To make up for it, here's a cover process I did for <a href="http://2000ad.com/index.php">2000AD</a> prog 2123 for the return of Kingmaker Book 2 (COLLECTED EDITION OUT IN APRIL!) written by the Dwarf Lord Ian Edginton, drawn by me, the Elven pool boy, and lettered by the dragon wrangler Ellie DeVille.....<br />

Ok, so here are a bunch of original pages from Book One of KINGMAKER-- an alien invasion of "Middle Earth" story which debuted earlier this year in 2000AD prog 2011, written by Ian Edginton and drawn and coloured by myself. All pages are fineliners/ black markers on A3 bristol board and will also include a 2000AD sized print of the final colour page.</div>

Hey guys, earlier in the year I did a video for <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLQZ5Ykw_9yZBw4n8zYBZkIaKAtmQ_3Cp">2000AD's "From The Drawing Board" Youtube series</a>, showing my art process on this Kingmaker (2000AD prog 2015) cover! Hope you like it!<br />

Me again! Sleep is still alluding me tonight, so here's another Kingmaker process page from <a href="https://www.2000adonline.com/">2000AD</a>!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
This was an important page with a massive reveal that <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Edginton">Ian Edginton</a> wrote for the first episode that I just HAD to get right. Ok, spoilers, but basically we make you think this is a Lord of the Rings-esque tale until you see.... THE BIG ASS SPACESHIP APPEAR ABOVE THE ARMIES!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ian wanted the ship to look a cross between an oil refinery and a Rococo palace. So I went with that and created these pencils. I always had a clear image of the angle I wanted for this shot.</div>

And here's the final image. When I picture space ships in my head, I always see LIGHTS EVERYWHERE! And you wouldn't belieeeeeeeve how long I AGONIZED over how much to fade out the main ship in the background. Happy with it though.</div>

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Helloooooo.... been a while, so I thought I'd kick off with a little something from Kingmaker which debuted in <a href="https://www.2000adonline.com/">2000AD </a>this year! Basically, Kingmaker is a dream project for me. Here's the elevator pitch: It's an alien invasion of Middle Earth. BOOM.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It's gloriously written by my buddy and Grand Wizard <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ian_Edginton">Ian Edginton</a>, drawn and coloured by myself, the sexy elfen stable boy, and lettered by the lovely dragon tamer Ellie Deville. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is actually the first series that The Mighty Tharg has allowed me to colour myself, so it was a massive undertaking for me but I bloody loved it! Here's how I made the first episode's double page spread....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
First up, my rough layout. It's actually more detailed than my usual roughs, probably due to the fact that I was overthinking this opening episode. For this scene I think I had to design the look of around five different armies fighting around the main armoured bad guy, The Wraith King.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-i-6jLBXGocg/WQ5ZlAncdqI/AAAAAAAACoo/FxHX6mKlGiw8W7nnlNilgsTY2BBBxxlNwCEw/s1600/BATTLE%2BROUGH%2B2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-i-6jLBXGocg/WQ5ZlAncdqI/AAAAAAAACoo/FxHX6mKlGiw8W7nnlNilgsTY2BBBxxlNwCEw/s320/BATTLE%2BROUGH%2B2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Next up, pencils. I made sure to draw this on a single sheet of A2 bristol board instead of taping two A3 sheets together. More of a bugger to scan, but nicer to have as a single sheet in the end. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
After a looooong time, I finally get to colouring, which is made easier now that I have a Ugee 19 inch drawing monitor. Soooooo much easier from the days where I used to colour my covers using just a mouse...... *shudder*..... Here's my flat colours.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JJW6Ql7bRqc/WQ5Zvsm01RI/AAAAAAAACog/2WWHZ6XVmVM963CH3x8sWkHXjd6w8FcjQCLcB/s1600/KM%2BEP1%2BP2-3%2Bflats.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="211" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-JJW6Ql7bRqc/WQ5Zvsm01RI/AAAAAAAACog/2WWHZ6XVmVM963CH3x8sWkHXjd6w8FcjQCLcB/s320/KM%2BEP1%2BP2-3%2Bflats.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<br />
And here we come to the final image, with all my shading, fading, blood splatter, highlights, etc..... Pretty proud with how it turned out in the end, and I think it set a good bench mark for the rest of the series. Hope you like it, and there'll be more Kingmaker process posts coming up!<br />

