A couple of pages from the November 1984 issue of the comic book GrimJack. The story is about a singer-guitar player who needs protection, after he is grazed by a would be assassin’s bullet during preparations for a comeback concert. Tim Truman, the graphic artist for the comic book, used Rory's likeness for the character. Tim was a long-time fan of Rory Gallagher and saw one of his shows at the Bottom Line in New Your in 1979. Tim would later became involved in the mixed-media project "Kickback City" in 2013, collaborating with Top UK crime novelist Ian Rankin for a 44 page comic book style story inspired by the crime theme element in many of Rory's songs.
