I've wondered about reprints of British comics material in unusual locations - here's Rogue Trooper (or as it's called here War Machine by Dave Gibbons & Will Simpson) in a volume from Heavy Metal and Tundra.
Lovely looking hardback volume...
This was originally published in 2000AD issues 650-653, 667-671, 683-687.
Spotted any other English language reprints of British comics material in somewhere unexpected - just let me know!
For the contributors you can find other stuff on the blog by them as follows:
Dave Gibbons here
Garry Leach here
Simon Bisley here
John Higgins here
William Simpson here
Surprise appearance by Zirk there - is it a black and white story? Seem to remember one where Zirk gasses some galactic police who have arrested them for something (perversion, probably).
ReplyDeleteDon't recognise the Bisley/Leach story at all - wonder where that originally appeared?
Heavy Metal did (and still does) commission some stuff, especially shorter strips. This was around the time Bisley & Tundra publisher (& co-chief Turtle) Kevin Eastman and Bisley became friends (the Biz would become a Heavy Metal regular from this point on).
