As described on the favourite artists threads, I did not know that 20th Century Simon Coleby and 21st Century Simon Coleby are the same art droid. Ok it seems obvious now, but I had no inkling.
This is peculiar because, at the same time I was operating under the assumption that Simon Harrison and Mark Harrison are a single entity. This does not seem obvious at all when I look at it and I'm wondering what happened to me to think this. Did anyone else get suckered by this cunning Thargian ruse of having two different droids with two different names pretend to be the same person (in my head, at least)?
Well... Not exactly that, but something similar. Shaun Thomas, who drew
Apocalypse Soon and
Young Middenface in the Megazine (and personally I thought he was brilliant) turned out to be an old artist with a different style and a different name.
Trouble is, I can't remember who his original self was, but I'm leaning towards Tom Carney. If it was Tom Carney, after his straggly bearded, Stallone-helmeted Dredd, well, faking his death and assuming a new identity was pretty much the only option left to him.
