As a boy McCarthy soon began drawing his own home-made comics.{{citation needed|date=December 2014}} After leaving [[Chelsea Art College]] in London, where he studied film and Fine Art Painting, McCarthy decided to become a full-time artist.

In 1983 McCarthy collaborated with Milligan and [[Brett Ewins]] on ''Strange Days'', an [[comics anthology|anthology]] title published by [[Eclipse Comics]]. He also drew a two-issue series featuring his alternative "media-brat [[superhero]]" Paradax from the anthology. [[File:Rogan Gosh.jpg|thumb|left|Cover of the ''[[Rogan Gosh (comics)|Rogan Gosh]]'' collected edition.]] Over the next few years he worked for the ''2000 AD'' spin off titles ''[[Crisis (Fleetway)|Crisis]]'' and ''[[Revolver (Fleetway comics)|Revolver]]''. For ''Revolver'', McCarthy drew ''[[Rogan Gosh (comics)|Rogan Gosh]]'' (later compiled into a single edition by the [[Vertigo (DC Comics)|Vertigo]] imprint of [[DC Comics]]). For ''Crisis'', he drew ''[[Skin (graphic novel)|Skin]]''. Both books were created with and written by Peter Milligan. ''Skin'' proved to be highly controversial, with ''Crisis'' refusing to release the story and their printers refusing to print it due to claims of it being "morbidly obscene".{{Citation needed|date=March 2012}} The story was eventually being released by [[Kevin Eastman]]'s [[Tundra Publishing]] in 1992.

As a boy McCarthy soon began drawing his own home-made comics.{{citation needed|date=December 2014}} After leaving [[Chelsea Art College]] in London, where he studied film and Fine Art Painting, McCarthy decided to become a full-time artist. He created the [[independent comic book]] ''Sometime Stories'' with art college pal [[Brett Ewins]].<ref>{{cite web |url= http://brendanmccarthy.byethost8.com/comicwork/sometimes-stories.htm|title= Sometime Stories|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20131105124011/http://brendanmccarthy.byethost8.com/comicwork/sometimes-stories.htm|archive-date=5 November 2013 |url-status= live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url= http://strangenessofbrendanmccarthy.blogspot.com/2011/04/sometime-stories-number-2.html|title= Sometime Stories number 2|publisher= The Strangeness of Brendan McCarthy}}</ref> His first paid commercial work was a one-page strip ''Electrick Hoax'' in the British weekly music paper ''[[Sounds (magazine)|Sounds]]'' with another art-school escapee, writer [[Peter Milligan]], in 1978. McCarthy held a solo exhibition of paintings, drawings and collages at the Car Breaker Gallery<ref>[http://www.nottingdale.co.uk/latest/history-corner-carbreaker-gallery Notting Dale. Carbreaker Gallery]</ref> in London, a squat in [[Ladbroke Grove]]'s Republic of [[Frestonia]].<ref>[http://www.frestonia.org/carbreakers-gallery-poster/ The Republic of Frestonia. Car Breakers Gallery]</ref> ===Comics=== McCarthy started working for ''[[2000 AD (comics)|2000 AD]]'', including runs on ''[[Judge Dredd]]'', as wekk as creating ''Sooner or Later'' and [[post-apocalyptic]] [[surfing]] story ''Freakwave'' with [[Peter Milligan]]. In 1983 McCarthy collaborated with Milligan and [[Brett Ewins]] on ''Strange Days'', an [[comics anthology|anthology]] title published by [[Eclipse Comics]]. He also drew a two-issue series featuring his alternative "media-brat [[superhero]]" Paradax from the anthology. [[File:Rogan Gosh.jpg|thumb|left|Cover of the ''[[Rogan Gosh (comics)|Rogan Gosh]]'' collected edition.]] Over the next few years he worked for the ''2000 AD'' spin off titles ''[[Crisis (Fleetway)|Crisis]]'' and ''[[Revolver (Fleetway comics)|Revolver]]''. For ''Revolver'', McCarthy drew ''[[Rogan Gosh (comics)|Rogan Gosh]]'' (later compiled into a single edition by the [[Vertigo (DC Comics)|Vertigo]] imprint of [[DC Comics]]). For ''Crisis'', he drew ''[[Skin (graphic novel)|Skin]]''. Both books were created with and written by Peter Milligan. ''Skin'' proved to be highly controversial, with ''Crisis'' refusing to release the story and their printers refusing to print it due to claims of it being "morbidly obscene".{{Citation needed|date=March 2012}} The story was eventually being released by [[Kevin Eastman]]'s [[Tundra Publishing]] in 1992.
