Coming to the Megazine - possibly called Gumshoe?

Looking forward to this one...

Looks very tasty indeed...plus, seems to feature the best dressed protagonist since Max Normal!! Will keep 'em peeled for this one.

I recall at Dreddcon, Si was wandering round looking dead chuffed with some print outs of Frazer artwork featuring a man in whackily coloured trousers.

Was that, this?

And if so, did Tharg think the trousers were exciting enough in black & white & that letting the coloured version into the prog might be too much for our thrill-circuits?

Cool- this looks great!

'Mega-City Noir' begins in Meg 220, on sale 2 June. That's next issue, in fact. Jack Point *is* the Simping Detective!

Or the fact that you can't do Noir in colour (especially Orange...)

looks good, but you sure its frazer?

where are all the lines?

pauljholden · 17 May, 2004, 07:56:42 PM

You're all wrong - those *are* in colour, it's simply that prolonged exposure to Fraz's other coloured pages (particularly those magenta ones) has burnt out the colour seeing cones in your eyes.

70s decor!

Look at the second picture, the way the foot reaches out the page towards you. I swear if there are Fingerprints of Frazer on file somewhere they'll be reaching out the page.

Sometimes makes you wonder what is the purpose of an official web site when very few things appear here first.
Is the news section purely for stuff that has appeared on other sites? Would have thought that if you want to know what?s going on, what?s going to appear soon or news of any kind then this would be the place to announce it, or at least on the same day or possibly the next after Tharg has leaked it to other sites. The lack of exclusives at times reduces the official site to nothing more than a site with a good cover gallery, a list of droids and what they?ve worked on within the page s of the galaxies greatest comic and a message board.

La Placa Rifa,

Yep that looks mighty fine ! If the words are up to the standard of the art it could be a cracker.

Of and I agree with Logan on the news front.
