There's too much going on in our household during the school holidays (with wonderful grandchildren visiting) to try to work out how to remove the middle border in this illustration. But there was enough time yesterday morning (while everyone else slept) to pick up a copy of Frew's first comic release of the year. I wasn't fussed about the internal pages (although they looked pretty, all in colour).... it was the wraparound cover that caught my eye. The editorial credits as by being drawn by an Australian artist that I don't know and am not familiar with: Daniel Picciotto. I'm going to have to question my comic mate Jeremy Macpherson to tell me what he knows about Daniel! It's such a cracking cover, I just had to buy a copy to share the illustration with you here.
