I backed on KS at £21.00 paperback level and then ordered the 'floppy' at £7.99 on BackerKit.
I got excited about the Super Deluxe edition so added that with an extra paperback edition to gift to a friend.
In total £145.98
All I have received is the 'floppy' version.

Don't overthink it: what comic book panels/pages live in your head rent-free? Drop four and tag #comicsdna

These are amazing but I admit for a moment there I thought this was Kevin and Michael Scott from The Office... 😅

Anyone having a bad day in this heat, I feel for you.

But these two guys fixing what appears to be (and smells like) a sewage pump at King's Cross railway station deserve some sympathy!

Beyond the Black Void Volume 1 is now available for pre-order at jackrabbitcomics.com!

In the aftermath of rejection from 2000 AD's Thought Bubble competitions, emerging creatives joined forces to showcase their skills and this anthology is the result!

Please consider pre-ordering!

FINALLY got my mits on a copy of Secrets of The Majestic (instigated by @chrismole.bsky.social who must be commended for the superb packaging -- complete with a sample of bog roll) 😂
I'm looking forward to reading it.

Picked up a few gems from @okcomics.bsky.social yesterday.

Among them were Old Dog w/ signed bookplate by Declan Shalvey and Altitude from @selfmadehero.bsky.social, which is a bulk of book for an incredibly reasonable £16.99!

As always, the OK folks were welcoming, helpful, friendly and chill.

Got this incredible original art by the brilliant Laurz Helsby framed!
Depicts Norah Price (Kristen Stewart) from the film Underwater.
It is very cool and I love it!
It goes alongside the Stormtrooper (from 2023) very nicely.
Thank you @illaurastrates.bsky.social, I'm honoured to have them.

Killtopia! A rich, vibrant world built by Dave Cook, brought to life by Craig Paton & Clark Bint.
Strong video game and Japan-influence vibes--no surprises there ;) Incredible layouts, dynamic story, breathtaking art. Plus very cool (too cool for me) references to pop culture lore. What an epic!

CYN by Ibrahim Moustafa ibrahimmoustafa.bsky.social.
Loved it.
Original believable characters, perfectly paced, excellent action sequences, beautiful art.
You can sense the influences but it copies nothing. Quality.
(No real comparison but this book is everything Rebel Moon could've/should've been.)
