DR WHO: PETER CUSHING: THE USUAL SUSPECTS: LEE SULLIVAN.
This fantastic DR WHO artwork comes courtesy
of artist and illustrator Lee Sullivan who joined PCASUK a few weeks ago
and was commissioned last year to produce this piece of art for The
Cartoon Museum in London, to promote an exhibition of Dr Who comic strips. It's a re working of an earlier version that appeared in the Dr Who Monthly Magazine and is a pastiche of 'The Usual Suspects' movie poster. Peter Cushing may not be considered 'Dr Who Canon' but he certainly looks as if he belongs here!
UPDATE: INFO FROM LEE SULLIVAN ON ORDERING THIS PRINT FOLLOWING YOUR REQUESTS:
Thanks for asking about the Usual Suspects print. The larger prints (approx 45x21 cm) are £38 inc P&P and the smaller (32x15 cm) are £28 inc P&P. These are high-quality photo prints on satin paper, made in small batches, signed and numbered as part of an open-ended 'series 0' run, as they are not going to be generally available. If they ever are, then that'll be 'series 1' - so '0' will be as exclusive as they get, for what it's worth! Paypal is my preferred method of payment.
