Honestly, I'm bamboozled, it seems like just a very silly Dale Wintonesque double entendre. I accept I may be missing it, but I don't see anything inherently homophobic. Be grateful if you could explain your thinking.

Crap joke* about another thread, PJ.

Fair enough

Tbh I find the overuse of 90s cultural signifiers very jarring and breaks any notion that it's a real futurescape rather than one drawn by someone who really likes Rik Mayall. One or two Easter eggs is fine, an image of non-stop late c-20th references isn't.

On the other side the bike and Clara Pandy look turbo.

It works for me.  There's a long tradition of MC1 citiblocks being named after obscure pop culture flash-in-the-pan celebrities, which is very much part of the comedy side of Dredd's world.
There is an Andrew Ridgely Block in Wagner's MC1.

Durrr....

See the points where I said 'overuse' and 'one or two...is fine'.

But thanks for pointing out what is clearly never grasped in 30 years of reading  ::)
If I'd known it was harmless I would have killed it myself.

Better yet, there's a Dean Gaffney!

Me and my friends saw Dean Gaffney at the Phoenix festival one year, we tailed him for a while and occasionally shouted "Where's Well Ard" at him from hidden positions, that was fun.

I'm looking forward to seeing more

I have a transparant/chrome Blitzspear in Gigers style that I've done, I'll post some of that when I've finished it (which shouldn't be too long), I can render it and do the look development in real time.
Here's a preview.

Didn't mean to patronise you, and I apologise if that's how it came out. I was just trying to point out that I had a different view to yours, and explaining my reasons, rather than trying to inform you of something you as a reader obviously already know.

Also I should point out that AyMajji's first post is a cut-and-paste of one of mine.  Mods?
