Emperor

I thought there was an thread on this somewhere but I'll be jiggered if I can find it (I did start this thread but looking back on it now I have no idea what I was going on about*), so I thought I'd start this thread for general requests for help or input.

A good general one is that you may have photos of 2000AD creators (or other British comics folk) that could be of use (not the back of their head and/or them naked), there is a list of all British comics articles needing images and there are quite a few 2000AD creators on there: Ian Edginton, Charlie Adlard, David Bishop, Alan Davis, etc.

Upload instructions are here (with photos you've taken follow the first one on the list and on over to Wikicommons where you can make it freely available to use):

if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

Now a more specific request - Mark Harrison just escaped deletion (the article not the droid):

So if anyone can find any resources that'd be great (especially on his concept work as he seems to now be the main man on that front at Rebellion). Also he has had two interviews in the Meg:

Neither of which I have, are they worth digging out or are they largely redundant after the publication of TPO (which I'll be nosin through later)?

There's this snippet from the dark days of fortunecities that seems to have also escaped deletion.
