And now I can reveal that the "offer I couldn't refuse" is a project I'm developing for Virgin Comics with LOCK STOCK / SNATCH writer-director Guy Ritchie.
THE GAMEKEEPER is a Director's Cut mini-series about a killer who's more in touch with the natural world than he is with his own humanity. Guy came up with the original character and premise, and I'm developing it into a 10-issue series to be illustrated by DEVI's Mukesh Singh.
Hopefully I'll be able to reveal more details when I speak to Comic Book Resources about it soon. Busy old week...

I just confirm what I told you in the last comment: soon a comic-book super-super-superstar.
Virgin is an amazing publisher. The came out with a kind of UNIQUE production and with a lot of BIB authors. Graphic design is more similar to movie art than comics. But I cannot say there a stronger link with european way, like, for example, french comics or even Italian. While the most similar european painter is Simone Bianchi, in my opinion Virgin stuff is kind of unique. Many stories, many styles, it's something that remember USA comic-books, euro stuff and even manga, but in completely strong style.l
Very happy you'll work for them!
Good Look Andy, and if you have a minute, just come in stylecafe and leave a comment. ;-)

Hey, I didn't write so much mistakes in an english text since I was at the elementary school!
Hope that Politecnico di Torino will buy some new (working!) keyboards!
Bye again

Wow..this sounds amazing Andy...you and Guy Ritchie will make an amazing team!
Cool stuff. I really enjoyed your work on Silent Dragon and Losers. The trade of SD was sort of skimpy on the extras...bummer
If you ever need an artist for anything drop me a line.
best,
