  • the horned god is the definitive slaine storyline. this massively oversized anniversary edition has been rescanned from the original film, and printed at a size that more closely matches the actual artwork. AND IT'S WUNDERSCHÖN!

    The map was originally on the back cover of 2000AD Prog 626, which featured the first part of The Horned God.

    I love the fact that they rescanned original negatives and print it on big pages. It's stunning looking. Most of the previous releases was just scanned images from first edition pages.

    Beautiful books. I have Slaine Eagle Comic reprints, but they are nothing like those books. Pat Mills, what a legacy. Best to you from Texas, as always.

    Hello! I'm from Brazil and I've been really enjoying your videos. The comic market here is quite diverse, with American, South American, European, Asian and even African works.
    Slaine was already published here a long time ago, but I wasn't interested in that kind of reading at the time (I'm only 19). Really hope that one day everything will be republished here and with a quality similar to this edition.

    I see Walt supplied the books. They really spoil us with the selection and prices these days. Lucky you got it, as it got sold out.

    Hi there. Just for the records. If I remember correctly, I've read somewhere that the colored version of the „Tír na nÓg“-map has been indeed produced exclusively for the anniversary edition ...
    ... but it's, of course, based on a black-and-white-version you'll find in volume 1 of the regular „Sláine“-edition ... und auf Seite 5 von „Morgendämmerung“, Band 1 der Dantes-Ausgabe (mit Handlettering des Übersetzers).
    Thanks a lot for another „thumbs up“ in the direction of the German edition ... it's highly appreciated!
    With a thousand Cheers,
    JRN

      yes, ficken! wusste ich's doch, in dem Moment als ichs aussprach, dachte ich so bei mir, da gab's doch schon mal... da war doch mal... jedenfalls hat die deutsche Version ein deutliches Plus was die Aufarbeitung angeht - völlig abgedreht was der Mills da alles in den Pott geworfen hat. Vielen Dank für Deinen Kommentar!

    A lot of (or all?) Booke One was also publshed in Heavy Metal (US edition) back in the mid 90’s.. My copy is lost now, sadly..

    Actually this map (in colour) comes also in the 1998 Heavy Metal edition “Sláine, The Horned God - The Complete Story” published by Hamlyn in the UK. The colour in this edition looks definitely more vibrant (saturated) and the blacks deeper that any previous edition. Does it comes with any extra material?…

      @earlgrey862  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      not too much, but it's okay: 8 pages of covers in color, 3 pages with chapter break illustrations, 1 page "dictionary" for some key "celtic" terms, 1 page afterword by mills, 1 page bios of Mills and Bisley

    Wow, never heard of it! (which is the main reason I follow your channel). Too late to the party though, it's OOS everywhere. :) I may get the paperback anyway.
    Resellers are appearing in Ebay to no one's surprise (the downside of limited editiones…).

    Bisley's colour work really transgressed expectations of what colour rendering in comics could be, when it was released,certainly in 2000ad.The downside of that was the number of imitators of Bisleys style exploded and to my mind 2000ad seemed to promote this very obvious style plagiarism because it sold more copies.

    • @nickmoran1
      @nickmoran1 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      It became boring to see so many imitators.'yet another Bisley RIP off'.One of the more convincing imitators (Chris Cunningham became a very good music video director.Look for Aphex Twin's windowlicker video.

      Definitely getting this new print😍 I probably settle for the softcover version that is easier to get though. You already had a fine hardcover in German so this überbox was a logical step.

    Hey Earl Grey, love the videos, just wanted to say, as an Irishman, Slaine is pronounced Slawn-Ya :)
    Also, have you ever read Black Science?

      Slawn-Ya! that's interesting, thank you... even though I believe if I would talk about a comic called "Slawn-Ya" nobody would understand what I'm talking about 😁. And yes, Black Science is great!

      Yeah, I've heard of that unknown and obscure book 😎 ... I have a whole Charles Burns-playlist, but panellogy 145 was about "black hole" proper (now I wonder how I did this in under 7 minutes???), while I showcased the studioedition of black hole in pan185.
