Unlike tons, perhaps ALL of my comic and college art of my youth which the b*ç%Ÿ«~ electricians binned a couple of years ago at my mother's house without anyone's permission – an entire bulging A0 porfolio! God help them if I see them ever again.
Just brilliant
Thanks lads! I'm thrilled that you like the comic.
@ 'The return of Judge Jack' - how did you stumble across it? (cheers)
@ 'Supersurfer' - you don't know how gutted I am to hear about the loss of your artwork. Have you trawled the attic and wardrobes in your mum and dad's house?
Incidentally: the very silly ALIEN: age 11 begins on Xmas day!

Hi Johnnyivan,
I see youve just joined, so welcome! - i did wonder if this belonged to someone on here.
I think i was just following Star Wars related links and stumbled across ya. Brilliant site btw, spent a bit o' time there the last couple of days. :thumbsup:
...looking forward to Alien age 11!
Hiya,
Glad you're enjoying it. You can take a page a day - should keep you going for half a year.
You know. I have issue#1 of 2000ad. I (no doubt) massively increased it's value by colouring it in, around 1979 with felt-tip pens.
Great. i can remember doing something similiar in an old textbook but not in half the detail or breadth.
i had that t-shirt too. I sent off the form from the back of Star Wars Poster Magazine. I bought two copies as not to spoil the poster that was soon added to my sadly now-departed collection.
I have spent hours looking at this today - brilliant stuff. I love the author's (johnnyivan) comments too, they have had me laughing out loud for much of the day.
Thanks Whizz-Bang!
Could you let me know if you find any blank/broken pages? There seem to be some but they appear fine on my PC for some reason.

Hey Zippo - think you could find that textbook?
Not a chance mate, that's loooonnnnggg gone!
Jesus - sorry to hear that. Did you continue to draw?
Incidentally, you can follow the ALIEN age 11 webcomic coming this Xmas day:

:thumbsup: Roll on crimbo.
I drew my own Dredd strip when I was about 9. Would love to find it and post it hear but I fear it is long gone. I think it was a 10 pager with 6 panels per page. Utter dross though. I had dredd ambushed and smashed up by a gang of skin heads and the rest was him finding them and Judging them fatally one by one.

@ VZZBUX; Love to have seen that!
@ Jack: Can't find your artwork on that page/site. Whereabouts..?
This is ace stuff! :thumbsup:
You got mail, Johnnyivan.
Thanks Zarjazzer!
Thanks so much Iain. I've added some photos to Alien age 11 now :)
Cripes - I did some of my own comic strips ("The Life and Times of Ralph Splatter" when I was younger but the "adaptions" I did were:
One of the Isaac Asimov "Lucky Star" novels - I can't even remember which - that would have been age 11 or 12
Han Solo's Revenge - probably about 16 when I did this. I rememeber nicking lots of Harrison Ford photorefs from Empire and also basing the female lead on Angie from Stainless Steel Rat. Copying an Ezquerra picture of a hot babe is a delight.
Sadly these are nowhere to be found these days. But I still have my Ralph Splatter stuff (I did it as supporting material for a character I had in a Traveller campaign - to fill in the twenty years of back story that the game deals with in a flurry of dice rolls).
Hi Tip,
Sounds great - and I'm glad you still have some of it. Maybe you could upload it someplace?
