Ditto.

"This isn't for me, so I don't know why Rebellion are doing it" is an especially great touch.

Quote from: Richard on 30 April, 2024, 12:32:13 PMI don't know if Judge Urko means Mark or Pat, but I doubt that Matt Smith needs either of their help after successfully running 2000AD for 22 years now, during which time it has gone from strength to strength.
And Pat has praised Cyber-Matt as "the best editor 2000AD has ever had", which presumably includes himself. His quarrel is with Rebellion.

When Pat got that private, marked confidential email from Matt telling him he was passing on any more Flesh stories and Pat immediately put it up on social media.....was that just the quarrel with Rebellion too?

Or, if he means Pat..

"What great words of wisdom on doing a modern, successful UK anthology comic does the creator of Spacewarp have for us?"

Quote from: judgeurko on 30 April, 2024, 10:40:27 AMThis was great, 2000AD listen to him if you want to survive.

What great words of wisdom about running a successful UK newsstand anthology comic does the man who failed with Clint have for us?

"Comics are too middle-class now!" complains man...

...from his ex-pat gated community home in Spain.

The important question is, will this be available as an NFT?  And with some AI art content?

All those non-existent 10 year-olds on Twitter will be agog at this news.

Quote from: IndigoPrime on 06 April, 2024, 12:39:57 PMSonic would surely be somewhat simpler, given that the licenses wouldn't be so complicated.

I think you might be very wrong there. Action Force is a dead franchise, while Sonic is very much alive, and IDW currently have the licence to make Sonic comics.

(Further complicating things. Archie Comics published their own Sonic comics in the 90s for the US market, and their version lasted well into the 2010s, long long after the UK Sonic was history.)

Quote from: Batman's Superior Cousin on 20 March, 2024, 07:57:11 PMI believe he mentioned that both Robin Low and Steve MacManus were sexist, misogynistic dinosaurs

That's a harsh call on a long-term forum member. Particularly when he was probably about 12 at the time.

Are you sure you don't mean then 2000AD art editor Robin Smith?

Quote from: Barrington Boots on 01 March, 2024, 09:36:03 AMI really like Doomsday. It's objectively crap, but its very enthusiastic.

There's a quote for the film poster right there.

My favourite every quote on Doomsday, from a movie podcast:

"Congratulations, Neil Marshall. You've made your very own Paul WS Anderson movie."

i.e. i's a movie just composed of rip-offs/homages of better films made by better directors.

Quote from: judgeurko on 28 February, 2024, 07:01:38 PMDredd didn't have Danny Boyle.
It was made by his production company, DNA Films.

Danny Boyle has directed several films produced by DNA Films, but has no formal connection with the company.

I've seen him comment on this frequent misconception that he's one of the owners.

Didn't we go through this with him
Before the voting even started, when he agreed not to do the non-sensical merger thing........and now has gone ahead and did it anyway?
