For over fifteen years, the saga of Nikolai Dante - the swashbuckling 'Hero of the Revolution' - have been entertaining the readers of 2000 AD. Now, this action-packed story of grand adventure has finally reached its conclusion. One of 2000 AD's most popular characters, Dante has become an iconic part of the British comics scene and remains as the only 2000 AD character to ever beat Judge Dredd in the Eagle Award's 'Favourite British Character' category. This final instalment of Nikolai Dante's epic story was written by Robbie Morrison (Shakara) and features the fantastic artwork of Simon Fraser (Judge Dredd) and John Burns (Modesty Blaise).

With an estimated 1.6 million English as an Additional Language (EAL) learners in the UK, and over 5 million in the USA, EAL research is urgently needed to inform practice. This edited volume investigates the multifaceted elements that shape EAL pedagogy and research in a variety of settings and research areas including linguistic ability influences on subject-specific skills, integrating learners' home languages into classroom environments, and the importance of supporting EAL teachers in the classroom. In doing so, the contributors provide an international perspective on the emerging field of EAL research. The research-based chapters detail fundamental concerns related to EAL learner education. The text is composed of three parts: Part 1 explores the question of what is EAL and how a definition can shape policy construction; Part 2 examines the challenges EAL learners face in the classroom, including the use of first languages and the relative impact learner language proficiency has on subject-specific classes; and Part 3 investigates concerns relating to supporting EAL teachers in the classroom. The volume draws on researcher expertise from a variety of universities and institutions worldwide. It explores diverse language backgrounds in multilingual contexts. It covers empirical studies with pedagogical, policy and further research implications. The volume represents a single resource invaluable for EAL teachers, trainers and trainees, as well as researchers in the field of education, language learning and teaching, bilingualism and multilingualism, and second language acquisition.
