'Hollywood on the Croal' Now on Sale

 My latest comic 'Hollywood on the Croal' is now back from the printers. 

Join us on a guided walk as we visit the newly discovered reaches of the River Croal. From the new houses springing up along it's banks, to Bolton's thriving and glamorous film and television industry and then on to the beauties of nature, we will explore new facets of this fascinating river and town.

With a new map and special guests. 

40 pages, black and white, A5 sized. £4.80 with free postage included to the UK. 

This is a stand alone comic so you don't have to have read my earlier comic 'On The Banks of the Mighty Croal'. 

New Croal Comic - The Pocket

 Here's another page of my new Croal comic, with some ones memories of living in The Pocket. The comic is going to be called 'Hollywood on the Croal' or maybe 'Hollywood By The Croal', I'm not sure yet...

New Croal Comic - Underpass

 Here's another page from my new Croal comic. It's nearly all written now, just got the bibliography and further reading sections to do, and then the covers.

New Croal Comic - Spa Road

 Here's another page from my new Croal comic. I am busy working on it at the moment. The research and writing takes a long time. 

 

New Croal Comic Page Seven - The Old Bus Station

 Here's the seven page of my new Croal comic so far. I might change a bunch of the writing, once it's all done.I'm up to page twelve today. I was slowed down by running out of printer ink but I got some more. True story.

New Croal Comic Page One

 Here's the first page in progress of my new Croal comic. I've finished all the drawing so now I've started on all the words and layout. Also I've drawn a new map. 

Return to the Mighty Croal

 I've started work on a new sort of sequel to my old comic 'On The Banks of the Mighty Croal'. I found a mile long new part of the Croal that I never walked along the first time. Exciting. I will make this new comic a stand alone story so don't worry if you don't have the first part. The new comic will also have a bunch of ideas I've had about drawing all the TV Filming that is always going on round here.

Here's some of my photo references from walking the Croal on Monday. I am still finishing my story with the potato people, it is nearly at the end now so I am working on both things at once.
