Wild Girl #6 Out 27th April 2005.

We got our boxes of issue 6 yesterday and it was a weird feeling. It's pretty much two years since we started work on the series and practically a year since we finished writing it, but seeing it finished at last is both wonderful and kind of upsetting.
We're both agreed that we still really like the series. The pacing was very different to other comics and that was something that people seemed to really have a problem with, but we feel that read as a whole it all makes sense.
We've learned a lot about writing and working in the comics industry through doing the series and we really hope that people have enjoyed reading it.
Big thanks to Shawn McManus, J H Williams III, Andrew Pepoy and everyone else who worked on Wild Girl.

The Spider - King of Crooks, Titan Hardback

THE SPIDER - KING OF CROOKS
Released 24th June 2005 • Hardback • £14.99 • ISBN: 1-84576-000-X


Cover by Garry Leach Posted by Hello

"Fresh from the Silver Age vault of classic British comics, and perfectly timed for his fortieth birthday, comes arch-criminal and twisted mastermind THE SPIDER! Bursting onto the pages of Lion back in the 60s, The Spider was a breath of foul air in a world of four-color good guys and square-jawed heroics. Imagine a villain equipped with an amazingly versatile exoskeleton and the brains to match… one with ambitions to become the Kingpin of Crime. Now meet the Spider!"
