Prog / Re: Day Of Chaos finale
12 March, 2012, 05:24:06 PM
Going off a staement that Thrage made about Dredd's trouble only just beginning, I assume something long-lasting occurs in DAY OF CHAOS that other writers will run with, maybe the involvement of other city-states. Fun to consider all the possibilities... I'd like to see the Sovs dealt with decisively, which causes another world war as Sov-allies see their chance to replace MC1 in the post-apoc global economy and arms race.

Only just discovered by accident this had been published! Glad to finally see the very first of my fanzine artworks seeing publication.

I've love to see the Hammerstein figure with the Ro-Busters head ... it seems funkier, more 1970s 'sci-fi' than the Arnie Schwartzenegger Terminator-face of the Bisley ABC Warriors. And with a TAX disc so he can share Ro-Jaw's misery at being owned by Howard Quartz.

This Star Wars freak has got all the tat he needs, thanks, Tordel :) Got enough to run two toyshops. No packaging, however - I likes to fiddle with the little plastic men, women and droids trapped inside my loft...

What's the best place online to view the old MISTY strips? I only have a cloudy memory of them.

I wanted something girls could enjoy other than crappy vampire romances, talking animals and ballsy princesses. Contemporary. The ideas have been ploughed back into my larger, adult-orientated comic book, which again I originally wanted to be family-friendly, but the decapitations, eye-gougings and bouncing boobies hinted, again, that my subconscious wanted me to sail in a different direction.

That's what happens when I write AND draw a strip, which is why I often enjoy having somebody else's script, of a lighter nature, to work from; stops me brooding and thinking of the DARK THINGS...

No sign of my subs Prog 1773; maybe Rebellion tried to debit my account on the one day I was overdrawn. Will wait for the letter to arrive from Denise...

I've been trying to write a supernatural action-adventure for girls, but it's so hard not to 'fall' into adult themes, or avoid gore. After my character had a run in with a psycho-nurse with clawfingers and a gigantic horned beast erupting from a manor's driveway, I decided it might not be my forte, although I'd love to illustrate a good 'U'-rated romantic supernatural script.

Johnny's spent a lot of time with McNulty recently. Must like it rough - first a Viking, now a Scot with two-dozen dildos sticking out of his head?

I can't imagine Johnny ever choosing the solitary retirement, after seeing how he enjoys sharing tongues with various women from the 'new' Strontium Dog stories. He might buy a mork ranch invite girls over to party, or have wild weekends in nearby colonies before returning to polish his blasters with a satisfied grin in his face.

I presume the title refers to a very brief recap of Alpha's life. He lived, then died, now the story continues from that point.

Thanks for the comments Re: the return of Strontium Dog. Good news, I think. New Ezquerra Dredd and Durham Red is decent compensation.

I've completed all the maps for CITY OF DREDD (2134). This is a preview of the basic template used for a particular map describing how all the city zones connect:

I will be posting further updates as CITY OF DREDD nears its May publication date.

I wonder if a serialised adaptation of the movie is in the works for the latter-year Megs?
