Siku certainly stirred up a hornets nest , didnt he!?!

IIRC i said something along the lines of '...i dont like the art on meatmonger, but id still like to see Siku used on other stories...', or something like that.

I dont think Siku is a bad artist, far from it! His work on the old Pan-African stories in the meg was great and really well painted.
I just think he doesnt suit Dredd that much, especially when he alters the look of Dredd to a degree where he simply doesnt look...well..right!

I do agree, though, that personal insults towards Siku, or comedy death threats for that matter, dont help anyone.
Critisism should be constructive towards all involved.

Perhaps spring and summer should give autumn a miss and go straight to winter?

How could i forget that gem of series?!?
Hats off to messrs Rennie and Reardon for one of the highlights of the year (and this year, hopefully!)

Feeling quite ashamed of my poor memory now!

Overall, i found the offensive a bit of a let down.
DMW certainly started to get better after what felt like a rushed beginning, but was let down by an ending that i saw coming from a mile off.

Synammon was boring. I honestly preffered Bison! (no, really!)

Durham Red is a bit of a weird one, as this is the first time ive found myself reading a Durham Red story and i dont have anything to compare it to. A bit like soft porn, but fairly enjoyable. (Great last frame!)

No offence to either Siku or John Smith, but the less said about that Dredd story the better!


Cant really remember anything else from the offensive at the moment, work keeps getting in the way!
So, overall a let down, but not terrible and certainly readable and JUST worth the cover price!

Got high hopes for 2004!!

They were going to make a live action film of Ulysses, with none other than Barry Gibb in the title role!!

Thank Christ they never bothered!
(Whoever 'they' are!!)

The cartoon rocked , though. Creepy floating blue people...

New year seems to be going alright, no major set-backs or anything. Still not getting any artwork done, though!

Hope yours gets better soon, priv8eye dude!

Knights of the realm, IMO, should lead English forces into battle, like they used to ages ago.

Cliff Richard for the front line anyone?

And, if what i hear is correct, Disney no longer have the animation rights.
I feel animation would do Dredd more justice (pun not intended) than live action. (Unless they can get Ron Perlman to play him!!)

Batman works alot better as a cartoon than live action.

I'd like to say ive kept all the issues of tooth and the meg ive ever bought, but that bloody damp comic eating bastard celler from my old house just HAD to go and destroy all the older ones!!

But rest assured, all the survivors (and all the progs since) have been lovingly stacked up into a teetering pile in my bedroom!

Its my dream that one day i'll be able to pass them on to some youngster, and help continue the legacy of thrill-power, or something like that.
The reality of the situation is that im probably going to be forced to burn them in the future.

That will be a sad day.

Yours ramblingly

I agree that moustaches are utterly evil, but what about handlebar moustaches? And the kind that Seth in Emmerdale sports?
Surely those moustaches are worthy of coolness?


Woo-definately never had a moustace on its own-lly.

I personally have a sporadic goatee, which starts to look like rogue pubes when it gets too long.

I call it a sporadic one as there is no hair to connect the chinny bit to the moustach, they are two seperate entities, forever wanting to be together - forever shall they be apart.

Beards rule!

those who can - do.
Those who cant - teach.
