2014 Annoucement

Hello!

We are changing how things work at Inspired Comics Collective. We're not planning to make any new members only anthologies. This also means we are not going to have a collective table at events anymore. This is to do with boring administration reasons and we are all still good friends. We formed as a group way back in spring 2008 and it has been a lot of fun learning how to make comics together. Thank you to everyone who has been a member or helped us along the way.

I am going to keep this blog up to date with members news. There are some exciting personal projects you might have spotted which will be continuing this year.

I'm going to start with some news from Gem Sheldrake. The Wastelands has recently been added to the Comixology app for mobile devices. Click here for more information on downloading it.

Jack Davies has also made Alex The Abomination available for pdf download. Click here for more information on downloading it. You can also interact with Alex herself through Facebook and Twitter.

What's The Time Mrs. Woolf? is a quarterly zine created by Sarah Fogg and Lily-rose Beardshaw. The new Winter issue is available online through Sarah Fogg's Etsy Shop.

If you would like to buy a copy of our last anthology Mixtape. I have 5 copies left and they are available to order online through my Etsy Shop.

I'll be back here in a couple of weeks with some more news
Thank you very much to everyone who supported us as a group or bought our anthologies

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.

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

Alex Short Story 2 by Jack Davies - Design and Development


These photos were sent to me from Jack Davies. He is working on a new short story about Alex - who also appeared in our anthology last year! It's always interesting to see the original pencil and ink work for comic pages. Jack's using a light blue pencil which can be erased digitally.

Jack is also planning to release a compilation of full colour stories about Alex - so keep an eye out on his blog. (we'll make sure to let you know here too) 

Thanks!
Sammy