Man.... I REALLY need to update this blog and tell you about the new series KINGMAKER that I'm working on, as well as the recent Royal Mail stamp job I helped on, but for now, I'll just tell you that I'll be at this weekend's wonderful <a href="http://www.lillecomicsfestival.com/">LILLE COMICS FESTIVAL</a> where I'll be doing the usual sketches, selling prints, books and original art!<br />
<br />
See you there!<br />

Yup, after being serialised weekly in <a href="http://www.2000adonline.com/">2000AD</a>, then later over a 5 issue american format mini series, <b>AQUILA: BLOOD OF THE ICENI</b>, is now collected in one 176 page volume! BOOM!!!! You can find it in all good stores or <a href="http://shop.2000adonline.com/products/aquila_blood_of_the_iceni">digitally from the official 2000AD store here!</a><br />
<br />
Written by Gordon Rennie, drawn by myself with an additional brilliant story drawn by Patrick Goddard, coloured by Dylan Teague and Gary Caldwell, lettered by Simon Bowland, Annie Parkhouse, Ellie De Ville, featuring an awesome cover by Karl Richardson!<br />
<br />
It's a lovely package and there'll certainly be some pages in there which should make you go <b><i>"PWHOOOOAAARRR...."</i></b><br />
<br />
We've been getting great reviews, with <a href="http://comicsalliance.com/best-comic-books-ever-this-week-new-releases-for-april-15-2015/">Comics Alliance</a> previously stating <b><i>"Aquila is a smart choice for a standalone book, and the creative team is one of 2000AD's best."</i></b><br />
<br />
The latest SFX magazine gave us a <b><i>4 out of 5 </i></b>review.<br />
<br />
My dad said <b><i>"Do you get more money from this?"</i></b><br />

Those last two pages are still favourites of mine....<br />

<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-q4UD-uaN33A/VmApF4ZsvXI/AAAAAAAACVs/ZXLA1wfyBd4/s1600/2000-AD-Prog-1958-1-574dc.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-q4UD-uaN33A/VmApF4ZsvXI/AAAAAAAACVs/ZXLA1wfyBd4/s320/2000-AD-Prog-1958-1-574dc.jpg" width="243" /></a></div>
<br />
And so came the day when The Mighty Tharg did the unthinkable.... A SUPERHERO COVER ON 2000AD!!!<br />
<br />
Utter madness you say, but hold those spanking paddles everyone. It's relevant to the issue's Defoe storyline where Defoe faces off against 17th century London's "pseudo heroes"!<br />
<br />
Tharg sat alone in his chamber, and whispered to himself, "There's only one man who can do this.... The Most Handsome Man In Comics...."<br />
<br />
And so I was teleported to The Nerve Centre where he demanded that I create a cover based on this panel I drew in the episode......<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-njLG-47nVW0/VmApF5R0NcI/AAAAAAAACV0/81nRPwoPKso/s1600/2000-AD-Prog-1958-3-93fcb.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-njLG-47nVW0/VmApF5R0NcI/AAAAAAAACV0/81nRPwoPKso/s320/2000-AD-Prog-1958-3-93fcb.jpg" width="243" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"Can I colour it mostly red like my other covers? Most people seem to like that, and it's piss easy!" I asked....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"NO, YOU LAZY FECKER! DO IT PROPERLY!!!" Tharg bellowed! His eyes burning like a thousand suns....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"Ahh bollocks." I said, before getting to work.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here's my rough pencils. Quite a squeeze with 7 characters!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-S80Aya2rJCc/VmApHfdsj6I/AAAAAAAACWc/hdQbW9KSOkE/s1600/cover%2Brough.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-S80Aya2rJCc/VmApHfdsj6I/AAAAAAAACWc/hdQbW9KSOkE/s320/cover%2Brough.jpg" width="259" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I then tightened up my pencils, swapping a couple of characters over to make the cooler ones more visible.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Colouring 7 characters took a while. Mainly the flatting which is always a ball ache. Slight grey wash layer added.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-R1uF-LtRBso/VmApHoE-rgI/AAAAAAAACWg/rhnrWS78Wpk/s1600/NO%2BBG%2BSML.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-R1uF-LtRBso/VmApHoE-rgI/AAAAAAAACWg/rhnrWS78Wpk/s320/NO%2BBG%2BSML.jpg" width="243" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And then I added a cool sky background, with some extra photoshopped airbrushing and a hazy overlay added.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rkO_e2mLZ5c/VmApFzzrcJI/AAAAAAAACWA/n9Zy03yhXiw/s1600/COLOUR%2BSML.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-rkO_e2mLZ5c/VmApFzzrcJI/AAAAAAAACWA/n9Zy03yhXiw/s320/COLOUR%2BSML.jpg" width="241" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
So then it was sent to 2000AD's production droids of which you can see the final cover at the top of this post!<br />

