Anyone who, er, just so happen to be in Bergen, Norway between 12-14 September could do worse than troll along to the 'Raptus' comic convention, featuring the following 2000AD alumini :-
Pat Mills
Carlos Ezquerra
Alan Grant
Mike Collins
Carl Critchlow
John Cooper (artist on early Dredds, MACH 1 and 'Johnny Red' for Battle - its his 1st ever convention btw!)

Funny, I was wondering what he was up to after he was mentioned yesterday.
Is he still working, do you know? I havn't seen anything new from him for ages.
(Lobo, still reeling from his recently discovery that his favourite Dan Dare artist Keith Watson has died...)
Don't think he's working in the comics field. He used to have a website with some fine art on it, but that's disappeared lately.
If anyone knows how to get hold of him please let me know - I'd love to interview him !
