Kano and Sheeva looking amazing floating above that terrain - super page!

Cheers, Geoff - I love Brett 'n' Jim's depiction of the weird, alien landscape of the Krool Heart's planet in this one.

Stunning page , it only ever could go to you .

Cheers, Dale, the 'new' Bad Co. pages were much appreciated! As you know, this page is one where a scan doesn't quite do it justice - you have to see it in person to get the full impact of the massive Thrax!

It's a shame Brett didn't do more ABC stuff - like Kev O'Neill, his angular, stylised art is a good fit.

You're right, Dale, I do! ;) Absolutely spectacular page - brilliant Wallbanger panel, great Tommy, and even a bit of Joe Scummer (my favourite of the more obscure Company-men.)

Smashing haul of Belardinelli pages, Dale - can't beat the unusual sight of GBH cuddling some Kleggs.

Blimey! What an absolute cracker - you must be very pleased with this! In a parallel universe somewhere, this is adorning the 'missing' Titan volume.

You got a new one! Well done. Another classic page wish some stand out scenes!

I always found the bit where Tommy first lays eyes on the butchered Kano very chilling - possibly the best set of 'zoom' panels in the story, as Tommy tries to take in what he sees.

Yeah, great cover and a really great write-up on both it and the charm of the series in general.

Brilliant page, Dale. The use of photostats for the 'zoom' effect on Kano at the top of the page is really effective, and the last panel is an absolute beaut.

Crikey, that is an astonishing piece of prime O'Neill! Absolutely wonderful to see this!

I love how Milligan spectacularly contrives a means to put Rackman on the rack - Grand Guignol at its finest!

If it helps (and it probably doesn't!) I can at least tell you that they are being treasured in their new home.

Astute observations there. I agree that from the perspective of his characterisation, Rackman is fascinating, particularly when you re-read the series knowing his secret � as I�ve noted elsewhere, it puts a very different spin (pun intended) on the Wheel of Fortune episode. He also makes a good contrast with my favourite character, De Racine - if the way Rackman�s death is narrated suggests an ultra-cynical view that life is fundamentally meaningless, De Racine�s story is the opposite. De Racine lives with exactly that viewpoint, and then, after years of arrogant amoral ennui, suddenly comes to life for five minutes, in which he saves the day, sacrifices himself, and is happier than he�s ever been.

Hell's Highway, Ep 2, p2, Action (UK) #20, p7
Owner: Greg Meldrum

Comment posted on 9/12/2013
Thanks, Dave. I agree - the pages are absolutely packed with energetically-depicted incident after energetically-depicted incident. There's a genuinely manic quality to the best Action stories - it's really obvious in 'Hook Jaw', but 'Hell's Highway' can be just as non-stop at times. Great work from Mike White.

Colin Wilson - Rogue Trooper - 2000AD Prog 275 page 11
Owner: David Rees

Comment posted on 9/11/2013
Gorgeous page, David: Rogue-with-face-in-shadow is one of most iconic ways to represent the character. I remember it being observed in the Titan collection of 'All Hell...' how Rogue works extremely well when played-off against a female character - it creates a very unique chemistry. This page is certainly testament to that. I love how the bio-chips are basically representing the voice of the young male reader - "Ugh! Girls!"

Rogue Trooper, 'Fear of the Machine', Ep 2, p4, 2000AD #247
Owner: Greg Meldrum

Comment posted on 9/11/2013
Thanks, David. It would indeed be fascinating to see an actual Finley-Day script and then compare it to what's on the page - I strongly suspect that you're right, and that Colin had pretty free rein in depicting the cyberscape. I expect for some artists that would be pretty daunting, but it strikes me, if the above is true, that Colin took the opportunity and ran with it. The end result seems evocative to me of a certain moment in time - the weirdness of 70s-style New Wave SF colliding with the more technologically-oriented nascent cyberpunk visuals of the '80s.

Yes - virtually pristine, which is remarkable for pieces which are, at time of writing, over thirty years old! Cheers again, Royd!

