Title: 'Elp an 'ack out, wudya guv'?
Post by: longmanshort on 19 July, 2009, 08:07:33 PM
Lo! Am hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction for a couple of things I need to dig out but can't find ...

So, do you know:

Which prog the Michael Jackson-u-like was thawed out, only for them to discover he was ... well, a bit damaged by the cryogenic process.

and

Which prog there was a Ron Smith-drawn Dredd tale in which there's a man made of clock parts, with cogs and springs and the like? Possibly set in the Cursed Earth?

I hereby fall upon your mercy and pity. Reward? My gratitude and loads of cash*

Cheers

M.





* may not be true.

First question: Issue 513. Up until a bit ago you could have bought the original art from Ebay.

Hope this helps.

Sounds like the Grunwalder from the finale of The Judge Child, prog 179 - 181.

Although he looks more like he's made of old typewriters to me...

Um... dude! If that is the Grunwalder you're thinking of, he's a robot (in space), not a man, and you're not wrong on self-deprecating designation "ack"!

Dude! I'm only going on the clues Ron Smith gave me, so you can hardly expect his memory to still be perfect!

You're telling me Ron Smith's not really a fan, aren't you?  :D
