Events and other gossip!

Just a quick run-down of what events I should be attending over the next few months:

Feb 12th - London Anime Con Protip: It's also running on the 11th, but I'm only there for the Sunday.

Feb 25-6th - London Super Comic Convention I shall be sharing a table with the wonderful Tammy!

Mar 31st + Apr 1st - MCM Expo Birmingham Yes I am finally escaping the realms of London to attend more comic events. Exciting! :D

May 25-7th - MCM Expo London Which was virtually a given considering it's so damn cool. ^_^

I mentioned some of this in the last post, but there'll certainly be some new comics appearing at these events (I hope anyway!). I'm nearing the halfway point of one comic, so expect an announcement sometime within the next few weeks at the very least... ;-)

2012 is here!

It's the beginning of a new year, so perhaps a good time to talk about my plans for the next 300-or-so days. I haven't really anything to show, so this is more a check in to show I'm still active and busy doing, you know... stuff.

I'm working on NEW THINGS! The above pencil sketch is from one of two comics I'm drawing at the moment. I hope one will appear quite soon and the other is aimed squarely at London's May Expo. There's nothing else to share right now until things are nearer completion (and neither are currently anywhere near that stage!). The targets I've set myself are fairly insane and work-intensive so if I pull everything off as planned I'll be psychotically happy. Please don't hate me too much if I end up crashing an burning before then...

In terms of current/older titles I consider Japanofail to be essentially a completed project. Its spirit will certaintly live on in future comics as my sense of humour is fairly consistent in its depravity. ;D Beholder of the Eye should conclude this year too, but I want to level up working on current comics before going all out for the finale. I have an ending in mind so please bear with me while I try and make it epic and violent and awesome.

Thanks it for now, will update as things happen! ^_^

London Gaming Con - this weekend!

Just a quick note to say that I will be attending the London Gaming Con for both days this very weekend! It might not be a comic event, but there'll certainly be an otaku-vibe in the hall so it should be a good event for checking out comics, artwork and merchandise alongside all the gaming content.

This time I'll be sharing a table with the amazing Yuri Kore who will be there with her wares. Come say hi! :-)

October MCM Expo Complete!

The event ended yesterday and I'm feeling pretty drained right now - but the event went well! ^_^

It was really busy (ignore the photo for that - it was taken well before opening) and it was nice to see both new returning faces. Japanofail continued its reign as my most popular comic, but Beholder of the Eye put in a pretty respectable performance. Thanks for popping by guys and if you went away with one of my comics I hope you enjoyed it!

That's it for this year! The next event I'm attending is the London Anime Con in February and will keep an eye out for other events for the rest of 2012 as well. :-) Time to hibernate and start thinking about what comics to make next - will keep you posted!

MCM London Expo this weekend!

We're just a few days away from the event now, so thought a general run through of what to expect from my table on the day.

Firstly is that I have two new comics out on the day. More hacking and slashing with issue 4 of Beholder of the Eye and also a brand spanking new issue of Japanofail.

I still have a complete range of comics on the table, so will be offering multi-buy bundle deals for those who fancy stocking up on a few of my comics. ;-)

I will be there all 3 days of the event (remember entrance on Friday is only for those with full weekend tickets), so please feel free to come say hi. The guys at the comic village have released a map of where to find artists on the day (I've marked my location below) - hope to see you all soon!

New things!

Just a quick note to say I've got a few new badge designs in circulation that will be appearing at London Expo NEXT WEEKEND! (Not long now!)

A weird wibbly monster is accompanied badges of WIN and FAIL!

They'll be appearing along with my older designs (of which I have replenished the stock of pandas!) at 50p each or 3 for £1.

1 week to go - hope to see people there! ^_^

Japanofail 5

Here it is - the fifth issue of Japanofail is done and dusted! Yet more instances of geek-related fail with perhaps a slightly more twisted streak. That said, if you've come this far I doubt there's much that can shock you now!

The comics came in from the printer this afternoon and are good to go for Expo at the end of the month, and is now available on the shop! :-)

Please look out for it!
