I've also been buying old issues of Rampage featuring the X-Men and Marvel Two In One. I've just realised today that I've got the entire Project Pegasus story here. Result.

I've also been buying old issues of Rampage featuring the X-Men and Marvel Two In One. I've just realised today that I've got the entire Project Pegasus story here. Result. So.... not bad, nothing really earth shattering though. Decent Art - Byrne for the first 3 parts, Perez for the last. Spoilt by appalling repro on part 4 and the double page spread at the start of part 5 being printed on a right hand page and the following left (instead of left and the following right) I think nearly all the Byrne/Claremont team ups are in the bag now. Of course both of these are now getting reprinted in Essentials ! |

I've been enjoying MSH and Marvel Rampage issues Phil.
Byrne's art always looks kick ass in larger black and white.

All his Avengers, Champions, some Two in One, most of his Team Up and all bar 3 of his X-Men issues appear this way (uxm 141, 142 & 143 are printed in the first three issues of the colour Mighty World of Marvel. The first issue has some especially rank colour repro in it)
speaking of Byrne B&W do a search on Captain Britain Special on eBay - there's a B&W special reprint of both of Byrne's MTU issues featuring the last appearance of the original CB costume.
Speaking of JB just got some more of his Team Up issues including one of the two not in the forthcoming trade for rights reasons (Red Sonja - 79 - the other is 74 with the Saturday night live cast)

A lot of seventies Marvel work looks good that way, Starlin's Warlock in Star Wars weekly looked gorgeous.

I haven't no. Save for the odd page that was reprinted in the Modern Masters: Alan Davis book.

I put in a 21 quid bid a few seconds out. Blimey. The only reason you'd pay that much would be for the CB and it's getting reprinted ..... I'm betting the bidder doesn't know.

Indeed. I can only assume that some people are only searching on Superheroes all one word. Having checked my box I now see I own both of the Thorpe issues in it so Andu is going to do very well out of this one !
