Red Dwarf Omnibus (GB)

In 1992 the now long running tradition of re-releasing content (much to the fanatical collectors great gratitude) was begun, when the first two Red Dwarf novels were combined into a bumper omnibus edition. Intriguingly, the first novel is referred to as Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers in this omnibus, confirming this as the official title from this point onwards. The book features some minor edits to the original text, as well as some bonus material: the original script to the first episode of series I, The End, prior to the script re-writes, a script from a Dave Hollins: Space Cadet sketch off of the radioshow Son of Cliché, and an apparent scan of "The Beer Matt" aka the drunken notes made in 1983 on the back of a beer matt detailing the original conception of Red Dwarf. Also, on the front cover they made it look like the ring in the Red Dwarf logo is the O in the word Omnibus, so it overlaps and loops through the other letters in a way never before seen. Pretty groovy.
