Okay so don't say I didn't warn you. First out the hat this round we get one of the tournaments favourites BUT its the other side of the draw I want to focus on. As Steve Dillon is just a sublime artist who has gone on to become a superstar outside 2000ad, but for me did his best work for Tharg. The thing this draws tells us is DAMN when I said there was going to be tough calls to make, well when I drew this one I thought there wouldn't be tougher... I was wrong! Oh and keep ya filthy Tankies and ya Hellblazers out of this!

Alas we still have to pick our favourite and to do so just pop the name of the art droid you'd most like to go through to the Quarter Finals, but please add anything else you'd like to say as well.

Both brilliant and both much missed. For his sheer body of consistently excellent and memorable work for Tharg, and with many apologies to Steve, I'm voting for King Carlos.

Dillon may have drawn personal favourite episodes and moments, but for an overall contribution of excellence, it has to the The King.

When I die, I want to die like my grandfather who died peacefully in his sleep. Not screaming like all the passengers in his car.

Old age is the Lord's way of telling us to step aside for something new. Death's in case we didn't take the hint.

Bah!  Sorry Steve.  Has to be Carlos - we may as well call all this a day to be honest.  Hah!

Ezquerra. He was my very first Dredd artist, and Dillon was my third (after Ron), and it's a headstart he didn't really need. Steve Dillon was magic, producing some of my all-time favourite 2000AD episodes (From Dredd alone 'Cry of the Werewolf', 'Alone in a Crowd', 'Over the Wall', and all of his bits of 'City of the Damned' and 'Block Mania'), but even so, the King triumphs.

Ezquerra. But bloody hell at this draw.

Thing is I suspect its not getting any easier as the round progresses!

Steve was technically brilliant, but for some reason I was never a huge fan, except when Kev Walker did his inking.

It's got to be Carlos. Of course it does.
