The following is extracted from issue 209 of the British magazine Judge Dredd Megazine, page 98 to be exact, an article called I'm With This Idiot... in which author Gordon Rennie writes about the dubious joys of co-writing: "Attempt Number One never even really got off the drawing board. Myself and another precious young thing - this was rather a long time ago, you understand - were in with a shot of doing a comic book multiverse odyssey about the zany, crazy, mindflip, sci-fi and glam rock-referencing antics of a then highly-fashionable band whom I couldn't possibly confirm as being the KLF (I did warn you that it was all a rather long time ago). Unfortunately, neither my co-writer nor I could agree on a joint story outline, and, since we each passionately hated what the other one had come up with on their own, that was more or less the end of that, and the project vanished as fast as a million quid set on fire on a remote Scottish island." Ahem. Anybody know more about this? If anyone wants to see the magazine themselves, it's on sale in Britain until 27th September. An excellent comic strip magazine, but nothing else about The KLF in it I'm afraid.
This would be the 'Deep Shit' comic that B&J had planned. Andrew ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Simpson" <david-a-simpson@beeb.net> To: <klf@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Friday, August 01, 2003 7:46 PM Subject: [KLF] Komic Left Floundering
