Ooh, thats a lovely page Pete. Always fascinating to see a 'real' image of a page where you can see the 'workings' as it were. Was that in the meg? Still working my way through vol.3 at the mo.

With regards to the question raised by this thread, well.

Cam Kennedy on Rogue Trooper. Cam's ability to draw frozen action and plant his subjects solidly and believably in the scene has always been a delight to me, and so well suited to a future war strip that in my opinion he hasn't been bettered on Rogue. He also draws my favorite Dredd very closely followed by Kev Walker.

Robo-hunter by Gibson. Any one else doing it just looked a bit awry.

And on the Dante front I've got to say I'm a Fraser fan. I like John Burn's work on it but for me Frasers the one who originally formed the characters look and created the style of the strip which made it one of my all time tooth faves.

Could go on and on I guess like many a long time reader but I think I'll make some toast. Marmite? Hmm. Or marmalade maybe. Maybe two slices of one and a couple of the other. Bye.

Welcome along chap. Have a go at the art comp.

Hello mate!

If you're going to get bitten by a wild animal try to make sure it isn't anywhere unpleasant....like Gatwick.

Lowlife, hur-hur-hur. Me likey. And all of the above. Quite a few funny Dredds recently as well. Humour shows the true genius of a writer. If anyone was asking.

I presume you've all heard about the agnostic dyslexic insomniac who used to lay awake at night wondering if there was a dog.

I think with a forehead like King Caliban's it can only be a matter of time before theres a head butting battle royale. Big Bill the mad chinning machine gets within nutting distance and that'll be it. BOK!

There may be more than one way to skin a cat. But you try boning a whelk with any other technique than the usual one and you could have your eye out.

Boning. Tee hee hee.

Having said that though, a year or two ago when the main rumour was George Clooney for Hannibal, Brad Pitt as Face, Michael Clarke Duncan as B.A. and I can't remember who as Murdoch, I'd probably file this under a guilty pleasure.

I'd watch that, infinitely better than vast swathes of the putrescent swamp scum that Hollywood vomits into our laps with tiring regularity. Seven Pounds? Kiss my arse.

Cam Kennedy for me. Extraordinarily close in second, Kev Walker, Trevor Hairsine, Greg Staples, Henry Flint and Steve Dillon. And quite a few more but the memory isn't what it was.

Ah good, clear as mud. So. Miranda bought an island with her boyfriend Caliban and the her dad came to stay, but he had a magic aerial. Got it. So it's a bit like 'Jamie and the Magic Torch' then.

The gentle "Lost tribe" of the upper Wetwang never developed a full understanding of the concept of size. They consider themselves to be giants and thus avoid other people in case they harm them with their massive limbs.

And in my last post there should have been a 'be' in the final sentence, put it where you like.

Red Seas: Cool, exciting. Presume the whisperer is Ariel, maybe freed because Prospero has been overthrown by Caliban? I'm wondering whether this is (a). a miniaturised world; or (b). a sort of Sargasso Sea for literary shipwrecks where Gulliver and Prospero and Robinson Crusoe and Ralph, Piggy and Co. all end up.

I think you're barking up the right tree with the Red Seas storyline there mein herr.
Prospero, thats the magician fella I was trying to think of, and more than likely the old man the disembodied voice (Ariel you say, can't remember, was that his daughter?) is going on about. Or is it?

David Hasselhoff is disturbingly popular in Germany. So is dodgy poo porn. Hey, they're just facts, I'm not implying any connection what so ever. That would unfair.

For many years it has been the misfortune of our fair nation to be under the malignant and all intrusive influence of the Ministry of Agriculture Farming and Fisheries. Their foul PROPAGANDA has warped the minds of our younglings with state enforced nursery school lessons propagating the most hideous of lies. So in order to set the record straight and at no small risk to my personal safety I can now reveal the truth. Cows miaow. Sheep neigh. Pigs cluck. Geese moo. Horsies oink. Chickens bark. And last but in some ways most perversely, fish yodel. Spread the word, and good luck.
