Excalibur without Captain Britain?

I'd always assumed that "Kenny Who?" was Cam Kennedy himself, and that "The Art of Kenny Who?" was intended as a comment on the US comic industry's attitude towards the UK talent that it had begun to employ.

Great news!

Looks like I was right.

Your art is already cool, Cesar. It reminds me a little of Frank Quitely, another artist that isn't mainstream.

I was wondering that, too.

OK. That'll teach me for being all enthusiastic.

Alan, would it be possible to create some artwork featuring some generic super-types that aspiring comic artists could download and practise on? That way you could actively discourage misuse of copyrighted material while simultaneously encouraging and inspiring young artists!

Just a suggestion!

I have a vaguely related question for you, Alan.

If you could no longer find work as a comic artist, what would you do? Would you work as an artist in other media, or do something completely different?

ClanDestine!!!

If only!

Great! Thanks Alan!

Hi Alan. I seem to recall that during the eighties you designed some page borders for Marvel UK. They consisted of a space at the top of the page for the character's name and a story recap, and a picture of the character down the left-hand side. I think there was a Captain America, an Iron Man and a...

I don't understand why Marvel felt that those pictures needed re-inking.

If I can just put on my anorak for a second, the invisible in shadows thing was introduced in X-Men #102, which was drawn by Dave Cockrum, not John Byrne.

I've just noticed how similar the cover to Killraven #1 is to the cover of Amazing Adventures #18. Was this intended as an homage, or completely unintentional?

1) My real name is Matt. :) 2) I'm from Worcester, UK. 3) I'm 31. 4) My favourite Alan Davis work is probably ClanDestine, though I have great affection for Captain Britain. 5) My first comic was probably an issue of Hulk Weekly way back in 1979. 6) On the Thyte forum I was known as Typhoid Mary. :)
