Excerpt from Tales From Beyond Science, illustrated by Rian Hughes for 2000AD
Concluding our month of shows about ‘British Mavericks’, artists whose work is surprisingly avant-garde for the mainstream, Alex Fitch talks to comic book artist and graphic designer Rian Hughes about his work, from his early days in the small press and discovering European comics through Escape magazine to working on 2000AD and its spin off title, Revolver. Alex and Rian also talk about the latter’s reasons for becoming a full time graphic designer in the mid 90s and leaving comics for over a decade, before becoming interested in the medium once again over the last couple of years.
Guest Speaker: Mel Brimfield, artist and curator of The Comic Book Project talking about her work and leading a discussion on ‘ Need More Love’ by Aline Kominsky Crumb

I think by now I should have podcasted this show –
This edition of Outsider In features Resonance104.4fm vetenarian Dan Wilson.
Dan reluctantly appeared live as my guest on in the Resonance studio. Nonetheless we both saw it through.
I hope you can as well.
Dan Wilson created and hosted the wonderful Hellbore Shew and Epistaxis Time. He also gave me a paperback book on beer recipes he found on his way over to meet me.
It was a rallying cry, and in its wake pigs were strangled, barns were burned, and doh-si-dohs were essayed. How sweet the memory of those dances of my grandparents’ youth. I was not alive then of course, so I have no direct memory, but I recall, as an infant, sitting in a basket slung over one of grandpa’s bison, and he goading the beast along the lane, and telling me tales of his childhood in the Wenkenblatt, the strangled pigs and the burning barns and the doh-si-dohs.
This episode was recorded on the 23rd April 2009. A complete transcript of this episode can be found on Frank Key’s Hooting Yard website.

Get slimmer, learn about better bowling, phonetic punctuation, relaxation techniques, how to disco-dance like the professionals – these are just a few topics featured on the many self-help and instructional records released over the years.

Excerpt from Behold, King Listpin III by Dev Hynes and Luke Pearson plus Ctrl Alt Shift Unmasks Corruption cover detail by Laura Oldfield Ford
Continuing ‘British Mavericks’ month on the show, Alex Fitch looks at the new charity anthology: “Ctrl Alt Shift unmasks corruption”, a collection of short comic strips that mixes seasoned professionals with the work of small press artists and creators from other media who are less well known for working in comics. From the latter group, Alex is talking to Dev Hynes*, better known as the musician Lightspeed Champion and who has a sincere interest in comics that led to the creation of two strips in the anthology. Alex also talks to the cover illustrator Laura Oldfield Ford, whose work can normally be found in fine art galleries in the fields of collage and traditional illustration, but also creates sequential art ‘zines under the name of Savage Messiah…
*(If you want to quibble, Dev was born in Texas but raised in Essex since the age of 2, so he’s an honorary British Maverick)
