How good was Ron Embleton !!
Pictured is his cover to 'The Secret of the Trolls' that appears in our latest 'Lost Treasures' collection. Give it a go, it's probably the best illustrated comic you will buy this year!

I’ve always loved comics, always loved books and now I hold in my hands one containing work by one of my favourite artists that I helped to make. Thank you again to @eatonjones.bsky.social and @roberthammond.bsky.social for letting me into their world. Roll on Eartha – no wait, that sounds rude...

Does anyone have a good quality clipping of E36 from Eartha published in the News of the World Sunday magazine 1981-82? As you can see, the one we have is ripped. Many thanks. This is for the Eartha collection featuring art by John M Burns.

This is Eartha. Her adventures appeared in the News of the World Sunday magazine 1981-82 painted by John M Burns. We're putting a book collection together and are still looking for some of the original art. Please get in touch if you have any either here or at johnmburnsart@gmail.com

Those of you who backed the Zetari Special Edition book on Kickstarter should have received an update. I had the pleasure of going through a PDF of the finished version and obviously I'm biased but @roberthammond.bsky.social has done an amazing job on restoration, lettering and book design.

John M Burns' few projects with American publishers were not happy experiences. One was Sable and Fortune for Marvel in 2006. An intended six issue arc ended up being three and a cover for issue 4.
