MC2

The Midlands Comic Collective produced at least 2 issues of their "MC2" anthology in the early 2000s.

The 'red' issue [so called so that I can differentiate it from the other issue to which it bears a very close resemblance] has a red background to the MC2 title. There's a list of contributors below - including Hunt Emerson, John McCrea, Laura Howell and plenty more...96 pages (excluding covers), slightly bigger than US comic format, b+w art throughout.

The blue issue features "new comic stories by the Midlands Comic Collective" but as I don't have this issue to hand I can't supply a list of stories / contributors. If you can help then do just let me know, thanks!

UPDATED: To help pass the time in the iso-cubes

I've looked at Comics calendars before (see here and here) but didn't realise there had ever been any Judge Dredd calendars before until a conversation about it popped up on the '2000AD & Judge Dredd tat and chat' facebook group.

I started looking for traditional 'wall' calendars for this post but I've decided to expand it to look at all types of calendars. All new material is in red.

So with thanks to Ian Anorak Hollingsworth (and ebay!) here we go...

The 1989 calendar - presumably published by Titan as the images look like the covers from their reprint volumes

2003 deck of cards - Bristol comics festival (part 2 of 3)

The hearts suit of cards is here
The diamonds suit of cards is here
The clubs suit of cards is here
The spades suit of cards is here

He then repeated the exercise just once more - in 2003 
Part 1 of the 2003 is here
Part 2 of the 2003 set looks like this...
