This isn't a come-on. I'm in a very serious relationship with a landscape architect.

Sienkiewicz.

He did the first story in Escapist #2. Damn I hate his artwork.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Heathen!

Of course, I haven't seen the story yet.

When I forced myself to read it, I liked the story, but that artwork makes my rat puppet cry.

Damn I hate his artwork.

So, not much use for Ralph Steadman, Gerald Scarfe, etc.?

I do hate Ralph Steadman. He freaks me right out. But that could just be all the Wall associations.

That would be the other Englishman I named. Ralph is Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas (and lots of other Hunter S. Thompson). Gerald Scarfe is the Wall guy.

Ronald Searle gets metioned with them as well. Also English. I think Bill S. is American though.

Ralph Steadman, Gerald Scarfe

Don't know them by name, so I have no idea.

Are they similar, Frank? I don't think I've ever seen any of Ralph's stuff, but I have him irretrievably tied to Pink Floyd.

VERY similar. And an admitted influence on Sienkewicz's more out there stylings. But the Floyd guy is Gerald Scarfe.

move out and draw fire

Superboy is (deep breath, this is a long one) the teenaged clone of Superman, artificially aged in a tube, who actually only has 50% of Superman's DNA because of some silly handwaved comic book science; the other half of his DNA comes from Lex Luthor.

So Lex and Clark have had a love child. Perfect.

Escapist: bleah.
