Podcasting!




Rich 'Blue Meanie' McAuliffe from the brilliant Everything Comes Back To 2000AD podcast asked me to co-present (pretentious, moi?) a special show with him celebrating our top 10 covers of last year.

This is the specially designed podcast companion post where you can actually see the covers we're drunkenly trying to describe with links to how each was made. Having not heard the podcast yet, I hope I don't come across as too much of a twerp on it and any listeners can understand my ridiculous Mackem accent (that's Mackem, NOT Geordie alright!?!)

Soooo, first, I'll list Rich's top 10 followed by my own. Oh, and as I said on the podcast, it really was an impossible task with many others I shoulda put on there and, of the 10 chosen, the order changes by the minute! Here we go with Rich's 10 then, click the hyperlink above each picture to see how it was created!

Finally, we named our covers of the year so far and not suprisingly, our favourite cover artists of last year had already become our favourite artists of this year! Rich chose Karl Richardson's action packed Devil's Island cover of Prog 1718...


Where as I went for Jon Davis-Hunt's glorious Elson-esque Kingdom cover for Prog 1717...
