If you’re a fan of the art of 2000AD artist Chris Weston, you may be interested in this Judge Dredd art he’s currently selling on eBay – but with nine days to go and the top bid already at £320, you may need deep pockets…
Created in gouache, Chris’s art is A3 size and offered on eBay here. It quickly reached its £180 starting price.
We recently exclusively revealed that Chris, whose many credits include “Judge Dredd” for 2000AD, has created the cover for Black Max Volume Two for the Treasury of British Comics line, and the art reflects a clear love of the World War One villain and his giant bats!
Chris’s many other credits include “Killing Time”, his favourite strip for 2000AD to date, co-created with John Smith, and, for US publishers, work on titles such as Swamp Thing, The Invisibles, The Filth, Ministry of Space and The Twelve.
More recently, he worked as a costume designer on Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
