Proscenium

The sun is shining and the birds are singing. The doors to the dungeon boom to a close behind me; and in my hands are the fruits of the last...pffft....eight months...?

Introducing: Proscenium. It's a comic book. Sort of.

For those of you who perhaps aren't aware (and I'm sure that's most of you) my last few original comic books have been ghost stories. While Proscenium continues this trend with supernatural strands and an atmosphere of ghostliness, (yes I believe there is a difference) it cannot be described strictly as a ghost story. But neither is it a "horror" comic. Confused? Fair enough...

Proscenium is an anthology of daydreams and intrusions. At best it fits within the genre of the Strange Story: where perhaps there are usually supernatural, or psychological explanations to the goings on. Often, in fact, it is a little of both.

Here's a preview of select pages from the book:

There are five stories, or episodes, to the book: a poem, an illustrated story, and three comics.

Proscenium is 68 pages; colour and black and white throughout - and will be available at my table at London Super Comic Con on August 25th - 27th. Shortly afterwards it will be available elsewhere. Hopefully.

Watch this space for more updates closer to the event.

More Dirty Rotten Fun

Wow. It's been four months already. If you remember, last April saw the release of Dirty Rotten Comics #7, part of long-running UK anthology of strange, weird and wonderfully peculiar short comics.

You can see where I may fit in.

Well, they're back again. Dirty Rotten Comics #8 will be released this Friday (19th) and will feature, as before, a sterling array of Indie comics talent. I am happy to say that I have a brand ever-so-spanking-new comic to add in to this mix - in the form of the 4-page Insert 20 Pence.

You can Pre/Order the latest 68-page tome from Throwaway Press themselves here, and for more updates you can keep an eye on their website.

Dirty Rotten Fun

Howdy everyone. It's been a while, hasn't it? I know, I escaped...

April 1st will see the release of Dirty Rotten Comics Issue 7 - a UK anthology of short comics from an enormous list of very talented creators. This issue I had the privilege of including my own short comic The Laundry Goblin within its voluptuous 68 pages.

You can check out DRC's website here, pre-order/purchase the issue through them here; and read previews of the comic from Broken Frontier and Down the Tubes.
