Alan Hebden or Dan Abnett - Writers Solhiem Cup - Tie 12

[Colin YNWA]

Team Classic vs. Team Current
Only work for Tharg to be Considered

So Team Classic rolls out one of their big hitters in response their increasingly precarious situation, the question is can Team Current offer an answer to that... welllll....

Alan Hebdon wrote Meltdown Man - so much more, but a classic like Meltdown Man will define this vote for many. Dan Abnett won the Godpleton Cup and ... well we know how much he's done...

Time for you to decide your favourite as the droids square up to the tee...

Remember for this tourney you have 5 votes to distribute as you please between these two artists, whole numbers only. So you can vote 5 - 0; 4 - 1; or 3 - 2; either way depending on how much more you like one artist's work over the other.

If you can't be doing with that just name your favourite - remember bold tags, or other ways of highlighting always appreciated - and I'll give them 3 votes and nowt to the other droid.

Three day votes, so this one ends morning of Friday 9th July

Remember we only consider work for Tharg in these Tourneys

What the heck is all this about - well we have a thread for that

How does this voting work? Look here

I don't understand how this works, what are the rules of the Solhiem Cup - yep got ya covered there too

Anything else just ask and I'll make something up. Most importantly, have fun!

Dan 5 : Alan 0

[AlexF]

Tough draw!
I will say that both have functioned as journeymen writers, as well as delivering long-form classics. Hebden's way with a one-off is not to be ignored.

Still, I can't in good conscience go higher than Hebden 1, Abnett 4.

Brink, man, Brink!

[Magnetica]

Do love Meltdown Man and that's surely worth a point.....against any one other than some one of the stature of Dan Abnett. So sorry but

5 nil to Dan

[SmallBlueThing(Reborn)]

Well, Hebden had a few reall good Future Shocks. And let's not forget Meltdown Man. Then again, Dan is a legend in his own right.

Alan 2
Dan 3

Alan Hebden 3-2 Dan Abnett

[The Mind of Wolfie Smith]

4-1 to alan, the master of the concise thrill.

[Link Prime]

Hebden had a few gudduns, but I don't want to even contemplate where we'd be without The Abnett Droid.

Abnett 4 / Hebden 1

Meltdown Man and some great Future Shocks against, er... Brink, Grey Area, Lawless, Kingdom, Insurrection, and those two loveable rogues in Downlode...

Sorry Alan, but it has to be Alan Hebden 1, Dan Abnett 4.

[Funt Solo]

Abnett 4 : 1 Hebden

I love me some Meltdown Man, and Hebden turned in a good few Shocks, but Dabnett is like some kind of scripting colossus, striding the Earth, squishing lesser mortals beneath his regulation Space Marine Xeno-Repellent boots.

[sintec]

Abnett is consistently delivering some of the top thrills in the prog. Much as I enjoyed Meltdown Man this one has to go:

Abnett 5 : Hebden 0
