But are there any more details about the comic?
I'm searching for a ISBN,... and I can't find one.
Does a comic has a registration number like this?

Sincerely yours,

Yes, the first issue came out last week. I saw it on the list of releases from my local comic shop. (For those that don't know, Wednesday is "new comic book day," so if you're planning on picking these up, that's the day to go.)

I'm sure the comic has some sort of bar code, but I can't find it through a quick search. You can always order it directly from Boom! if you want to get your hands on it:

Or you can try and hunt it out at your local comic shop. Depending on where you are in Germany, you might find a location that stocks it here:

Hope some of that helps. :)
Thank you Timeless for the links!
Well, I wrestle with me to buy a comic or not, because it looks very interesting...

You're very welcome. It's a very strange comic, and not to everyone's taste, but I always think fans should try these things for themselves and figure out if they enjoy them or not.

If you can't find it locally, it may be better to wait until they issue the compilation and buy the whole thing at once, if only to save on shipping.

You're quite right.
I'll go to the next local comic shop here and try to find it.
Just to figure out, if I like it, or not...
Have you already red the comic?

Its a reprint of a comic which came out in 1991ish so lots of people will have already read it.. though I haven't for a long time. I don't really like that sort of style of art.

Months ago it was announced that the Diana strips may be reprinted at the end of the year (last year). I take it that its not happening now?

Yes, as Cybernowt has mentioned, it's a reprint of a comic from the 1990s, so I've read the original printing--way back when I first got into the show, as it happens. It's not entirely in keeping with the flavour of the show, but it's interesting to say the least.

Well, I didn't read the comics from the 90s so it would be something new and interesting for me. :D

Enjoyed issue # 1.
Rather cheekily it doesn't really say anywhere that this a reprint !

The artwork will be a bit Marmite I suspect. Ian Gibson is a legend of 2000AD but I wonder if some people would have preferred a more "realistic" art style ? He does do nice caricatures of Steed, Mrs Peel and Tara King though and his female characters are all very curvy. :)

Morrison captures the tone of the series very well although the dialogue seems a bit off in places.

Comic Book resources have more info. Looks like an issue 0 about August 2012. Reprint sales must have been good.
