Future Dredd artist collections

[radiator]

Plenty of iconic covers to choose from for the book. Make a good covers gallery also....http://www.2000adonline.com/covers/reprints/hires/compjd31.jpg">

Oh, I'd be all over a colour McMahon with the annual stories. That's some of my earliest Dredd memories right there.

It would certainly be a 'Compulsory Purchase'.


I'll get my coat.

I've been reading this exact same copy today on the bog!:)

It's great here!

Big time yes to the Mcmahon collection. I don't have any of those except Shaggy's Big Shoot. Sad that there aren't some longer stories but the artwork will make up for that.

ThargSmith should commission a series from McMahon. Let him choose the writer and the genre. He should have a character that is his and his only. Like Critchlow has LobsterR. or D'israeli has Stickleback. I genuinely worry about his having Toth syndrome.

Damn you videogame money! YOu can take GRennie but leave us McMahon!

[radiator]

It would be great if Wagner and Grant could write an all new series for McMahon. Any genre so long as its mental.

[Will I. Cooling]

Trevour Hairsine would be a good bet, especially as his big in America now (even though to my tastes his art's degenerated into a fairly boring Hitch rip-off). Plus it would be great to read The Three Amigos again.

[skurvy]

I'd like to see a John Higgins collection actually. He did some gorgeous color work in one of the annuals (can't remember which one though) plus the more recent Garth Ennis story from the meg (Monkey on my back?)... And whilst I'm here how about a Bisley Heavy Metal Dredd collection?

[Cthulouis]

Does Trevour Hairsine still work in comics? I'd heard he too had succumbed to the dark money of the games industry. Seeing as I don't read anything other than 2000ad, if he's still in the biz, it would be great to see his work in the prog again.

[Robin Low]

I've been in two minds about getting these artist-specific collections, since I'm still hoping to see all the 2000AD Dredd's collected as Complete Case Files. However, I think artist-specific collections would work well if they focused on stories from the annuals, the specials and the Meg. If I do succumb to the Ezquerra and Flint collections it will be for the Meg stories they contain. The same goes for similar volumes.

Regards

Robin
