Brain Damage, Part 5 - Who is Lucian?

And now, the second-to-last part of the first part of the eight-part "series" about Galaxy Publications... Keeping up? This one's all about someone called Lucian. No idea on the "true" identity, or if anything else exists by him (her?). For Brain Damage though, Lucian did a LOT. Often with the equally enigmatic "Botsf'd", whoever THAT is. At the same time as being frustratingly unknown (to me anyway), Lucian's also bloody brilliant, the closest comparisons I can think of would be Gahan Wilson and Edika. I couldn't single out any particular contribution - so here's the whole lot of them, beginning with the Lucian-drawn cover for the seventh issue:

  1. Desperate to leave a witty, insightful and relevant comment, but I just can't think of one. Maybe I've got Brain Damage? (Best I can do at short notice.)
