Its a world where if you stand up for what is right you'll be lucky if its just a beating you get. A world where people are starving (if poor) and the rich live in luxury. A world where you have to have birthing Rights. Where sacrificing someone to the Devil is acceptable -as long as they pay the wages. A world where if you DO NOT take that bribe you WILL be made an example of.
This was the dystopian world set up by Ben Dilworth in Small Press publications in the 1980 and some strips in Black Tower books and led on to The Dark Night Detectives: Everything Is Under Control.
Now Detective Inspector Black and Special Constable (Community Policing) Jones are back and it is still dar, bleak and depressingly familiar in a way.
The ending will make you ask more than a few questions.
Looks great.Sorry about the extra work. Thanks for publishing it. 'The Ministry of Safety' in that world? With that story line? BBBRRR! TTFN
ReplyDeleteYOU do not have to apologise. No one forced me into publishing and editing. Getting past thge challenges keeps the mind keen! The last few pages I read about 4 times -I'm not there to read so that's your fault! :-) :-) psst. We need to move away from the watercolour wash covers before they all merge together. Says the man who needs to get off his ass and finish the Green Skies covers!
ReplyDeleteok. Message received - already done a couple of covers, though.... after that though, I'll change my approach. TFN
ReplyDeleteDON'T take it as any criticism but the punter need their attention caught and quite honestly they get "cover blindness" where a similar technique used just blurs past them. Its why I'm having to re-look at a few covers of my own. Sods should just buy!! :-)