Owner: Greg Meldrum

Comment posted on 9/5/2013
Thanks, David. This one is indeed an absolute stand-out: probably the second-best page from 'The Krool Heart' in my collection, and certainly the one with the broadest appeal. I struggle to think of any 2000AD character whose story has had a more memorable and appropriate ending than Danny Franks (and as far as I'm concerned, this is the end - 'Bad Co. 2002' didn't happen.) Revere or Chopper (nothing past 'Song...' happened either!) are the only ones that come close.

Revere, Book III, Ep 3, p4, 2000AD #869
Owner: Greg Meldrum

Comment posted on 7/24/2013
Cheers, guys. There's such a unique dream-like ambience to Harrison's work (particularly, as Mark says, in Book III of Revere) that it's a perfect match for Smith's esoteric script. I'm increasingly of the opinion that 'Revere' might be best thing Smith ever wrote, and Harrison is with him every step of the way.

Cheers. I love Kraken's arrogance in this page - as Dredd later notes (on the last page of the story, elsewhere in my gallery) the mask has slipped.

I love Simon Harrison's work and would buy EVERY page of 'Revere' if I could. Lovely page...

Yeah, me too, Mark! Cheers. From your own Revere pages, you'll know the spectacular levels of detail Simon Harrison includes - just gorgeous. At the time of writing, I've a couple more pages to stick up, and they're some of the most beautiful things I've ever owned.

A brilliant page. I have been looking for a Chris Weston Nemesis page for ages (well a couple of months). Well done on getting this, it's a real cracker!

Cheers, Julius - I'm really fond of how rich and vibrant the colours are, something that really struck me when I saw in the 'flesh'.

Bee-you-tee-full... Yet another cracking page, Greg. I really am quite in awe of these (and am glad I got a Bad Co. page when I did; can there be many left in the wild these days?).

Cheers, David. I'm always noticing something new in these pages - in this case, the fun it looks like Brett Ewins had playing around with the design for the Krool in the 'line-up' panel. As for how many Bad Co. pages are still frolicking around in the great outdoors, your guess is as good as mine: I certainly hope to trap a few more yet!

This is lovely! I dont see 'Snip' in your gallery. You still have it don't you?

I do. The only reason it's not up yet, at time of writing, is because I want to do it justice in the accompanying description - give it a proper write-up as befits my favourite page.

Cheers, David - this page is swiftly becoming one of my favourite pieces in my collection. Couldn't ask for a Thrax-ier page!

2000AD - Nemesis the Warlock Pin-Up: Young Nemesis (Kevin O'Neill)
Owner: Mark Spencer

Comment posted on 5/3/2013
Good lord, Mark, this is a mind-blowingly gorgeous piece of work. Nemesis looks like such a devious young deviant in this one, whilst his dad is a right magnificent ram. Yup, conclusive proof that O'Neill is a god. A very dark god, but a god nonetheless.

Comment posted on 5/1/2013
Creative thinking, Julius, but I reckon that works for me - whilst in the Pit, Danny does claim to be crazy with grief for every living thing, even Krool. Maybe this is an extension of his revelation that even Krool have a purpose and place in the universe, but have become corrupted.

It certainly is - virtually everything in a Belardinelli story seems organic or alive in some way, from the teeming, writhing landscapes to (in Ace Trucking Co.'s case) the clothing and even the technology!

Another very nice page, Greg. Great to see you adding to your enviable Bad Co. collection!

Cheers, David! Pages from the original Bad Co. are always particularly exciting, not least 'cos (as you know from your own collection) they're so damn big, which really shows off McCarthy's amazing bold inking.

'The Short and Happy Life of De Racine' - my favourite episode of Bad Company. Superb page this - I love the De Racine / Mac split panels at the bottom, and 'What a foul, disgusting mess' is one of Mac's great lines.

That's an astonishingly atmospheric page, David: it's funny, I remember little about the story itself but that particular page must have burned itself indelibly into my brain as one of the iconic Dredd images. Remarkable work.

I reckon this is probably the best page out of the recent 'Doctor What?' strip. I am particularly fond of the alternate cybermen (and their rather Skrull-like chins.) Cool addition to your fine collection, David. ZOMM!
