Cover's alright, nice composition but it looked like it was referencing heavily on the strip, which was a bad move IMO. The Ridgy-Digi was as bad as I'd heard, and apart from Siddha the art throughout this Meg just doesn't do "it" for me. All the new stories are ace, mind.

Charley's War's a good read, but I can't wait for the bleedin' HellTrekkers to hurry up and die again.

There was something like this in an SF story from the 60's (forget title), a sort of mesh-suit with a gel filled lining that deadened the force of an impact by redistributing it around the body.

Westworld rip off

Heh, and that faceless robot sheriff in Flesh.

Speaking of which, always thought Flesh owed something to Valley Of Gwangi, with the cowboys versus dinosaurs action.

I'm sure if we thought about it long enough and stretched the point a bit there'd be things like Ro-Busters as a Thunderbirds rip-off, though. The Cursed Earth is an ace mish-mash of rip-offs (Damnation Alley, Battle For The Planet Of The Apes, advertising icons etc)

She's locked up now.

She died, Trout. (I'm top pedant now!)

Some pages of his 2000AD work are listed http://www.2000adonline.com/?zone=collector&page=artsale&choice=VANYO&Comic=ArtistAll>here.

http://www.lambiek.net/artists/index.htm>Lambiek usually has good links and info on European and South American artists, but Vanyo doesn't seem to be listed.

Ahh that's right, I remember it from Speed. Good work, Thinky.

I wonder how that was pitched? The Fall Guy starring Phantom Of The Opera?
