Just saw this posted on a blog and thought I must share it. Sorry if this is old news but I did a search and couldn't see anything.

Anyway, DH is back in a Marvel comic and not some crud like Death's Head 3.0 This is the original DH (with a slight update in the visuals) and he's as big as a transformer! The title is Marvel's S.W.O.R.D.

Here's a little pic

Here's a link to the article.

Death's Head

I'm a pretty happy Yeti :grin:

Ok, it says that we're only 2 issues deep in the title. I'm definitely picking issues 1 and 2 up this weekend at my local shop. I can't wait to see Death's Head again!


... well, I kind of pretend I'm seeing him when I watch TF: Animated Lockdown.

Actually he first re-appeared a few months ago in the final issue of Captain Britain and MI13, apparently as a MI13 reservist.

Now he's popped up in S.W.O.R.D. back to his original pre-encounter with The Doctor TF size.

Ahh, but wasn't that [shudder] Death's Head II?

As that blog post states, this could technically be the first time (chronologically) that DH has been in the Marvel Uni since all the other times was a future version.

You're right, my bad.

So all three are effectively still running around (well, depending on who's paying for DHIII at the time)

:BOT: Not only was issue a great send off to that series, Death's Head's cameo was great as well.

I really miss Captain Britain & MI13 :( :CON:

Lots of people felt that way about Capt B and MI13. Glad I'm not the only one

I picked up and read the SWORD issue with Deaths Head in it. I would have rather not seen him like that, he was giant yes, but not as formidable as he was in the Marvel UK TF run.
