Comments:
There are two version of this reprint, a sofcover SC and hardcover HC book (see ISBN above). Original coloured material are reproduced in this book in shades of grey.This reprint also features :
- an exclusive cover

- 1 reprinted covers in B&W: 2000AD #130
- ' Prologue' a 3 pages strip never published in 2000 AD commissioned by Titan Books for this reprint
Titan Books has also commissioned a 3 pages epilogue that appears in book two. Both prologue and epilogue form a complete strip.
Finally, this GN was reprinted in April 1986 by Titan Books in its softcover version, same ISBN, same cover, same spine and same content (different back cover as Titan Book used this space to advertise its previous and forthcoming releases). Colors on the front cover are slightly darker on my copy.