<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BKBm7Kng2iI/ViAGMopoSTI/AAAAAAAACUk/9Ue2wdEnR-c/s1600/1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BKBm7Kng2iI/ViAGMopoSTI/AAAAAAAACUk/9Ue2wdEnR-c/s320/1.jpg" width="243" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So my alien editor, The Mighty Tharg says to me, "Leigh, you're the most handsome artist I have, and I need a cover for part 3 of Defoe:The London Hanged, but I know you're pretty pressed for time, so I was thinking of offering it to someone else..."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I was like, "Nooooooooooooooooo!!!!!! I can fit it in honest! Don't get someone else to draw my baby! And thanks for calling me handsome!"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So he was like, "Ok, I was thinking of Defoe surrounded by the zombies like at the end of episode 2."</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I was like, "Cool! I had an image in my head of the leader of the zombies lurched over Defoe with zombies hanging from his fingertips, like a puppeteer. Goes with the theme of The London Hanged. How's this rough for you?"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Then Tharg was like, "That's brilliant Leigh! Not only are you really, really good looking, but you're also brainy to think of such a clever idea. Get to it!"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And then I shook his Gibbleschlong and got to work! First with some photo reference! Look at me all macho!</div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then I whack it in Photoshop to colour! Due to having not much time, I went for a simple colour scheme, trying to pass it off as clever design.... sssshhhh, don't tell anyone....</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But knowing that the glaring red may be too similar to a <a href="http://leighgallagherart.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/making-of-2000ad-prog-1836-defoe-cover.html">previous Defoe cover I did, as shown here</a>, I thought I'd give Tharg an alternative, and so did this light blue version....</div>
<br />

Tharg was happy to use the red version , and you can see the final cover with text at the start of this post!<br />

(And yes, Defoe has lost a little weight by staying away from 17th century Krispy Kremes...)<br />

You can find the <a href="http://www.comicbookresources.com/comic-previews/aquila-5-2000ad-2015">CBR preview here</a> (with a gorgeously creepy <a href="http://www.rustybaby.com/">Dave Kendall</a> cover), but here's the interior pages written by Gordon Rennie, drawn by me, coloured by<a href="http://dylansdrawingboard.blogspot.co.uk/"> Dylan Teague</a> and lettered by Annie Parkhouse....</div>

I hope you enjoy it! I'll do some more Aquila "making of" features soon when the dust has settled.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Available in all good comics shops now, or <a href="http://shop.2000adonline.com/products/aquila_5">digitally at the 2000AD online store!</a></div>

