In the past i was able to search with a key word or words, but i cant find out how to do it now since the update.

anyone have any ideas?

I always wondered what star scan's really are in 2000ad, ever since i seen Mike McMahon's 80's Dredd star scan's start out life as as covers for the american comic book colour reprints.

So i thought they might be 1. over stock general covers.
2. professional artist (2000ad fans) submitting character paintings.
3. Actually commissioned for star scan.

none or all of the above?

what spured me to ask the question was Liam Sharps cool ABC Warriors Star Scan's lately, and i realised their had not been much in the lines of star scan's in a while in 2000ad.

Any one have any insider knowledge of how a star scan comes about?

thanks

James

hi, just seen this, sounds really good, if you need any more artist on strips, i would love to be involved.

I presume you are the James associated with the REVENANT story!

No that's not me, i did strips called mopad nomad scripted by Paul lister, St. Judge and the Dragon by George Cordeiro, The Maintenance Man by Paul Dick (page 1 : http://homepage.eircom.net/~meanwhile2/pages/06mm01.html ) and a load of fill in bits.( eg: http://meanwhiletv.blogspot.com/2010/07/middenface-mcnulty-penciling-page2tif.html )

Its funny you mentioned it was launched in 1997, but i did these in 1994!

I would also like to know what happened to "Fear the Badge", i had done some drawings and strips for it but i never saw the resulting mag, but i did get a t shirt with a logo i designed on it which i still have some where.
