Here bits from all the Anderson I drew. First was Triad. Love at first sight. A complex character plus opportunity for experiment with layout and techniques. Brian Bolland first drew her - a lot to live up to. Wanting to make Cassandra my own she was given new face, hair style and flat shoes - because I can be terribly literal for a comic-book drawer and thought Cass unable to run in the high heels Brian had given her. A decision I later occassionally regreted.

The stories, all by Alan Grant, were Triad, Shamballa, The Witch? Report, R*evolution, Reasons to be cheerful, Postcards from the Edge pt.4, The Jesus Syndrome, Satan, The Protest, WMD, Half-life, Lock-in, City of the Dead, Lucid, the last four stories connected.

Lock-in
Lock-in
Half Life
Half life. No border around 'not real' bits. My practice to distinguish two different realities.

City of Dead
Satan. Smug having done this without use of white paint. Disappionted that Alan's plan for alternative reality 'Silver Surfer' storyline for these characters vetoed by 2000AD editor ( Dave Bishop?).
Satan
wmd - double page spread
Satan. Bottom left frame has foreground figure, see through holo, figure beyond that, another holo, figure beyond that then background. To see if I could. Did any one notice?

Reasons to be cheerfull
The Protest
. . but later, on JD business, in uniform. Her self-image, my self interest - not to have Cass look vulnerable or like a nutter or porn star. City of the Dead

Triad. Jagged skull technique - multiple copies of drawing each cut into slightly varied strips and pasted.

Cover - I had imagined this being cropped so background filled page.
