Joe Strummer lookalike as a new hero of Meg-One.

It needs Tharg to be stamping on certain London residents....  Otherwise, epic new version!

Great art from King Carlos, as always, but I'd loved to have seen Alec Trench on there.

While its always been a cover I've loved, assuming that will be the cover for 1977 (which is still an assumption I guess) then its a shame its not one from 1977. Still blooming lovely image.

Very intriguing tease as well.

I was under the impression this was just a reworking of a classic image as an ad campaign.

Yeah that's something I'd have loved to have seen more of. They would have made a perfect pairing in my mind (well as a fill in between Fraser and Burns that is)

Yes, I was wondering if it was the first time he'd drawn Rogue too.

1977. Finally the penny drops.

Carlos on Dante! Death, Dredd, Red and Wulf! Londoners feeling the might of Thrill Power! Chinese Tharg!   Love it.

He might have drawn him on Helter Skelter?

Yep, alongside Halo Jones and Slaine I believe. Also the ABC's but that's nothing new.

This is why you should pop along to conventions more and ask questions. Sorry! What happens at the con, stays at the con ;)
