- OLHA ISSO. AGORA.

é o pedaço da página que escrevi e meu camarada desenhou pra antologia inglesa JUST ONE PAGE. é uma revista anual e beneficente; é vendida a 5 Libras ou 10 Dólares pela internet e na Convenção de HQ de Bristol em Maio. a desse ano tem como tema `personagens britânicos` e fiz uma homenagem ao ST SWITHIN`S DAY, graphic novel do Grant Morrison sobre um indie revoltado com a vida que escreve na testa NEUROTIC BOY OUTSIDER e vai tentar matar a Margareth Thatcher [quando ela era Primeira Ministra]. é como ter uma banda e participar de um dsco tributo. a sensação de estar publicado logo no fim do mês é legal pra caralho. e ainda ao lado de uns pros do cacete. release da HQ:

Just 1 Page is a collaboration of artists and writers
from the whole range of the British comics community.
Each contributor sends one page featuring a character
with a connection to the theme. It can be a pin-up, a
strip or a text piece.

This time the theme is British comics characters, and
already we have a startling range of interpretations -
from Minnie the Minx to Modesty Blaise, from Jack Staff
to John Constantine, from Judge Dredd to Fungus the
Bogeyman, from Rupert the Bear to Promethea, from Dennis
the Menace to Halo Jones, from Alan Moore to Andy Capp !
And MANY MORE.

Featuring the best of British comics. Professionals who
have donated original art include Al Davison, Charlie
Adlard, Gary Northfield, Paul J Holden, Mike Collins,
Peter Gross, Mike Hawthorne, Dave Windett, Gary Spencer
Millidge, Trevor Hairsine, Len O´Grady, Adi Tantimedh,
and Hunt Emerson

Others who have contributed text or otherwise include
Leo Baxendale (who has given a one page preview of his
forthcoming book about his career at The Beano), Bryan
Talbot, Chris Weston, Mike Carey, Rob Williams, Simon
Furman, Euan Kerr, Peter Hogan, Lee "Budgie" Barnett
(co-creatorof the Festival`s popular and controversial
HYPOTHETICALS).
