''D.R. & Quinch'' is a comic strip created by Alan Moore and Alan Davis, which first appeared in issue 317 of the weekly comic book ''2000 AD'' in 1983. ==About the series== ''D.R. and Quinch'' started as two characters (inspired by the National Lampoon characters O.C. and Stiggs) in a one-off ''Future Shock'' in ''2000 AD'' titled ''D.R. and Quinch Have Fun On Earth''. The strip was the tale of how two alien teenage students Waldo "D.R." (for "Diminished Responsibility") Dobbs, a scheming criminal mastermind (who with his pointed ears, green flesh, and furrowed chin, resembled a Skrull from the Marvel Comics universe), and Ernest Errol Quinch, his muscular purple skinned companion in crime, have influenced Earth's history in various anarchic ways. Initially meant to only appear once, they proved so popular that a two part story ran in issues 350 and 351. This led to the strip running until issue 359 in several adventures. During these we see the pair drafted and D.R. gains a girlfriend, the insane Crazy Chrissie. The pair's last strip, ''D.R. and Quinch Go to Hollywood'' ran from issues 363 to 367 and was considered to be Moore and Davis's finest ''D.R. and Quinch'' story. However the Moore/Davis partnership was undergoing strain due to Moore refusing permission for their ''Captain Britain'' work to be reprinted, and the pair's last ''D.R. and Quinch'' work together was in the ''2000 AD Sci-Fi Special'' in 1985. In 1986 Titan Books released a collection of all ''D.R. and Quinch'' stories from ''2000 AD'' called ''D.R. and Quinch's Totally Awesome Guide To Life''. It became one of Titan's best selling books in their lines of ''2000 AD'' reprints. The book went out of print several times and it has since been collected as ''The Complete D.R. and Quinch'' (ISBN 1-84023-345-1) in 2001. The stories have remained popular with fans and are considered the best example of Alan Moore's humorous work, as well as being praised for the artwork of Alan Davis. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「D.R. & Quinch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
