Brendan McCarthy has taken to Facebook to plug the upcoming Dark Horse collection The Best of Milligan and McCarthy.  He's been using it to spread rather fetching memetic images from the classic strips in the book: so far, "Freakwave," "Paradax" and "Skin" have gone up, presumably with similar designs for "Sooner or Later" and "Rogan Gosh" to follow.

I have to admit, I have a horse running in this race, because Brendan and Pete asked me to write an essay for the book, and it proved damned hard getting the reasons of why and how much I love this material down to less than a thousand words. Anyway, I feel jealous of anyone getting to experience this (inspirational, influential) material for the first time. It's been downright criminal that its been out of print for so long.  You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll fall in love, you'll walk funny for a week.

McCarthy also posted this rather cool image, taken by his brother Jim (a fellow comic artist), of Pete and him on the promotional trail for Vortex's Paradax #1 in 1987. Great shades, but it looks like Pete Milligan really disapproves of smoking.
