I am in wrathful suspense

[Simon Beigh]

Love the Ezquerra pages, Skullmo, and the Hicklenton is passable I guess 

The big fella looks extremely happy with his new pictures, Bob! Nice to see them up on your wall.

Please feel free to laugh and point, as I know nothing about Nemesis, but o1s1n is that Deadlock after the Nemesis picture you put up? Anyway, whoever it is it's a cracking picture!

And if we all say "Dale Grail" three times, will it magically appear?

[Spikes]

I LOVE that Flint Nemesis/Deadlock 'playing card'!

Yes, quite lovely that, isnt it.

Some very choice pieces getting posted on here, and Bob may well make a 'frame' convert out of me yet, 

Looking good!

And a 'Dale Grail' - it rhymes!, to come.

"PROTECTING ARTWORK FROM ULTRAVIOLET LIGHT, by Laura Stirton Aust, ARTcare.   

FILMS AND WINDOW COVERINGS: The primary source of ultraviolet radiation is sunlight.  Window films and some coverings provide UV filtering without blocking substantial visible light.  UV filtering of sunlight will help to safeguard prints, furnishings and textiles while also reducing the heat entering a window.

Done a little bit of research into this and looks like it may be worthwhile - about £350 for 30 metres of film that blocks 99% of UV

Yep, it's Nemesis pooping out Deadlock 

Done a little bit of research into this and looks like it may be worthwhile - about £350 for 30 metres of film that blocks 99% of UV

I do remember reading that it has a slightly greenish tint to it. So would be worth buying a small tester bit first just to see if you're happy with the results.

Well done Dale!!!!

Truly deserves the title 'Dale Grail'! 

[Call-Me-Kenneth]

Outstanding Dale! What a piece of history....and a lovely piece of work in it's own right.
There can't be many more important 2000ad pieces out there. Once again, congrats!

[Skullmo]

Wow that really is amazing - And it looks so much better than the published version!!

Yep. The repro and paper quality in book illustration obviously did not prepare Angie for the horrors her work would be subjected to in the pages of the galaxy's greatest. Those are gorgeous, Dale.
