Cosmo Park is out tomorrow 👀 ✨🚀

I can't wait to share Kara's intergalactic cosmological adventure, illustrated so wonderfully and entertainingly by Tom Dearie.

There's cats! Villains! Exploding stars! End of the universe rollercoasters!

You've been murdered: who do you want on the case?

He'll solve the case and learn something about himself while doing it

Image shows front cover of comic book. Title is in big yellow and orange font, and reads Cosmo Park. In the foreground a young girl in an orange jacket and yellow trousers looks as if she's running, next to her ginger cat. The background shows a scene on a different planet. There is a river running down the centre, a woman flying in a space suit, a boy in a pod going through the air, a waterfall, a statue of Einstein, two dogs in space helmets, a cowboy, and a spacecraft.

12th: Mid-morning mist over the river. As it cleared it looked almost otherworldly.
Icy jetty going down into mist and water. Two posts in the foreground and fence on lefthand side.

11th: The sound of ice thrown onto a frozen lake. On return to the lake later, found others doing the same. Irresistible!
