Latest Guest DAVE TAYLOR Sat and Sun UNLIKE many of his British compatriots, Dave Taylor began his career in the US. Kicking off in 1991, he illustrated a six-issue run [#7-12] on Zorro for Topps, which he followed with contributions to two 1992 issues of Captain Planet and the Planeteers for Marvel. He then commenced working for Marvel UK drawing sundry issues of Warheads and Motormouth & Killpower as well as 1993’s Gene Dogs four-parter. Returning to the US and following a brief dalliance at Defiant and a couple of issues of Force Works for Marvel, in 1995 he took on Batman: Riddler – The Riddle Factory. His most high-profile project to date the DC one-shot was followed by a flurry of pin-ups and covers for various Bat-titles as well as 13 issues of Batman: Shadow of the Bat. At the same time he also worked on various side projects including drawing the two issues of Dark Horse’s creator-owned 1996 microseries Tongue*Lash but then his comics output dwindled. His next major project was seven of the 10 issues of Batman/Superman: World’s Finest. That was released by DC in 1999, the same year he produced a Tongue*Lash sequel. Only sporadic work followed until 2004 when Taylor resurfaced on Judge Dredd Megazine. He is been a regular contributor to the British monthly and its weekly companion title, 2000 AD ever since although he was also the artist on DC’s prestigious 2012 graphic novel Batman: Death by Design.

NEAL ADAMS - Attending Saturday and Sunday One of the most influential artists of his era, Neal Adams got his start drawing the Ben Casey newspaper strip, which ran from 1962 to 1966. The following year he took to contributing to such of Warren’s horror anthologies as Creepy and Eerie before moving on to DC, where his realistic and innovative style radically overhauled the look of the publisher’s covers. After working on war and humour comics, he made comicbook readers sit up and take notice illustrating Deadman in Strange Adventures with his subsequent work on The Brave and the Bold and Batman [sporadically between 1970 and 1974) and especially the groundbreaking Green Lantern/Green Arrow [1971-72] garnering him legions of fans. Adams also began working for Marvel, providing not only covers but highly regarded if truncated runs on X-Men [1969-70] and Avengers [1971-72] as well as contributions to various anthologies. Although he remained in high demand for covers and the occasional short story, by the mid-1970s his focus had shifted outside the comics industry although his tour-de-force came in 1978. Better known as Superman vs Muhammad Ali, the tabloid-sized All-New Collectors’ Edition #C56 was major commercial and critical success. In 1984 he launched Continuity Comics. A spin-off from Continuity Studios (Adams’ commercial art operation), it sporadically published such titles as Ms Mystic (which the artist had premiered at Pacific Comics in 1982), Armor, Echo of Futurepast, Zero Patrol and Bucky O’Hare for the next decade. Other than his work on the Continuity titles, Adams was virtually absent from the scene until 2010 when DC announced he would be writing and drawing the six-issue Batman: Odyssey. A seven-part sequel followed in 2011 with the five-issue The First X-Men – his first significant work for Marvel in over 20 years – coming a year later.

Chris Weston - Attending Saturday and Sunday THE FIRST nine years of Chris Weston’s comics career were dedicated to 2000 AD. Starting off with a bang – with a Judge Dredd six-pager in 1988’s Prog 596 – the British artist remained closely associated with the self-styled Galaxy’s Greatest Comic – until 1997. Although he had illustrated occasional issues of DC/Vertigo titles previously, it was when he began collaborating with acclaimed Scots writer Grant Morrison on The Invisibles in 1998 that his career really took off in the US. After eight issues of the DC/Vertigo mature readers comic he slid back to 2000 AD prior to returning to the mature readers imprint in 2000 for the first three issues of Lucifer. The following year brought the Dan Dare-influenced, Warren Ellis Ministry of Space for Image while in 2001 he drew writer Garth Ennis’s War Stories: Johann’s Tiger one-shot for Vertigo, where he remained for a 13-issue reunion with Morrison on 2002’s The Filth. It wasn’t until 2006 that he produced his next major comicbook work and made his second foray into the superhero genre (the first was two 2000 issues of DC/WildStorm’s The Authority) with a three-parter in Batman: Legend of the Dark Knight preceding his first Marvel assignment: the six-part Fantastic Four: First Family. Since then, Weston’s comics output has slowed dramatically as he has concentrated on other projects. Although he still makes the occasional contribution to 2000 AD and its companion title, Judge Dredd Megazine, his last significant work was the 12 issues of The Twelve for Marvel. Much delayed, the title – which launched in 2008 – wasn’t concluded until 2012.
