Martin Skidmore - one of the great believers in UK comics.

http://forbiddenplanet.co.uk/blog/2011/sad-news-from-fa-online-martin-skidmore/

FA was always such a great read and Trident a great attempt at producing some good UK comics.
If I'd known it was harmless I would have killed it myself.

Sad news indeed. Back in the Day I sent Martin art samples and he was very polite in telling me what I needed to hear...

Likewise, I remember sending samples to Martin at Trident when I was 16 or so, and he wrote back the longest, nicest, most constructive rejection letter I've ever had to this day.
Very sad news.

I'm racking my brains about it, but I don't think Martin and I ever crossed paths. He did some great work as editor of the Trident line - Saviour and St. Swithin's Day stand out in particular.

Unfortunately, Trident was part of Neptune Distributors, who launched Toxic, and the failure of Toxic took down the entire Neptune operation.

Sad news to be waking up to this morning :(
loveforstitch - Does he fall in love? I like a little romance in all my movies.

Rekaert - Yes, he demonstrates it with bullets, punches and sentencing.

He's Mega City 1's own Don Juan.

The wages of sin are death, but the hours are good and the perks are fantastic.

Classic 'Euro' artist and so much more besides, F Solano Lopez has drawn his last full cheeked maiden. Genuinely sad news.
