I’ll be about 80 and on my deathbed and still going, ‘It’s about time I grew up now.’ In the early 2000s Bisley was commissioned to create artwork for the drum kit used by System of a Down drummer John Dolmayan, an avid comic book collector and vendor. Dolmayan commissioned Bisley to illustrate the Hulk and Thing on one drum, while the art for other drums in the kit, which depicted other characters and scenes, were produced by Kevin Eastman, Tim Vigil, and Arthur Adams. [5] Influences [ edit ] A lot of people didn’t know I was going to be here. So it’s been a little weird. They didn’t advertise ‘til quite late. Oh wait, we’re doing the interview now, are we? On the other end of the spectrum for you… I found an interview from around – oh jeez – probably from ’93 or ’94 in Tripwire Magazine that was between you and Grant [Morrison] , talking about art – specifically fine art. And one of the first things that you say in this interview is that art is pretentious.

Batman/ Judge Dredd: Judgement on Gotham (with John Wagner and Alan Grant, 1991) ISBN 1-56389-022-4 Priča na početku ovog prvog dela je dosta konfuzna, pa čak i zamorna. Milion nekih bogova, kraljeva, plemena... ne može čovek da pohvata sve odjednom. Imala sam osećaj da mi treba pomoćni papir da pribeležim gde je ko i šta je ko. Međutim, ispostavilo se da polako sve dođe na svoje kako radnja odmiče. Problem je verovatno i što nisam čitala ništa od priča koje ovoj prethode.

Simon Bisley

Timed to coincide with the 35th anniversary of its first publication in 2000 AD in 1989, this new edition of Pat Mills and Simon Bisley’s groundbreaking and best-selling collection will feature brand new scans – meaning readers will be able to see its fully-painted art in unprecedented new detail. Pat Mills’ writing and editorial career started in Dundee, working for D.C. Thomson on the teenage romance magazine Romeo. Later he went freelance and started a long relationship with IPC Magazines, initially writing for girl’s titles like Tammy, Pink and Sandy. He then worked with Malcolm Shaw on devising Jinty before moving over to rejuvenate boy’s comics. He created Battle (with John Wagner), Action, Misty and 2000 AD. Other notable works include Marshal Law, ‘Third World War’ in Crisis, and Requiem Vampire Knight. They’ll have to. Someone came up to me a few days ago and she says, “Simon?” I said, “What?” She said, “Have you got a lawyer?” I said, “Why?” She explained to me what’s going on with all of this. And I think we’ll all be affected by it at some point, because once they use my name, they’ll want to use people like… Again, Bill [Sienkiewicz]. I cite Bill a lot, I know, because Bill represents to me that kind of fine art, unpretentious style. Ko voli fantastiku, keltsku mitologiju, stil 80-tih, fazon glam metala (jer "metal je rat" 😎), ovo je prava stvar. Meni dovoljno bilo da otvorim, vidim par tabli - na njima zmajeve, patuljke, polugole divljake koji se kolju, dominantne nage žene... i kupljeno bez mnogo razmišljanja.

The cast also included Ayoola Smart as Niamh, Gemma Whelan as Medb/Megrim, and Stephen Hogan as chief baddie Lord Weird Slough Fegg. Eventually, even though he had no experience in comics strip drawing at the time, he was hired by the magazine 2000 AD after they saw his interpretations of their magazine characters. According to the Comic Book Database, "while still a student, Bisley did a painting of a robot holding a baby that he sent to the offices of 2000 AD. The image was seen by Pat Mills and inspired him to relaunch the ABC Warriors strip, with Bisley as artist, in 1987".

[laughs] No, it’s not necessarily weird. It’s not weird. Just sort of realizing that you’re a few more steps nearer the grave. Your life’s got to a point, to a degree.
