Mick McMahon drew the very first episode of The V.C.s way back in 1980 and was never seen on the strip again, anyone have any idea why he never worked on it beyond that point.

Who designed it, was it Mick, Leach or Cam?

On the points raised in some earlier treads about early attempts at digital coloring in 2000ad, I would like to point out a droid that i feel got it spot on, "Phillip Lynch" on Red Razors with Steve Yeowell on black and white art, wonderful colour pallet, very little blends and when they are used they are not in your face.

To really appreciate the work you should look at the original printing in the megazine, as the graphic novel is a scan of the printed page and not a great reproduction.

I was never a big fan of Christmas theme prog covers, but this years 2015 issue is a bit bleak!

go to down the tubes if you want a look, I wont spoil it here: http://downthetubes.net/?p=18720

I am looking forward to this story tough, its just i was expecting more of a

just spotted "the Enterprise" on the Dredd cover, any one know what it means? any other hidden items or in jokes on previous art work, that might have a good story behind them?

Is there any plans to produce a book or portfolio of the Titan Book covers for Judge Dredd and other volumes?

I love these covers but have all the stories in one form or another, but would love to have the covers in there own volume, does rebellion own the rights to these images as they are very rarely seen in rebellion products, actually ware any in the Art of Judge Dredd?, I did not get a copy yet.

It think it would have great appeal as you get not only Brian Bolland, Mick McMahon, Brendian McCarthy but Bill Sienkiewicz, DaveMcKean Simon Bisley too.

Hi was there ever a silk screen poster done of Simon Bisley's Cool Assassin in the 90's?


thanks to http://www.simonbisleyart.com/ for the image

was just reading Ro-Busters again  an was wondering what ever became of Saturn Six, The Robot Planet from "The Fall & Rise of Ro-Jaws & Hammerstein"?

Did it ever come up again in Pat Mills Writing the ABC Warriors?

I am looking for Judge Dredd Megazine vol 3 - 76,77,78,79, if any one has these issues for sale at a reasonable price i would like to hear for you.

thanks

james

Who say's Robocop was not influenced by Judge Dredd. (well maybe know one here!)

Don`t know if this was on the boards before but this is a preliminary sculpture concept by Rob Bottin (special makeup effects) of Robocop on the features of the Robocop dvd.



Although i personally  think this might have been a joke by Rob as its way to close to Dredd helmet to have ever been considered.

this image is from the pages of Eagle comic way back in 1983, and was the first impression i got of the comic 2000ad, and no, i did not rush out and get my self a copy to overdose on thrill power, to be honest this ad gave me the impression that 2000ad was a very adult orientated and a dangerous place to be.

It would be another 5 years before i would pick up 2000ad regularly and it been a good, good friend ever since, but seeing this ad again reminds me of my original impression.

Silly really, anyone else remember their first impression?

Is their a Dredd Movie Art of book or Making book coming out at all?, the old dredd movie books was brilliant, and there ware a couple of pages in the Megazine this month, with images from Jock.

Any one know if the Art of or Making of Books are in the pipeline?

james

is their any plans to make a case files book of the daily's from the news paper, especially the Wagner, Grant Gibson ones.

hi. how do  i set up a email notification of new topics on this boards, i have one setup for general since last year and it works, but i cant figure out how to do this for other headings, such as "Megazine".

any help would be great

hi, does anyone know how the 2000ad Thought Bubble portfolio competition went? are the results going to be posted?
