The 2000 AD adaptation of Harry Harrison’s classic science-fiction novels by Kelvin Gosnell and Carlos Ezquerra returns in a new full color omnibus!
James Bolivar DiGriz aka ‘The Stainless Steel Rat’ is many things – a con man, a thief, and a member of an elite law-enforcement agency known as the Special Corps. After escaping the corps, DiGriz crosses paths with the beautiful but deadly Angelina who, like Jim DiGriz, is also a master criminal, albeit a lot more ruthless. They must travel through time to stop a master criminal meddling with the past, and help to overthrow an evil President by having The Rat become a candidate for the job himself!
A classic from 2000 AD‘s first ‘golden age’, Stainless Steel Rat is a must-read for fans of Harrison or old school sci-fi action with bold characters and a wry twist of humour, complemented by Ezquerra’s dynamic and inimitable artwork.

Celebrating 40 years since IPC launched the UK's most iconic 'horror' anthology, this single volume collects all of the strips included in the 15-issue run of Scream!
Produced 'from the depths' of King's Reach Tower by the mysterious 'undead' editor Ghastly McNasty, the first issue of Scream! was unleashed on 24th March 1984. More tongue-in-cheek than horrific, the comic was an immediate hit with younger fans as it included a pair of fake vampire fangs attached to the cover and a number of fantastic new strips from some of the industry's top talents!
I have all 15 original issues and yet I still pre-ordered this book. I just can't stop myself. I wonder if they'll do a collection of the Holiday Specials?
