I have a .cbr of a 1974 Pink Floyd tour comic.

Prince's comic on the aborted DC Piranha imprint is something pretty special.

2000AD once did a Sisters of Mercy strip - c.1988 iirc (Floodland era Sisters).

do you mean the Nemesis story where Torquemada travelled back in time and hung out with Goths and went to a student disco?

> Yesterday, I read the reprint of the Alice Cooper comic Neil Gaiman and Michael Zulli did in the 90's

i have that (three parts?). dave mckean also did one for the rolling stones which i always associate with the alice cooper thing, somehow.

i also have, somewhere, a 7" single with a cover done by ted mckeever and that Fauves 7" featuring grant morrisson. (oh, and the warren ellis is in nick cave's new band, which i think's a bit strange)

Sienkiewicz + the Hendrix thing to thread, even though it wasn't very good.

You know it's not that Warren Ellis, right?

The Overton Lloyd-illustrated comics issued with the last few Parliament albums (Gloryhallastoopid, etc.) are awesome.

there's also the Royal Trux comics, which are hilariously inscrutable

Evan Dorkin's Hectic Planet/Pirate Corp$, despite their unfortunate late 80s/early 90s ska emphasis.

Classic music-influenced comics: Pete Bagge's Hate, Love & Rockets, etc

Matt Howarth's comics are full of the Residents and, uh, dang, what's the name of that German guy who shows up all the time... Conrad Schnitzler? Conny Planck?

Bagge's "parody" of the Dwarves was a high-point in Hate.

Hopeless Savages, by Jen van Meter (who's married to Rucka). Vol. 1 is grebt fun, vol. 2 is rub, haven't tried vol. 3.

Terry Laban's daily strip "Edge City" is about a middle class couple with kids, but the dad is an aging punk type who's hobby is playing in a band. Some of the storylines in that vein are pretty good.

Isn't League Of Extraordinary Gentlemen Volume 3 supposed to come with an album of songs performed by Alan Moore?

― The Yellow Kid (TheYellowKid), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 22:24 (seventeen years ago) link

Didn't Jamie Hewlett (he of Tank Girl and Gorillaz) do a comic to go with Pulp's 'Common People' - it used to be all over the net. And Fila Brazillia's 'Powerclowns' CD booklet is entirely made up of wordless mini-comics with tiny eye-hurting frames, but I remember them as rather nifty.

As to LOEG Vol 3, that depends if it ever comes out.

― James Morrison (James Morrison), Wednesday, 3 January 2007 22:49 (seventeen years ago) link

Negative effects of middle school comics habit:
1. Learned to draw bad anatomy with thick black outlines on everything
2. Friends loled at me every time a marvel or dc comic was spotted in my backpack or locker
3. Bought several ska cds based on Evan Dorkin letter pages

"WAHT"

I just wasted twenty minutes trying to find scans of that Prince Rogers Nelson Piranha book. If I had a scanner I'd just put my copy up. Anybody able to unearth this gem?

oddly, warren ellis' blog seems like it'd be just up nick cave's street.

Dunno but he did loads of art for the Senseless Things.

Alan Moore's Sinister Ducks was a proper 7" not a flexi.

Was that first Kula Shaker LP cover done by Dave Gibbons, or did it just look that way?
