UPDATED: Dan Cornwell for 2000AD & the Megazine

I first got into Dan Cornwell's art when I first read Rok of the Reds a few years back, I love his art style and was delighted when his work started appearing in 2000AD. I don't read the prog regularly but I pick it up when Dan's work has been it, so I thought I'd try and list out all the issue of the prog / Megazine his work has appeared in - a 'prog slog' if you like. Listing all these out highlighted a couple of issues that I'd missed, gah!

I'm pretty confident that I've listed all his work but if you spot anything I've missed then just shout.

So then, onwards for the prog slog...
