Brian Bolland: a comic-book genius redux (interview).
Ed and Jim score a nearly two hour long interview with legendary comic-book artist Brian Bolland, best known in the United Kingdom as one of the definitive Judge Dredd artists for the British comic 2000 AD. He led the ‘British Invasion’ of the American comics industry and created the artwork for DC Comics’ first direct-market […]

Warning! Warning! ‘Judge Dredd: The Dark Judges’ is a super little book but beware duplicating stuff you may already have.
