The Endless - in colour |
| Bryan emailed me to say: "Just
received this from the guy who originally commissioned it
- a colour version of the image that you animated for the
site, by legendary American computer colourist Steve Oliff."

Bart and Homer Simpson
|
|
Bryan says about this image: "An American cartoon
writer proposed a Simpsons story to one of the Bongo Comics'
titles wherein Homer and Bart end up in a parallel world.
In this world everything's more "realistic" and they run
up against the totalitarian regime that controls the parallel.
They eventually triumph, of course, and return home. The
framing sequences at beginning and end would have been produced
in the usual Matt Groening style. I'd agreed to draw the
parallel world section and did this rough sketch to show
how I'd treat the characters. Any more realistic than this
and Bart and Homer start to be unrecognisable. Unfortunately
the editor decided that the story would be "too disturbing"."

Ragnarok video cover
|
|
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.

But the Goths are sick!
|
|
A mate of Bryan's saw this band called Katscan, who are
using one of Bryan's panels for their t-shirts. This page
has a large version of the panel, and a pic of a fan wearingthe
t-shirt.
The band are quite obviously anti Goth, because of the
sentiments expressed in the panel!
The band have a website
up and the t-shirt
for sale!

Fables spread inks |
| The inks for a double page spread
showing the Battle of the Yellow Bayou for the story Bag
O'Bones written by Bill Willingham for what we now know
will be Fables #11, to be published by DC Vertigo
in March next year. Bryan has pencilled and is inking it now.
Reproduced here by kind permission of DC Comics Inc.
Because the image is so big and detailed there are two versions:
a medium sized version and an
extremely large version. The
big one is huge and will take a glacial epoch to download,
so don't say you weren't warned!
Also check out the interview Bryan has given at the Wizard
World site, entitiled The
Fables of Bryan Talbot.
