No debate.
Cam Kennedy.

[AlexF]

Bisley for me.

[paddykafka]

For "The Art of Kenny Who" alone, I would have to give my vote to Cam Kennedy.

[TordelBack]

Cam, and if we can vote for two candidates, Cam again.

Black Hole was iconic. The first book of Horned God was amazing and a game-changing moment in comics. But I never clicked with Bisley's Dredd, and Horned God later on became oddly scrappy.

Kennedy was one of those classic 2000 AD artists from that era where there was so much dynamism and great design in everything they touched. His Dredd is superb. And while I don't really care about Rogue Trooper and VCs, Kennedy's art urges me to read them again. So: Kennedy.

This 100%, so Cam Kennedy for me.

[Rogue Judge]

Kenny Who for me.

Cam Kennedy draws a top 3 Dredd IMO, and a perfect Rogue Trooper.

I loved Bisley's work on ABC Warriors and Slaine. Brilliant era defining work. I have spent a *lot* of time doodling copies of various Bisley designs like Lobo's space penguins and the Batmobile. However, when it comes down to a choice between these two titans, I too am with Kenny Who!

Cam Kennedy's future war work in the VCs and Rogue Trooper is unsurpassed. It's gritty and fantastic. If I imagine someone getting blown up by some kind of future plasma grenade in my head right now, it's definitely drawn by Cam Kennedy. Wooomf!

His work on Dredd is absolutely first rank too. Just look at some of the awesome work in The Midnight Surfer, The Taxidermist, the legendary Kenny Who, Two Ton Tony Tubbs, and that mad story about the rumour of the gas sniffer job going at the poison gas factory. Some really definitive Mega City One imagery. I also love the bonkers loose limbed angles the various characters are always drawn at in action. Really keeps the motion going.

Actually thinking of The Taxidermist, it has one of my favourite couple of panels anywhere in the sequence where Jacob Sardini is talking to his wife and by splitting the action into two panels Kennedy gently shows us that Mrs. Sardini is with us in stuffed form only.

Two great artists, but my choice to proceed is Cam Kennedy.

[Daveycandlish]

I'm all about the Cam.

[DrJomster]

Cam too please!

[JayzusB.Christ]

I love Cam Kennedy - for me, his Mega City 1 is the one by which all others are measured, particularly as shown in Sunday Night Fever.

But Biz's ABC Warriors were absolutely amazing, and the Horned God just blew my mind like nothing else in the prog had ever done before.

Sorry, Cam, but it's Bisley.  (I don't feel too guilty, as the Biz hasn't a hope of getting through this round anyway.)
