London-based journalist Paul Slade writes in: "I've just posted an exclusive Hans Rickheit six-page comics story on my website . The story's scripted by me from a David Attenborough radio programme about bizarre and violent insect breeding strategies, and I commissioned Hans to draw it for me earlier this year. This is the first time it's appeared anywhere." That's an excellent marriage of artist and subject matter.
