Thank you to everyone who came by and said hello at Thought Bubble over the weekend. Managed to get a few sketches done for folk, but actually managed to chat a bit for once. As always, thanks to @zanphee.bsky.social for the invaluable help with manning the table and fielding questions.

Swing by table D28 in the 2000AD Hall at Thought Bubble and get your first look at the art for New Adventures for the Trigan Empire. If you have capacity for excitement, it’s time to fill it. WITH EXCITEMENT!

I’ll be exhibiting at @thoughtbubbleuk.bsky.social again this year. Swing by if you want a sketch or something signed - or just want to say hi. Might have some extra stuff to preview this year too.

Heads-up for fellow comics art fans, the reprint of the extremely rare DC style guide, full of gorgeous JLGC and Giordano art, came out without much fanfare recently and it feels like one of those books that, once it’s out of print, will be a nightmare to find.

The new issue of Battle Action comes out, somehow, on Christmas Day. I drew and coloured a 14-page Death Game story for it. Here's a wee inks/colour comparison.

The colour version of that Battle Action cover I posted the inks for earlier. I did full art duties on the Death Game story in this issue - first time in a while I've done my own colours for interior art. Think it's due out by the end of the year.

Hi all - I'll be at #ThoughtBubble again this year, doing the usual sketching and signing. If anyone wants to reserve a slot for a sketch on the day, please just let me know - or come to the table as early as you can manage.
