(people bring along other books to be signed at this sort of thing so I'm sure you could get him to sign a 2000AD book no problem)

General / some Mick McMahon work from 1973
11 December, 2022, 06:26:41 AM
From 1973 publication 'It's all lies' comes 'Geoffrey Gimp - special agent' by Mick McMahon.  Read all about it...

https://boysadventurecomics.blogspot.com/2022/12/its-all-lies-1973.html

I'm not a McMahon expert but I'd be interested to know more about Mick's pre-2000AD work and how early this work is in his list of published work. I'm guessing it's pretty early? The earliest? Let me know!
