How about a cover? Is that an acceptable compromise? Do IDW pay more for their covers than Rebellion as his cover last year on IDW Dredd was (just about) the only decent thing in it all year.


Top 10 2000AD all-timer. I even loved his stuff other people say 'he isn't putting the effort in'. It's his linework, he's just got something better than most.
If I'd known it was harmless I would have killed it myself.

I've just noticed he's going to be at the Lawgiver con in May.

(Ian, not Alan Moore or Frank Miller)

Yup I'm a bit pleased about this. No idea what I'll ask him yet if I am doing a Panel with him though...

Ask him to sign the petition!
It's a joke. I was joking.

Satanist

Looking at that petition I just cant help think that Grants Morrisons signature was much cleaner and vibrant when he was first starting out in 2000AD. Guess now hes a big shot his hearts just not in it anymore  :(
Hmm, just pretend I wrote something witty eh?

Tiplodocus

Ian Gibson on a wacky Dredd script chock full of the madness of Mega-City One?  Yes, please. Like Smith, he's one of the artists that captures that really well.
Be excellent to each other. And party on!

Some keen young blood to challenge my eyes and start their fledgling career gets my vote.
I'm with this. Invest in the future, not digging up the past. Unless it's an artist I like, of course.
Whats your point, callers?
Not really got one other than that some people would like to see Gibson back in the Prog and I'm not really bothered as he was never a favourite of mine and his last stuff was far from his best. My last sentence was a humourous acknowledgment that my attitude would be completely different if we were talking about someone I was a big fan of.

Gotcha.

the main gripe I had with robo hunter was that is wasn't sam snr in it instead of a daughter but saying that robo hunter was ian's strip as only carlos should do stront...dredd's fair game though, his world and variety suits many styles. I ,as many others would love to see him back on scribbles as we would like bolland to do a full strip on dredd but I never liked halo jones in the first place so aint fussed if that never resurfaces.
don't get into an argument with an idiot,he'll drag you down to his level then win with experience!
