Many of those prints were iffy at release. I recall Olly saying something about the quality and holding many back to be destroyed at some point. Anyone else recall the exact deets?

cheers - I just went through the release thread and it seems most had issues and rough edges so all good - if they are all like that its fine - if I knew there were mint ones and I had one that was defective it would always rub at me :)

Come on the name of the print is DEFECTIVE Comics - did you expect perfection? :P

Another question whilst people are in a giving mood - why was the blues brothers rolling roadshow print such a smaller run?

There was a problem with either the printing of the print or the licensing for it, and it wasn't ironed out in time for the print to be available at any of the Rolling Roadshow dates. A tiny run was printed after the roadshow wrapped up to fulfill the commitment. Some or most of those copies were given to the promotors . A few copies made it out there and into friendly hands, eventually. 8)

For fans of Moss, this is Adrian Johnson. One of the best working illustrators in the business with a similar style.
