The Official Bryan Talbot fanpage / What's New
 

What's no longer new on the site

- but I'm damned if I am ever removing content page

 

This page contains the oldest stuff on the site: I actually started this page in 1996, but I did not see the idea of whats new pages until 1997 - see the earliest entry below - and promptly stole the idea, as is traditional on the Net. Check out the other whats new pages: numbers one, two and three.

Friday October 30th 1998
Well, I have finally realised a long-time ambition and placed a new thumbnail gallery on the site which contains the first ever appearance of Luther in print: it is a complete strip called the Papist Affair, and it's thumbnail gallery is at The Papist Affair Thumbnail Gallery or you can go straight to each issue at: Issue One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six and Seven. Of course this meant that the new Text Gallery Two had to be updated too....

Wednesday October 28th 1998
Well it had to happen... the old text only gallery guide, giving a text based description and link into every image page on the site has finally got too big and was therefore defeating it's purpose of quick download and speedy access to each image page... so I have split it into two, at text gallery one and text gallery two. Of course this meant that the overall guide to the galleries had to be updated as well, but who's counting?!

Monday October 26th 1998
Added the Fairy Caravan image into Gallery 4.... check it out, it is beautiful!

Thursday October 22nd 1998
Added the interview with Bryan about One Bad Rat, which was originally published on the Boston Phoenix website.

I have finally registered a domain name for the site and it has gone live! We are now at http://www.bryan-talbot.com... if you are looking at the old site then could you update your bookmarks to the new one? I am also in the process of slowly telling all of the search engines where we are, and putting in re-directs at the old site.

Monday December 8th '97
