I love these covers. Arthur produced some of the least-typical of the 2000AD covers and your thoughtful design works beautifully with the artwork. A great team!

Thanks, Dave. I think Arthur's work is incredible. When you look at some of the actual story pages from Shamballa, they're pretty mind-blowing. Here's a link to some of his other work too. https://www.comicartfans.com/searchresult.asp?txtsearch=Arthur%20Ranson

Thanks! There's some great art there. I once inked Arthur on Count Duckula of all things. He's the only artist I can remember who actually wrote to me (via the Marvel UK office) to thank me for doing a good job. Nice guy.

That’s nice to hear. Count Duckula seems like a bizarre choice of commission. The Sapphire and Steel art on that site looked great. He’s so good with likenesses.
