  2. I would have thought 'Terror behind the Bamboo Curtain' of the original Battle stories would have appealed more to 2000AD readers. LOML was lightweight. I enjoyed it at the time but on reflection you do have to suspend disbelief that a Brit speaking German would fool so many Germans for so long into accepting him as German.

  3. Perhaps Terror will be used in a graphic novel? The Megazine reprints tend to use stories that probably wouldn't sell as stand alone books.
