Think it might have been mentioned that he's doing it, but I can't remember what thread and, frankly, who cares.  With news this good you want to spread it.  There's a link somewhere to some images I think.

Same here, although I must admit that outside of Sandman Mystery Theatre and his work on some of the original World of Darkness RPG books I've no idea what else he's been up to.

To Wikipedia!

Most importantly, good-looking judges ... it's good to see an established US artist who clearly gets it ...

Cheers

I love Guy Davis' work. :D

This is going to be a treat, even though it does involve buying the Meg.

Nice! Rob- how'd this come about? Did you lure him in with your wiles?

No! Not the dreaded Williams Wiles!

No, I just... asked. He genuinely loves the old Cursed Earth Dredd stories so that was obviously the appeal for him rather than any huge desire to work with me, I'm sure.

With Guy Davis onboard you don't even need a script: just have (in the Marvel Style) Dredd ride into town, fight and kill a mutant monster and slap speech balloons on afterwards: job's a good 'un! Sit back, unzip and enjoy the art (and the great colouring, never to be overlooked).
