WHERE ARE HIS ANTENNAE. Bloody american artists.

Imagine a few prog covers from this feller, not bad. I've loved his style forever.

Big fan of SGM here too, I think that's a stylish piece.

Very nice look. [ForRAC] Shame about the Nintendo light-gun.[/ForRAC]

I like it too.  Well cool.  Apart from the sheepish grin (just to keep the forum on a steady keel).

Bit of a unorthodox take on Dredd but I'm all for artists having their own interpretation. After all, that is what many of the greats did.

Really like this guy's work. Became aware of it recently when I bought Batman Black & White #1 which is well worth checking out.

Not bad but just for Rich:-

The boot knife seems to be angled into his actual leg and not running down the side.
The Lawgiver pistol is heading towards the gansta hold.
Is there a holster anywhere on him?

The rest can be artists interpretation.

For some reason the face says Dennis the Menace to me. But it's cool; very atmospheric and the background is incredible

Are you sure you're not mis-reading the bottom of the visor as his mouth?

Cheers

A lot of reinvention, but I like that.
