Viz! Buster! Daleks! - All in this week's auction of ORIGINAL COMIC ART!

 

I'm selling more of my original artwork this week and it's a selection of festive strips plus a Dalek episode...

First up, a Suicidal Syd page from the Christmas issue of Viz comic No.191, published 20 years ago in 2004. Strictly adults only because of its theme and sweary bits. I have very, very few Viz pages left so grab yourself a festive treat!

Next, another Christmas page, and this one is from Buster in 1989. Christmas with Tom Thug, which co-stars Chalky and Buster himself!

Then it's the original art for Tom Thug Rings In The New Year, a page I did for the 1992 New Year issue of Buster...

...and finally, one of my Daft Dimension comic strips from Doctor Who Magazine. This one from 2016...

The Life and Deaths of Christopher Lee

About a year ago I was commissioned to do some illustrations for a documentary film called The Life and Deaths of Christoper Lee. I'd heard little about it since and couldn't mentiuon it until it aired but it was on Sky Arts on Freeview last night. I presume it'll be available to stream on Sky or something. 

Although my cartoons were in full colour, they were screened in greyscale, presumably to give a period feel as my segment was set on the 1940s when Lee returned to London. They wanted a 'Beano' feel to the cartoons so of course a slap-up feed of sausage and mash was required!

Got a screen credit!

The nature of TV is that my illustrations were only on screen for a few seconds but it was nice to be involved. It's an excellent film. Catch it if you can!

Here's the trailer, which includes artwork by 2000AD artist Simon Coleby:
