Publication Dates: 24 April 1992 – August 1994
Number of Issues Published: 52 (#1 – #52)
Published bi-weekly from issue number one to forty-two. Switched to monthly from issue #43 to the series’ end.
Mostly a reprint book that featured reprinted stories of Marvel UK heroes (to the exclusion of any characters that originated from the main US division of Marvel comics, earlier on; this policy was eventually rescinded).

Overkill was a Marvel UK anthology published during the 1990s, deliberately designed as a Marvel equivalent to 2000AD.
Originally there was an editorially-directed policy of no Marvel US superheroes appearing in Overkill (meaning it could only reprint 11 pages of each Marvel UK story, excising 11 that had deliberate US guest-stars) – market research indicated this was counter-productive and the policy was dropped, with Death’s Head taking a prominent role in the comic.

Hey, i don’t know how frequently this site is still updated but if you could manage it Overkill 26 has an exclusive story that wasn’t ever reprinted and all the scans for the series I’ve found end at 25. i’dd love to scan it myself but its next to impossible to get a copy of it here and prohibitively expensive to ship it here if any seller were even willing to. If you can link a scan of it I’dd super appreciate it.

I wasn’t even able to find #18 and #25 and beyond. Updating depends in what i find and get, so whenever i find/get more issues they will sure be posted on this blog.

I have issues 18, 26, 28-36 & 38. I am going to work out how to scan & file them & I will let you know when they’re ready to send to you. It may be a while as I have a lot on at the moment. Will do them as soon possible.

Just wondering if you ever got Overkill #26 scanned? I can’t find the Double Cross story anywhere!

Hi, Dan. I’m sorry, I procrastinated & it all got away from me. As soon as local amenities are released from lockdown here I’ll make it a priority.

I’m trying to download Feb and March on Overkill. Tried multiple times and it never opens. Wonder if maybe there’s a problem with the link. Small possibility it’s my end, but I’ve tried both wifi and phone network. Thanks a lot for putting these up.

You mean you can’t download them at all or they won’t open after download ? I tried both and had no problems. Sometimes there are temporary problems with downloads and you have to try later again, sometimes also you have to wait for 30 seconds or more after you hit the downloadbutton.

Can’t download at all. Got thru Jan 93 no problem then both of those just wouldn’t download. Oh well. Must be my end. I’ve had several others where I’ve waited a few and it worked. I’ll check it again in awhile. Least we know it works, right? Thanks again.