<div>
It marks my final trip into the world of Aquila. Drawing two separate historical fantasy strips (this and Defoe) for <a href="http://www.2000adonline.com/">2000AD</a> can get a bit much sometimes with all the research involved, so I'm aching to do some sci-fi!!!!</div>

Well it's time to don your loin cloth once more as the entire sage is being repackaged as a 5 issue US format series, OUT NOW!<br />

<br />
I was pleasantly surprised to see that it had a really nice quality glossy cover that feels so nice on my face, and reviews have been great! <a href="http://comicsalliance.com/best-comic-books-ever-this-week-new-releases-for-april-15-2015/">Comics Alliance say</a>, " Aquila is a smart choice for a standalone book, and the creative team is one of 2000AD's best."<br />

We're off to France!!!! <br />
<br />
Hey guys, just letting you know that the lovely folk at the <a href="http://www.lillecomicsfestival.com/">LILLE COMICS FESTIVAL</a> were kind enough to invite me to their show this weekend, where I shall be sketching, selling original art and prints!<br />
<br />
I'll be joined by a host of fellow 20000AD droids!<br />
<br />
They asked us each to draw a limited print for them, depicting a mashup of a movie poster and comics characters. Here's my Ghostbusters/ Judge Death!<br />

<div>
<br /></div>
Hey guys, I have a couple of exciting convention appearances coming up before the end of the year! <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
For my first one, myself and PR droid Michael Molcher have kindly been invited and will be representing <a href="http://www.2000adonline.com/">2000AD</a> at this week's <a href="http://www.maltacomicsexpo.com/home">MALTA COMICS EXPO on Friday 31st October till November 2nd!</a></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'm guessing I'll be sketching most of the time, as well as providing the eye candy for the 2000AD booth.... I'll bring along some original art to sell as well from Dredd, Defoe and Aquila. Have to remember bring my mankini...</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Should be a great show! Hope to see you there!</div>

Did ya miss me??! No? WELL FINE!!! SEE IF I CARE!!! (Sniff...)<br />
<br />
So yeah, sorry for the blog silence. Having a baby kind of side tracked a lot of things, but I've been working hard in the background and in tomorrow's<a href="http://www.2000adonline.com/"> 2000AD</a> prog 1890 you can find the return of AQUILA in "CARNIFEX", written by Gordon Rennie, drawn by me, coloured by <a href="http://dylansdrawingboard.blogspot.co.uk/">Dylan Teague</a> and lettered by Annie Parkhouse!!!!<br />
<br />
There's a preview of all the stories in the prog from a wealth of talented fellow droids on the <a href="http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=preview&id=22584">CBR site HERE</a>.<br />
<br />
Here's the lovely cover digitally painted by<a href="http://tankskullx66.deviantart.com/"> Karl Richardson</a> (<a href="http://2000adcovers.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/karl-richardson-karlifacts.html">with a making of it on 2000AD UNCOVERED here!</a>). Always fantastic to see another artist's take on a character you've co-created, and he did us proud!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RIX6GD8x9so/U8VTfueVisI/AAAAAAAACMY/rchDGhA5eg8/s1600/2000-AD-Prog-1890-digital-1-4181e.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RIX6GD8x9so/U8VTfueVisI/AAAAAAAACMY/rchDGhA5eg8/s1600/2000-AD-Prog-1890-digital-1-4181e.jpg" width="243" /></a></div>
<br />
And speaking of a "making of", I've not done one for a while, so here's how the first not one, but TWO pages of the first episode were put together, starting with a brilliant script from Gordon Rennie....<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CnQsaUD-zRo/U8VTlTqqUzI/AAAAAAAACMg/OzuUriIo2Tk/s1600/script.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-CnQsaUD-zRo/U8VTlTqqUzI/AAAAAAAACMg/OzuUriIo2Tk/s1600/script.jpg" width="206" /></a></div>
<br />
After scratching my head a lot, not because of a rash or anything, but because I have to get back into Roman research mode, I created these loose pencilled pages. I was pretty happy with the layout of the first page with a nice dramatic opening for our hero. It's just a shame that the ferocious man-goat kills Aquila on the third page, making it the shortest series ever.... ;)<br />

