Dec's first issue of Northlanders hits shelves on wednesday, go buy several copies. We've seen the art and it's gorgeous, right up Dec's alley. Besides, Northlanders is a fantastic book anyway, so you've been missing out if you haven't given it a go yet.
I remember reviewing Dec's portfolio when we were looking for somebody to take over on Freakshow after myself and Thompson had left. Do I wish now that I'd never recommended him for the book? Of course I do. In five or so years he's gone from delivering coal to drawing books for both Marvel and DC simultaneously.
It's hard to begrudge the fella all his success, given that he works really hard and he's an all-round good egg. But I manage it.

YOWZA! That is SOME piece man. Is that me in the Viking gear? Bloody hell.
Sir; I'm mightily humbled by the effort, sincerity and homoeroticism of this post. Many thanks!
That's fantastic, you've really captured Dec's sinister nature. Is that coloured directly over the pencils?
Ha, yeah Dec, supposed to be you under there, hard to make the likeness work with the helmet etc.
And yep Thomps, coloured this straight from pencils, wanted to try it out on something to see if i'd use the technique a bit on HPD. I quite like it, but reckon I'm better off with the inks.
Yeah it's a nice effect for an illustration but the pencils have to be very, very clean to work as sequentials.
Fantastic ! Pure class. Jayz.
Me likey!
Haha ohhh yeah it is Dec.

Young love, eh?
Ah yeah, back in his free loving days. Deadly pic by the way.
