I've edited this slightly to include contributions from Len O'Grady and a nice rant from Brendan!

[ming]

Great stuff Pete!  Glad to see you managed to get hold of Brendan, and that he came up with the goods

[Pete Wells]

Yep, a real Easter treat! Thanks for letting me use your artwork too Dave.

Aaaand this weeks' cover is up. A nice character piece from Paul Marshall.

I still cant quite square that in my mind as being drawn by Cam.
Ming, hurry up and ask him! 

From Cam:
"From this old fuddled memory I seem to remember the editor askin' me if I could adhere to Mike's style. I have vague memories of Mike bein' ill for a period of time and I suppose they were obsessed with continuity."

[Pete Wells]

Wah! One of the post I was looking forward to writing the most has turned out to be the most difficult! I shall edit forthwith!

[ming]

Is that connected to what I just posted, by any chance?

[Pete Wells]

Aye! I've put it in the main body though too, and give you a credit.

Hmmmmmm, interesting you should be talking to Cam... the illusive new artwork perhaps?

[ming]

No.

Mystery solved then! Wouldnt have said it was by Cam in a million years, and still cant quite get my head round it to be honest (many years of believing one thing, and now having to adjust, and all that).

A bit of a change while I await a reply from Mr McKay - an Ameriky themed instalment to celebrate the IDW deal, including a breakdown of the IDW teaser and and loads of classic Dredd images!

[SKD]

 That's an excellent Dredd picture, the helmet is very 'Bisley' in style. I'm looking forward to seeing the IDW series. Great blog Pete.

Stew.

[Pete Wells]

Cheers Stew, it really means a lot. I'm really excited for the IDW deal, even if it just means more covers for the blog!

[Pete Wells]

This weeks' Flesh cover is finally up, I love it!

[Pete Wells]

Edmund Bagwell's cover is up. I absolutely love this, the city looks amazing. A touch of Ezquerra, McMahon, Taylor and loads of Bagwell. Really brilliant.
