Yeah, for one reason or another Rogue is one of the main characters I've become associated with over the years.. which was pretty much why I chose to use a pic of him as my icon.

 I wonder if the association came before or after you started using the icon? (Bit of a 'the chicken or the egg?' question, that one).

From my point of view the association came before I started to use the Rogue icon, that was WHY I chose to use it, previously I had been using a Judge Dredd head as my icon, but quite frankly, people (at that time) simply didn't see me as a Dredd artist, so I changed it... I think the association comes from the fact that I have drawn him quite a lot for 2000AD. Whatever the reason, people do seem to like seeing me draw him, which is fine by me.

 Well this answers THAT 'the chicken or the egg' question; it's fascinating to wonder how audiences form these impressions, though not always very helpful (The Audience being hydra-headed and often whimsical, if not outright capricious).