<br />
Well THIS was totally unexpected!<br />
<br />
First up, the lovely guys at the 2000AD fan site <a href="http://2000ad.wordpress.com/2013/12/13/the-ecbt2000ad-covers-of-the-year/">EVERYTHING COMES BACK TO 2000AD</a> voted for their top five covers of 2013, and I was totally honoured to be their number one, despite some ridiculously strong competition!<br />
<br />
THEN, not long after, the <a href="http://forums.2000adonline.com/index.php/topic,39938.0.html">official 2000AD forum had their own vote off, and I won again!</a><br />
<br />
As I told the guys, I'm very humbled by this, especially as I know that Defoe isn't one of 2000AD's "A-listers", so it's great to see him get some props!<br />
<br />
Anyway, if you'd like to revisit the making of this cover, <a href="http://leighgallagherart.blogspot.co.uk/2013/06/making-of-2000ad-prog-1836-defoe-cover.html">make with the clicky here!</a><br />
<br />
And uncomfortably long hugs to everyone that voted!<br />
<br />

<br />
I should say that another reason I was ecstatic to have another crack at Judge Dredd, is because I wanted this opportunity to slightly "tweak" my version of him. Here's the thing: there's WAY TOO MANY talented artists with their own takes on him, that I wanted mine to stand out too (apart from the old man scrotum face look that I'm known for).<br />
<br />
So I tried to go for a look that was the opposite to what a lot of my friends do with him:<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
(My rough design approved by Tharg.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Thinner, sleaker, a blacker look with no highlights, a collar closer to the movie version, a thicker zip, and "tread marks" down his chest.<br />
<br />
A slight problem: even though I LOVE Chris Blythe's colouring on this, (it's some of the best I've seen him do!) as is the case sometimes, it's printed a touch too dark, and so it's hard to make out some of my new uniform tweaks. So here is my inked version of Dredd's appearance in the episode.....<br />

<div>
As you can see, it left a lot of interpretation up to myself, but I realised that in order to be able to show all the zombies, I'd have to add panels to identify them all properly.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But first, a day trip to The Tower of London was essential so I could get shots like this:</div>
<div>
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
And I couldn't help but take some like this....<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
They were a massive help creating this, first, in pencil, noting that I made sure to add enough panels to feature all the zombies he wanted me to highlight, as well as establish The Brethren on top of the Tower (make with the clicky!)....</div>

<br />
<br />
Believe it or not, I don't have an incredible body (I know,you're STUNNED!). Like most comic artists I spend most of my day at the drawing table, not getting much exercise.<br />
<br />
When it comes to drawing comic characters I still use myself as reference for whatever body type it is (male/female/donkey/fat/skinny/muscular) and just adjust accordingly.<br />
<br />
BUT NO MORE I SAY!!!! I wanted to improve as an artist, and so asked around for recommendations for an artist's model that would also look good on my shelf. My buddy and incredible Marvel Comics artist, <a href="http://www.mikeperkinsart.com/">Mike Perkins</a>, put me in the direction of<a href="http://artistsanatomy.com/"> artistsanatomy.com</a> and I'm so glad he did!<br />

<br />
The muscle definition is exactly what I was after, it's a beautiful sculpture, and at 12 inches tall, looks great on my shelf! I couldn't recommend it more, and will be using it in a few weeks when I start the next book of <a href="http://leighgallagherart.blogspot.co.uk/2012/11/2000ad-aquila-original-art-for-sale.html">2000AD's AQUILA</a>!<br />
