I considered selling mine too and replacing it with the new version...... but that cover is just too cool to part with! Good luck with the sale.

Just been asked if there's an original McMahon sketch in book - it's part of the excellent Bonus features. There's no way I'd part with a McMahon sketch!

Absolutely, me neither. I'm extremely fortunate to have a couple of Mcmahon Dredd pages and would hate to be parted from them. His artwork is consistently fantastic.

I couldn't get over the change in styles on Cursed Earth between Bolland & McMahon. It just felt like a clash of two very different artists. Last American showed me what everyone else already knew - that the artist showed a fully realised personal world, perhaps on equalled by Kevin O'Neill on the first Marshal Law series. Both manage to be funny, sad, ridiculous & fully believable.
