Petition for all the ‘best books of the year’ lists to actually include some comics, and for the ‘best children’s books of the year’ to also INCLUDE SOME COMICS.
(Leave mine out the running if you like, I’m not saying this for me, I’m saying it because the UK needs to stop being sniffy about comics)

Just a few days left on the BOXES Vol. 3 Kickstarter. It looks like this one will go down to the wire. Very exciting, but not great for my nerves!

Can you help us bring this comics showcase anthology to life? Take a look here and see:

Thanks 📦📦📦

cyber mondays
8 panel comic P1: A puddle of what may be blood on what looks to be a pavement, rendered grey-purple by the night P2: a foot elwewring abrown shoe enters the frame and steps hard in the liquid, disturbing it-- P3: --before just as rapidly lifting output the puddle, exiting the frame, leaving ripples in its wake P4: A wide Dutch angle shot, revealing a backlit silhouetted figure running from headlights. A dark and ominous city rises skyward in the distance P5: we reveal the owner of the foot. It is a panicked and disheveled looking Jon Arbuckle. He is running forward, but looking back over his shoulder at some unseen pursuer, before-- P6: --BAM! He suddenly slams into a silhouetted figure P7: POV is now over Jon's right shoulder. Sweat beads his face as he backs away from a playoon of Judge Dredd like police. The one in front clasps an electric baton on both gloved hands. A butnjng sting of blue crackles at its pronged tip. The lead cop --all jaw and gristle-- scowls beneath a helmet shaped like a cartoon orange cat P8: skyscrapers loom and dominate the red sky. Two of them have large signs with the apathetic face of The Cat. They both have captions which read "LOVE LASAGNE" and "HATE MONDAYS"
