Things said by or about Bill Savage

"He never quite received the critical acclaim given to other 2000 AD series. Many believe that this was because he refused point blank to wear a tie at the award ceremonies and because, being an honest working class fella, he couldn't bring himself to sleep with anyone on the jury before he'd drunk at least 18 pints and eaten an extra-hot Vindaloo curry, by which time he was usually too busy throwing up over Volgan soldiers to care anyway." The Best of 2000 AD Special Edition (1993).
