It seems to be a lot more 2000ad layout than a meg layout which is a good thing after some of the recent more lack lustre cover design on the meg (graphic layout rather than artwork)

Great image, and a much better looking Meg than recent design disasters (although the typeface on 'Redondo' makes it all but illegible to the uninitiated) , but still no indication of what might be in the 'Free' 'Graphic Novel'.  If you're not going to tout these things, why bother at all?

Superb.

The cropping on the right and obscuring the logo really makes it feel imposing.

That's a great cover, but-
Redondo interviewed- that's great too.

Looking forward to this one.

Jon send me NINE massive versions of that cover yesterday for the blog. From roughs to inks to final colours.

Train permitting, I'll be uploading them on my way to Hi-Ex today...

Grud forbid the cover would offer any hints.  Get  that sorted, Tharg's-paternity-cover.
