I think I first met Hunt Emerson in the late 1970s when he had spikey hair and thick eye-liner on! There’s a photo somewhere of him at Comics 101 in the 1970s…have to find it.
In the 1980s I met him again at the Knockabout Comics table at one of the UK Comic Art Conventions -cloth cap on and pint of beer in hand. He is a genuinely nice man.
Sadly,I don’t think his site has been up-dated since…2001? Which is a pity because he is one of the most under-rated artists in the UK. Mention him to most staff or comic geeks and you get a blank look -yet Europeans have heard of him!
I think I feel a feature coming on…
But in the meantime,look for Mr Emerson at the BICS in October and check out this old interview:
