A solicitation went out through Diamond but it had to be composed so early that there may be a few changes by the time the book finally comes out.

It shouldn't interfere with the run of <I>Charley's War</I> collections and hopefully the CW strip included will be one by Joe Colquhoun.Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12010426017572710283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32738097.post-91663088906883710202008-07-01T17:39:00.000+01:002008-07-01T17:39:00.000+01:00Any indication so far as to the contents of the 'B...Any indication so far as to the contents of the 'Battle' book ?<BR/><BR/>Will they be doing full runs or just odd episodes.<BR/><BR/>Here's hoping for the complete 'Team That Went To War' (Tom Tully/Mike Western)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32738097.post-25393243497880034382008-06-30T22:14:00.000+01:002008-06-30T22:14:00.000+01:00I'll buy the book but I'm annoyed that Titan is in...I'll buy the book but I'm annoyed that Titan is including Charley's War in the Battle collection because I already collect the series.... <BR/><BR/>I'm assuming they're reprinting the WW1 strips? <BR/><BR/>Maybe they could reprint the WW2 run in volume 2?crowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11569418820910409115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32738097.post-22591047819873255012008-06-30T19:29:00.000+01:002008-06-30T19:29:00.000+01:00I think Titan are pretty confident that the storie...I think Titan are pretty confident that the stories from <I>Battle Picture Weekly</I> will do well... it's in the comfort zone of stores that are already carrying the Carlton war reprints, so I'm sure they'll do well getting the books into the shops, and it's the right age (mid-1970s) for the nostalgia market of people just turned 40. Maybe The Steel Claw and Spider reprints just missed the rightStevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12010426017572710283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32738097.post-83573072297479142992008-06-30T18:51:00.000+01:002008-06-30T18:51:00.000+01:00The 'Volume 1' next to the Battle title makes me v...The 'Volume 1' next to the Battle title makes me very happy (checks <A HREF="http://comicology.blogspot.com/2008/01/comics-classics-22-january.html" REL="nofollow">Steel Claw</A> - no numbering)!<BR/><BR/>GeorgeGeorgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11823935339411313503noreply@blogger.com
