Quote from: IndigoPrime on 08 January, 2024, 11:11:55 AMLeviathan went out of stock very rapidly. I'd tend to ask them, just to make sure, but you might have to head to eBay for that one. And it can be... spendy.

There's a cheap copy of Leviathan on eBay if you're still interested

Quote from: Colin YNWA on 30 December, 2023, 06:11:34 AMInteresting the picture from Close Encounters is by John Burns (or presumed so). I assume that's based on the Barney credits (or similar source). I wonder how the work was split it's hard to tell from the rendering as it so tight to the photo.

I d

Entirely based on the Barney credit, yes. That doesn't tell us much. I suppose for a lot of the early years, it's never entirely clear who's doing the coloring (either on the covers or on the center-spreads). I assumed that the Barney credit was referring to a splitting up of the line art.

Yeah that makes a lot of sense. Would be fascinating to know for sure.

I dug out Prog 144 and inside is a competition to win a poster of the cover signed by artist Bolland and colourist John Burns
