour them especially for the reprints? Also, the content is surprisingly strong for a kiddie title - nothing to worry about and certainly nothing that would upset a child, just the odd "hell" and "damn". Wonder if they'll reprint Peter David's short-lived series based on the recent cartoon? Titan have issued a trade paperback of the series if I remember correctly, and that features the odd "crap" here and there.
