Godpleton Manor used to be popular, but it's sadly derelict now.

Just like his Mom,  :'(

Even better if we could all 'call it' the first part of the Dredd trilogy....

Toy Hunter at 9pm tonight on Quest, for an hour.
And its also on this coming Wednesday, i think.
Now i dont know if this is a brand new series, or what. But i happened to catch the trailer for this the other day, and it looks intriguing.
The basic idea seems to be a US collector searching peoples homes for vintage toys. Sure i caught a glimpse of some Star Trek stuff, and what looked to be the infamous Kenner Alien figure being unearthed.

Will this lead to more (regular!) stuff in the prog? C'mon Tharg, make it happen.

Great stuff from Mick. Saw these today on his blog.

Cheers again, Bob. When i was arranging my commission's from Paul, he told me that he prefers to work in watercolours.  You need to commission him!

And 100% spot-on, SKD. Around 1990/91, a definite Moebius influence was visible in Paul's work - which fitted incredibily well, i thought.
Id always thought Paul's style was totally his own creation - and it largely is, but if you look long enough you can see traces of Moebius - along with a Jack Kirby vibe that pops up every now and again.

Paul tells a neat little story, on his blog, about meeting Moebius - here

Scare off all the sheep, John?


I think were witnessing the 'after' photo. CF certainly looks contented, anyway  ;)

Typical. On the day I post a Bolland, JJ has to come along and trump it  :lol:

Oh, im pretty sure, positive - in fact, your Bolland is the top dog here SB! - but thanks for the comments Guys.

@ Dale and Bob, the Concrete piece has never been published - as far as i can tell (certainly not in any Concrete comics). I bought this piece off a US collector, via CAF, a couple of years ago.
I dont think it was a commission, as its not dedicated - thank grud!
So i suspect it was drawn (either beforehand or during) for a stateside convention - or some such, and offered for sale there.

Dont often post on here - simply because i dont have a huge selection of non-2000ad art in my collection, but i thought id share this;



Concrete and friends at Monument Valley. Drawn by Paul Chadwick, and painted by his wife Elizabeth.

A very tasty page that - and nicely signed, though i dont quite believe your claim of still having all your Kidneys left,  ;)
