RIP Steve Dillon

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

One of my favourite early Dredd artists, I probably ranked him 2nd only to McMahon. His work on Alone In A Crowd, Block Mania and City of the Damned was excellent. Very sad, RIP. :(
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Getting tired of typing RIP this year... His Dredd and Rogue Trooper stuff was top. I've still got Preacher to look forward to.

I loved his work with Garth Ennis on possibly my favourite run of Hell blazer.

Sorry to here this.

His first work on 2000AD was published before he was even 19. Such a great talent.
