General / Re: 2000AD Original Art Thread

As a teenage in the 80's, I saved up all my money to turn my bedroom into a comic art gallery.

This was the first page that I bought, from Bad Company by Brett Ewins.



I liked the series so much that I got another page from it:



I saved up to by the cover with Thrax saying "Your Dead Kano!". Sadly it was sold by time I had the necessary groats, so I grabbed this ABC Warriors cover by Mike McMahon instead.



Another by Mike McMahon, this time from Ro-Busters:



And of course, what collection could be complete without a page of Rogue Trooper by Cam Kennedy?

Announcements / Re: Judge Dredd Movie is Green Lit!

I'm looking forward to this new film version of Dredd, anmd hope it, unlike the previous version, is true to its source.

The casting is absolutely paramount, so I'd like to nominate an actor that I think would be perfect for the role.

Adam Baldwin.

He's best known as Jayne Cobb in FIREFLY / SERENITY, and is currently starring in the TV series CHUCK. He's also been in the films FULL METAL JACKET and ID4.

The guy is 6'4'', built like a tank and would definately have the voice and presence needed to portray Joe Dredd.

Plus, while a respected actor, he's not a big name so I doubt would have any objections to not removing the helmet.

And should Judge Cassandra Anderson be slated to appear, I'd like to suggest Elisabeth Harnois. Looks perfect for the role.
