I just got an email from Banksy about this covers brouhaha. The man himself says:
alex- everything will be cool if the comic is good. if the comic is bad we fight friday night in the car park of wetherspoons, crouch end 8pm no weapons -b
So: as you were, everyone. Props to the Wooster Collective for making a stand for artist rights, though. And I hope the street art community will accept my apology for the mis-steps I made in handling all this. I genuinely love the wit and design sensibility of street art, and really the last thing I wanted to do was piss all of you off. If SMOKE lasts beyond the initial 3-issue season, I'd love to see if we could commission some of the incredibly talented artists whose work I've discovered via Marc and the Wooster site to officially do covers for us. But I warn you all: indie comics is a bit like street art, really. Nobody does it for money (because there isn't any).
Meanwhile, I gotta go work on Issue 3 of SMOKE and make sure it's really f*cking good. That, or start taking kung fu lessons...
