After the drama of yesterday some less dramatic (possibly) votes today, though no less interesting. This vote hangs on how funny you find Droid Life and what you can forgive other concerns for because Journal of Luke Kirby (my opinion you lot have you own for some crazy reason). But in saying that its important to remember we are voting based on writing for Tharg (not issuing work / ownership) so that said
Cat Sullivan - http://www.2000ad.org/?zone=droid&page=profiles&choice=CATS (http://www.2000ad.org/?zone=droid&page=profiles&choice=CATS)
OR
Alan McKenzie - http://www.2000ad.org/?zone=droid&page=profiles&choice=ALANMC (http://www.2000ad.org/?zone=droid&page=profiles&choice=ALANMC)
What is all this nonsense you ask well we're finding out whose 2000ad (Meg and associated items) writing do you prefer? Voting - just add a comment here with whose work you prefer (and anything else you might wish to say to discuss their work). This vote closes some time early Wednesday 3rd June?

Two more Round 1 votes off start tomorrow.
Alan McKenzie for Summer Magic / Journal of Luke Kirby and Bradley.
Alan McKenzie for bringing us Summer Magic
Cat Sullivan for bringing us the AC/DC VC BC warriors
McKenzie For Like Kirby, as much as I like Droid Life and dislike what else McKenzie has written for the Prog.
McKenzie. Though typesd with gritted teeth.
Alan McKenzie for Luke Kirby.
Given that I don't know Luke Kirby all that well, I'm left to judge McKenzie mainly on various episodes of Bradley and Brigand Doom. That means a fairly easy win for Cat Sullivan, some of whose Droid Life(s) have properly made me laugh out loud in the past. Best Tooth humour strip since DR & Quinch.

I like Droid Life, but this is still an easy win for McKenzie. It's true that he has written some truly terrible stuff, but that is massively outweighed by the good: Summer Magic, The Night Walker, and Bradley.
Come to think of it, Bradley deserves a floppy.

Bradley deserves a floppy.
There's a gag there somewhere... too hot to find it but can you all be lovely pretend I did and giggle?
Lol! 😆
Alan McKenzie...
McKenzie, cause droid life sucks.

It almost time for a tea break so if you want your vote counted get them in, voting on this one closes tomorrow (Wednesday) morning.
Cat Sullivan.
VOTING CLOSED - but feel free to add votes and comments but the call is made.
While it was never completely one sided one story seems to have driven the winner of the vote across the line with Summer Magic understandably featuring a LOT in the comments. And so
Alan McKenzie
Makes it through to the second round.
