The Show Must Go On....





Been really impressed with the stuff that Declan Shalvey (my successor on Freakshow) has been doing on the new book, especially on the stuff that's yet to see print. Hope everybody picked up the first issue of his run, which is still available I think, and gave a good checkin' out. Really tight stuff, especially his storytelling abilities. I remember a few years back when Dec showed us his samples at the Atomic Diner booth at Bristol, and it was far and away the best stuff we'd seen that day. I'm really glad he's picked up the baton and bloody run with it, cos it means our little book is still kickin' ass and takin' names. Makes a parent proud.... sniff. Feeling all nostalgic for the 'show now.... heres a few pages from my run wich weren't QUITE as bad as the rest, and also the original character design sketches from way back. My first pro job in comics, thank you Mr. Robert Curley!

Aw Stephen, you're such a sweetheart. Thanks for the shout out, but you know well that anyone who has drawn Freak Show is a hack!
