Warrior #0

Every comic starts with an idea. It's often a "dummy issue" that gets given to publishers or distributors so that they have an idea of what it'll look like. These are often quite different to the end product, and can utilise edited material from other comics just to give a flavour of the style of content. If approved work beings on issue one and the dummy issue becomes forgotten, never to see the light of day.

Way back in 1982, Warrior's dummy issue was created and you can now see what it looks like, giving an interesting insight to how it all works. Dez Skinn has published it (and titled No.0) in a limited quantity that you can order by post directly from him. Payment to be made by PayPal to Dezskinn1@yahoo.co.uk for £15.95 plus £2.00 UK postage.
