Given that forbidden planet is about 70% merchandice these days, Im surprised that tooth hasnt jumped on this bandwagon in a much bigger way. The only things I have seen are the dredd/death sculptures (apart from the figures a while back).

I want GOOD t-shirts! And in the sodding shops too!.

Daredevil kinda looks like that Flash movie that was out feckin ages ago. All dark with hoodlums and the like, flashy red costume...

Sensing the competition, hopefully the cheeky girls will take their act to the next level...

Uuuhh...twins...

Is it for a feature along the lines of "how to draw judge dredd", or something similar?

You said its about dredd, sooooo:

Is it related to some other medium, as opposed to the comic?

The Mysterious cities of gold.

Misty eyed hex.

1. What shape is your head?
Big spam, small chin: kinda stoopid.

2. Which book do you wish you?d written?
The bible. Its a mighty work of art.

3. If time got stuck, what time would you like it to be?
Last night, whilst dreaming of kirsten dunst.

4. Are there really only sixteen men of Tain?
Depends.

5. What was her/his name and why didn?t you have the courage to ask her/him out? And would your life be different if you had?
I dont want to go there. It haunts me to this day.
Damn!

6. Why do you read 2000AD?
Its the least gay magazine publication you can be devoted to. Or summit. In a non-homophobe way that is...

7. If the opportunity arose, would you live and work abroad?
Yup. But not Germany. Been there too much of late.

8. If you had to provide one piece of advice to an alien stranded on Earth, what would it be?
Floss your teeth. They wont stay good forever!

9. Can justice be bought?
Yup. And then locked up and the key thrown away.

10. You're Tharg for the day: what are you going to do? Go on... you know you want to...
"Right Moore. Money's no object...."

That argument AUGHT to make sense, it is a fair point, but I still feel there is a difference. How many people died in Star Wars? Planets blowing up and all? Would it be as acceptable if characters were being brutally raped?
Do we not see 2K violence in the same comic book way? Is this the writers way of saying that we were never meant to ?

I wouldnt have been ruffled in the slightest if this had been the Megazine, probably due to its one time "mature" reputation.(is it still that way today?)

diGriz? Slippo? Whats going on? Wasnt slippo "slippo"? Why are you now not?

Ok, Ok I got that bit wrong. Typing AND doing nuclear physics is tough. I didnt mean "against" in that lasat one, I mean "for". D'oh!

I was trying to say that whilst not againt censorship, i feel there is a correct context for things. An i feel tooth was not the right context for this particular plot turn. As opposed to the ultra-literal traslation and jabberings about hypocracy suggested above. And it didnt offend me, at no point did I say that. In fact a few days ago I was on this very board defending The legend of the Overfiend , an 18 certificate movie, for all its manga demon porn and violence.  

It still shouldnt have been in tooth. No matter how much it reflected the brutalities of life. Or whatever. No matter how highly you might value such a thing in any art form for its confrontational and discussion-provoking effect, it STILL shouldnt have been in tooth.

Boarders have often voiced objections to the occasional swearing in tooth. Why should swearing not be acceptable and yet this is? Has it more "artistic" merit?  

Im not for censorship in anyway or any "sweep under the carpet" philosophy, but I think the context is all wrong. Sorry.

"Thats the nature of evil"? Thats all very well, but 2K is still a kids comic and not, for example, Dantes Inferno. It was a plain abuse of responsibility.

They are supposed to be out now but apparently some legel wrangle has kept them back. That was the last I heard anyway, I may be wrong. Not that Im too bothered, I picked up Phase 1 months, ago which apparently shouldnt have been on the shelf due to afore mentioned wrangling. Hurrah for mistakes!

It was great. Chin shmin. It was bold and clear and everything that was ever good about Bolland. If it werent for that damned alien...

I also loved the art for Dead Reckoning, but Ive said enough about that already.
