London MCM Expo - NEW STUFF!!

 

 

 

 

We have some new stuff to take to London MCM Expo! Jack Davies and Jacob Boniface have printed a full colour perfect bound Alex book! The book contains 3 adventure stories. It's 70 pages!

 

 

 

 

How cute are these Zelda note book/sketch book covers?! Sarah Fogg will be taking limited print runs of these designs!

 

I've created a tiny lumpy space princess fanzine. I'll be selling them for 50p at the weekend. You can read the whole thing for free here or order online from Etsy.

 

 

And of course we will have plenty of copies of the anthology we launched this month!

 

If you would like a set of free mini comics the pass word is 'Do you have a business card?'

 

Thanks! Hope to see you there!

Post Bristol Comics Expo

 

 

 



Hello! Massive thank you to all those who visited the table for chatting and purchases over the weekend! We had a great time at Bristol Comics Expo!

Photo reading: Tuk Tuk by Will Kirkby - it's ace!

Treebeard has struggled getting work in Hollywood despite his role in LOTR. We got him a temp job being sandwich board guy. (really what happened is that I forgot to pack a extra stand, but did remember to bring a Treebeard action figure to hang out with)

We have 1 copy left of Alien Rendez-vous and Beyond Fantasy. They're both listed on my Etsy.

Thanks again! See you at London MCM Expo and Manchester MCM Expo!!

Pre Bristol Comics Expo Post

 

 

Hello! This saturday and sunday (11th-12th) we will be at Bristol Comics Expo! We're launching our new anthology Mixtape. (See the last couple of blog  posts for previews) We still have copies of Eat Me!, last years food themed anthology. If you can't attend the event these books are listed on my Etsy shop.

 

We will have all the issues of What's The Time Mrs. Woolf? which are still in stock. They are magazines style zines so it's not important to start from the begining or read in order. The issues are also listed on Sarah's Etsy

Some of the solo comics Sarah and I will be bringing along. We'll be taking some mini comics, postcards, badges and things too.

 

Sale!! Sale!! Beyond Fantsy and Alien Rendez-vous are the last stock of some of our older comics and they will be just 50p!

 

 

FREE MINI COMICS! We'll have around 60 sets of free mini comics to give out at the event. If we forget to hand you one if you're browsing the secret code is 'Do you have a business card?' - and free things will be in placed your hands!

I think thats everything. We have a bigger table space so basically everything we have in stock will be there!

Thanks see you there!

* sorry I forgot to list this. Sarah and I made a music zine last year. We've got some copies left. there wont be any reprints because we'd love to make another one.

Music Wars

Hello! This is our final preview page from the anthology written and illustrated by Sammy Borras. Music Wars is a new short story comic following Ted and Tim. Their latest challange is a local battle of the bands competition.

Don't forget we'll be at Bristol Comics Expo tomorrow! I've packed the comics ready to go! This afternoon I'll try and get a blog post listing what we'll be taking and information about free mini comics!

Thanks

A Ghost Story

A Ghost Story is the 2nd comic in Mixtape created by Sarah Fogg. I really love the eiry mood of this comic created by the overall story telling choices and media experiments. Sarah has a great diverse set of skills.

We're excited because we're attending Bristol Comic Expo this weekend. If you can't visit then don't forget the anthology is now avaliable online through Etsy and we will be taking copies to London MCM Expo and Manchester MCM Expo 

Thanks

Alex On Patrol

Jack Davies and Jacob Boniface have created a couple of short stories about Alex's adventures. Our Mixtape anthology features Alex On Patrol in greyscale but I know Jack has been colouring the pages for a full colour compilation. It's looking great! I will be back to blog the release when it's announced.

Thanks

The Melody Of Life

The next comic preview is The Melody of Life written by Laura McNulty and illustrated by Sammy Borras. I don't normally have backgrounds or objects as the main priority of my comics. Laura always gives me a good challange when I get her anthology scripts.

Don't forget that the anthology is now avaliable online through Etsy and we will be attending Bristol Comic Expo, London MCM Expo and Manchester MCM Expo 

Thanks

Tea

Shaz submitted a little comic about Tea for our Mixtape anthology. It's a comic showing a slightly darker slice of life moment. I don't want to give away too much! Shaz is currently working hard on her graphic design portfolio which you can find here.

I'm excited because the printed comics are due to arrive today. :D

Thanks
