 Cover Brian Lewis an artist that was present in the very early days of 2000ad if he had lived beyond 1978 he'd be just be one of 2000ads legendary art droids   having been a profilic artist throughout the 1950's and 60's  I first saw his art in Hammer Horror comics along with Brian Bolland  who I'll colour more of in the next episode 

 Art Brian Bolland -Star Scan first appeared in Titan edition of The Cursed Earth vol 1  -I'll also have a go at the Eagle comics covers linked to these stories starting with the next episode.

Hypsville 365ad Playlist Update 19

The Red & Blue Albums had to be done as the old albums have vanished to make room for newer stuff may stick all the old SR stuffon Youtube If I can figure out how to put mp3s together, but so busy colouring may not bother

Alan Whicker Mod..

One thing I miss alot around Christmas is John Peels festive 50 thought I'd try and recreate the experience although won't be as good but may create some new robo artists out of it like the Beached Bouys The Roys and The Darned.

Third David Bonie lp don't sound as good voice wise as the Udio (FFS get it sorted ) but it's got that proto glam superhero rock thing the real DB was going for back when he was playing in the Toby Jug in Tolworth lol

Third Sell-Outs long player produced by Steve Albino featuring Thom Yorkshireman from Nagshead on the track "Francis Rossi will have his Revenge on Wembley" should record a Nagshead Lp in 26 if Suno don't do a Udio,

1989 Debut of Rose Patrol a nod to Mani 2025 the year of Gutted

Ann Thrax "A Fistful of Thrash Metal"

Bootgazin' comp I'll slowley put together over the weeks

Wanted to get back into the Swing of things with Rat Pact who were so far ahead they were covering songs from the future. 

 Silver Ramons Christmas Single "Is It Christmas?"  may stick a few more novelty Crimbo tunes to this Various Artists  selection

 Probably slow down with this stuff over the Christmas season but then again...

 

 

 The  Oh No's first album  from March 1963 The Silver Ramons "trouble and strifes "(another excuse attempt the Mersey Sound

 An attempt at a Dirty Harry style soundtrack   for One Eyed Jack would make a good live action 1970's 

Cop Series . To the untrained brain this is what others call Slop but it's Astral Slop coming from my head 

 

 

Zenith Fan Art Colouring Project - Episode 1-"Dropping In" & Episode 2 "Blow Up"

 Chapter 1 & 2  of Zenith first printed in 2000ad back in 1987 in black and white at the time I'd buy two copies so I could colour various strips with felt tips  so this is second time around   I've attempted to do  this only it's  38 years later  and with photoshop , 38 years seems like  is a blink of the eye I remember the era vividly Boris Becker first Wimbeldon and Gilbert the Alien , two years away from leaving school , I even made a big folder for my art at school which had Zenith's logo and a Watchmen smiley -it actually felt like the times were a changin' - Finally after my last Zenith post we get to meet the titular character 

 

 

Seems like the many angled ones are back in 2025 we need Zenith more than ever -I wonder if anyone can convince Grant to write Zenith Phase 5 ? seeing as Red Dragons flying so high at the moment in 2000ad

Charleys War Fanart Colouring Project-Episode 15 + Charley (between the )Wars Episode 1& 2

I think Charley was actually back in Blighty during Christmas 1916 (but it'll be a few years  till I'll get to those pages)-It's been a  good while since I posted last episode https://johnohvision.blogspot.com/2023/11/charleys-war-colouring-project-episode.html but here's my latest colouring of Pat Mills and JOe Colquhoun's Charleys War

 

The next episodes a classic and introduces one of Pat Mills greatest  villians.

This page originally came out in 1979  whilst these below are the start of Scott Goodalls Second World War  era Charley which came out in 1985 in Battle Action Force weekly ( which may or may not be reprinted one day) ,  Not the greatest sized  scans but I did enjoy colouring Joes work on these  he truly is the main man. (soon to get a Apex Edition  too just like the 2000ad artists)

 

More Joe in colour when I attempt to colour another early Johnny Red episode plus more from  Pat with the Cursed Earth episode 4 which should pop up here soon.(it's a race between about 8 different stories at the moment)

Zenith Fan Art Colouring Project -"Whitlock & Prolouge : Ground Zero"

 Back to the second summer of love 1987 and the mighty Zenith 

Something I've been working on over the summer up to now  , thought I'd  dip my feet into Superhero genre cept he's more like my type of Superhero  Grant Morrison &  Steve Yeowell's Zenith  : Phase One .Letters by Mark King (always thought it was bass player from Level 42 at the time these came out lol] honourable mention to Brenden McCarthy who came up with character designs  

I'll start at the proper start introduction to MaxiMan  "Whitlock" which appeared after The Prolouge by a year but stories in the correct order  of events

 

Good to see Zeniths universe back in 2000ad after a 35 or so years in  Rob Williams , Patrick Goddard  Steve Yeowell and Dylan Teagues Red Dragon  .

 I'll post the first episode  where Zen boy appears once I get other projects out the way (almost completed Judge Anderson plus, Cursed Earth episodes but next up will be a few episodes of Charleys War which I aim to complete for Armistace day 

But who is this Zenith geezer anyway? he  hasn't even turned up in story yet  I'll let 2000ad  explain
