Taking responsibility for these events, Vass resigns. That virus, as is very soon revealed, is the chaos bug, designed to spread rapidly and kill anyone it infects. The Chaos Bug has been released and the weakened Justice Department is finding it increasingly difficult to remain in control. Thanks for telling us about the problem. Show now.

The natural form of the disease is not usually fatal, but Yurges's creation kills 98 to 99 per cent of those infected, within four days of exposure, during which they descend into murderous psychosis and become uncontrollably violent. There is no footling around with romantic sub-plots or children in peril or ma and pa threatened - the kind of stuff that Hollywood uses to humanize the threat. Clues in Hennessey's visions uncover his true location, and this time Dredd gets his way: the compound is raided by soldiers, accompanied by Dredd, who discovers evidence that the bio-weapon has been completed.

It was magic when I met Steve Dillon and he gave me a sketch. It was magic when I met Steve Moore and we talked about fanzi- nes. It was magic when Tony Roche walked into Octo- con and showed me his fanzines. Magical moments, spread across time. Tinged with a tiny bit of sadness. I only learned that Steve Dillon had worked on a comic fanzine, and indeed that it had been his gateway to professional- ism, after he was lost in October this year. Steve Moore answered questions about fanzines, but the interview is not and never will be finished. 2 All intertwined. Even though I heard about Heroes Un- limited in 2008, and so the germination of this zine may have started then, it all came to a head in October 2016. Could we do a fanzine this year, get these histories out, a punishing deadline, yet at every step we seemed to get help and assistance to make it happen.
