reblogging 2000adonline:

“We are very saddened to hear of the death of artist Brett Ewins.

“Throughout his years of working for 2000 AD, Brett was responsible for some truly unmissable art – from Judge Dredd and Anderson Psi Division to Rogue Trooper and his incredible work on Bad Company with Peter Milligan and Jim McCarthy.

“He was also a hugely influential figure in British comics thanks to his founding of Deadline with Steve Dillon in 1988, something that changed the face of the industry forever.

“Our thoughts and deepest condolences are with Brett’s family and friends.”

Brett’s work had a huge influence on me in the way I saw comic story telling. I actually wrote an essay on this very issue containing ‘The Haunting of Sector House 9’ when I was studying.

Early Xmas present for me from the team at We Are Hermits, my contributor’s copy of issue one of Strange Altars!!

The theme for this issue is food.

It features beautiful work from Molly Broxton, Eliza Gauger, Erin Albrecht, Gant Powell and many others.

It’s been a real honour to be part of such a beautiful thing.

Hi. Sorry I’ve been a bit quiet. My Mum passed away yesterday. She had two massive heart attacks whilst visiting South Shields on the 15th and never regained consciousness. I’ve spent the last couple of weeks with my dad, looking after each other. We were by her side when she passed and she went peacefully.

We would like to thank the extraordinary staff at the ITU Ward South Tyneside District Hospital for their compassion and dedication and the people of the Little Haven Hotel for making a very difficult time as easy as possible.

The picture above is of South Shields harbour. I took it just before we went back to the hospital to say our last goodbyes.

Also thank to everyone for your messages of support and sympathy they are very much appreciated.

I’m on my way back to Bristol today (27th November). Speak soon.
