TCAF Toronto 2010

Bloody hell I've been accepted for the Toronto Comics Festival! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! I am very happy.

Gin Palace Anthology

Here's Dave Hughes excellent back cover for the 'Gin Palace Anthology'. Still plenty of room for anyone else who wants to be in this anthology, deadline is next February but I'd like to get a good number of pages together before that so I can work out how long it's going to be. Get in touch if you'd like to do something...

Random Nonsense


Hmmm this is the only thing I've drawn this week. I don't know why. I'll try and get going again soon. I was busy all of last week with my anthology cover but have run out of ideas for a bit.

Sfar, Trondheim, Blain - Dungeon - The Early Years Volume 2 Innocence Lost

This is the darkest and most cynical of all the Dungeon Series. Hyacinthe, who will become the dungeon keeper in the later series goes from being a courageous hero and defender of the weak and powerless to being a bloated murdererous assassin. We get to see all the things that made him into the cynical dungeon keeper of the later books. The art by Blain (see above) is very dark with awesome use of different colours on each page to set the mood. It's very enjoyable especially if you have read the later books and want to know why things are like they are. The books really build up together into an amazingly complex world.

Thought Bubble Haul

I didn't buy many comics at Thought Bubble but I really enjoyed these two-



Joe List's 'Freak Leap' which is very funny, and you can tell he has spent ages working on it to get the images just right, and Philippa Rice's 'Futuristic Dwellings' which consists of many super detailed pages of futuristic homes. It's very cool.
