ResumoArthur Ranson (b. 1939) is a British artist widely known for his work on Look-in (Danger Mouse, Sapphire & Steel) and 2000AD (Anderson: Psi-Division, Shamballa, Mazeworld, Button Man). This interview, undertaken throughout July–October 2018, explores his career as an illustrator and artist and explores a range of topics, including key points in his career; his approach to composition, colour and storytelling; comics and realism; whether comics are, as Jack Kirby once declared, journalism; artists he admires, including Mike Mignola, Neal Adams, Alex Ross, Jack Kirby and Allison Bechdel; the Bechdel test and representations of female characters in comics; reflections on Cassandra Anderson; the Judge Dredd films; John Wagner; Mazeworld; his collaborations with writer Alan Grant; and the single panel from his incredibly body of work in comics and illustration that he’s most proud of.
