In 1988, DC Comics published a ten-issue series that reprinted the Warrior stories in colour, then continued the series to completion. The first new material appeared in issue No. 7, which included the unpublished episodes that would have appeared in Warrior No. 27 and No. 28. Tony Weare drew one chapter ("Vincent") and contributed additional art to two others ("Valerie" and "The Vacation"); Steve Whitaker and Siobhan Dodds worked as colourists on the entire series. a b Zachary, Brandon (13 December 2020).

[32] In an interview with Newsarama he states:Lloyd drew on the history of Guy Fawkes masks for the original story. These masks were traditionally worn by people as a tribute to Fawkes – an “iconic and anarchic figure in British history”, says exhibition curator Emma Stirling-Middleton. Lloyd depicted the mask with a wide moustache upturned at either end, with a thin beard and red cheeks. Moore Slams V for Vendetta Movie, Pulls LoEG from DC Comics".
