This is a text only guide to
the images on the site of Bryan's: I have created it so that there is
more than one way to browse the images and you can choose whichever method
suits you best. Also in the Textgallery series is Textgallery
Six, Textgallery Five, Textgallery
Four, Textgallery Three, Textgallery
Two and Textgallery One; alternatively,
there are the thumbnail galleries, and the best list of those are on the
gallery guide page; and finally for those
that just want to see the images with minimum hassle then there is a single
page with a link to every image on the site in the image
page navigator.
On this page, there are links to the images from wallpaper gallery. Bryan
suggested that I add to the site a list of all of the complete strips
that are on it, and the strip
listing is the result.

Ragnarok |
|
|
Ragnarok was a project started by Bryan when he was approached
by the animation company looking for ideas. He put them in touch
with the then unknown writer Alan Moore who created the character
and story. Bryan then designed the character and did the cover and
logo artwork (which, by the way, was never returned so if you see
it give us a shout). The animation artwork was done by a variety
of young up and coming artists and featured Mike Collin's first
professional work.
Because this image is a video cover there are two pages: one of
the entire cover
(which is a page that's a lot wider than normal!) and one
showing the front cover only.

Batman |
|
|
A fellow fan emailed me this set of four pics by Bryan,
with a note saying:
"I don't know if you'd be interested in the
attached for your site. Bryan did some cover work in the early '80s
for a UK published series which collected together classic DC comics
superhero reprints. If the quality of these scans is a bit dodgy
it's because the comics themselves are a bit elderly and well read.
I'm afraid I can't do much about the text boxes either... sorry!
Hope they're useful."
The first of these is of Batman.
