I think this is the show he had in Belfast about a year ago, some nice stuff in it (some duff stuff too).

Watch out for one of my fave pics of Dredd Cornered in an allyway (I think it was a star scan years ago).

I've always thought Will Simpson's art veers wildly from the great to rubbish. Two examples would be...

Great: A Dredd story in a Sci-Fi Special, involving a Pie-in-the-Sky floating restaurant, especially, IIRC, a shot of Dredd from the waist up, pointing into the page.

Poo: Vamps. All of it.
