Re: FRANK QUITELY - BBC PROFILE
I watched it last night. It was interesting to listen to Vince going through his process from getting the script to finishing the art.
I started to say something sensible but my parents took over my brain!

Thanks, JT!
I liked Franks' pastiche on the BROONS: 'the GREENS', also his Missionary Man stuff for the JUDGE DREDD MEGAZINE.

You missed out his Shimura, which has got to be up there with the best of British comics. I first found out about Frank's work when I got issue 10 of Electric Soup (or Leccy Soop in the vernacular). I was amazed by it and thought this guy is brilliant. I was surprised that he had not been picked up by anyone else at the time. Fast forward a couple of years and I find his work in the Megazine. I was dead chuffed to think that I had "spotted" a rising star before he hit the big leagues.ISPYSHHHGUY wrote:Thanks, JT!

Hopefully, he can be persuaded to be a guest at Glasgow Comic Con this year.
