During the years when UKCAC was Britain's biggest comic convention many artists contributed art to the convention booklet which was later auctioned for charity.
So, although some might think the NEW MUTANTS page was drawn for one of the Marvel yearbooks, this was a charity piece.
DR and Quinch were very popular in the UK and really easy to draw, so I used the con-sketches as an opportunity to have some fun...
... And what is more fun than laughing at the idiotic antics of a real jerk. These two pages are based on incidents, involving the same guy, that occurred at UKCAC and GLASCAC.
Yes, another true incident. And if you're looking in John, Mike Conroy and I still have the photographs.
AKA was a small independent comic shop in Glasgow that was owned and run by a group of really great guys who gave me a lot of support in my early career.
When the British fanzine 'SHORTFUSE' was raised in a discussion on the THY TE site, I couldn't remember how many sketches I had contributed but I checked my files and found these three. I inked the Captain Britain myself and the DR and Quinch may well be my first ever collaboration with Paul Neary.
The inked version of this image was reprinted in the Modern Masters book so I include the pencils here.
