Tomorrow The World!


The Jolly Cripple Pub, from Red Seas, drawn by Steve Yeowell
I wonder if Ian's starting to secretly build an "Edginton-verse" at 2000AD - in part two of Stickleback the characters visit a pub called The Jolly Cripple (known as the regular haunt of the crew from Red Seas).

I emailed Steve Yeowell who very kindly sent me ref for the pub (I don't think it's meant to be exactly the same one, but I like the idea of there being a chain of them). Due to the number of panels on the pages, I couldn't fit any big establishing shots in, but I took Steve's exterior layout and added additional buildings (given Stickleback must be about a century on from Red Seas, I assumed you'd get a bit of urban development).

That's a great idea. Ian is doing a workshop for my son's school this week so I'll get him to ask!
