The Spider - King Of Crooks Out Now!

A couple of copies of The Spider - King Of Crooks arrived today.
Lovely big hardbacks they are too (we were expecting paperbacks for some reason).
Looking forward to having a good old read later.

Just noticed the big fat full page Albion ad in the back too. Nice! :)

Brighton Expo Essentials

Yes, the Brighton Comic Expo looms large this weekend but since we're not going to be attending we thought we'd give you a few recommendations as to what to buy and whom to see.
  • The 20,000 Leagues lads will be there, all the way from Ireland, flogging the latest Sancho installment "Vampires of Dublin" (three pounds)
    (Sharing the table with Alan and Ian will be Bridgeen Gillespie of Mr.Maximo fame, who will be launching a brand new project. Lots of other Irish goodies worth a glance there as well)

  • The End Is Nigh #2 - War, featuring contributions from too many cool people to mention will be on sale for three pounds and ninety nine pence

  • The Death Camp Jones folks will be there flogging Pony School, Action Stations and other filth for around two pounds a go

  • Future Quake #5 will be on sale for three pound fifty along with its new all Manga spin off publication Manga Quake for two pound fifty

  • Engine Comics will be there flogging Red Eye #5 (three pounds) and tonnes of other great stuff

Lots and lots of cool guests and lots and lots of lovely comics. Should be a good weekend.

Enjoy yourselves!

Moore & Reppion Th3rd World Studios Project


Click on the screen shot (above) to visit the Th3rd World Studios Forum Posted by Picasa

Yes, there's been a bit of hush-hushed mention of this project in the past but we can now reveal the facts.

Leah and I have signed up to do an 11 page story for the forthcoming Th3rd World Studios: Space Doubles series.

Our artist on the project is going to be the very talented Mr. Adam Geen and we'll be sharing the issue (out around June 2006 if all goes well) with Trigger writer Jason Hall.

We're very excited. :)

More news to follow as and when.

Press Release: THE END IS NIGH - get it ... before it's too late!

Announcing the second fantastic issue of THE END IS NIGH, the official magazine of the apocalypse!

Launching at the Comics Expo in Brighton on November 19 and 20, this issue it's war as we examine the whys and wherefores of how mankind's favourite pasttime could spell its demise!

The issue features an EXCLUSIVE interview with comic writing god ALAN MOORE! Discussing the apocalyptic themes through most of his work, the writer turns dark prophet as he reveals why DR and Quinch's nuclear fetish was a bad idea, why George Bush is a bad idea, and even makes his own end-of-the-world prediction!

Don't miss the fantastic full-colour cover by 2000AD favourite BOO COOK and artwork by 2000AD legend FRAZER IRVING! And there's also an interview with JOHN WAGNER and ALAN GRANT about The Last American, and artist MELINDA GEBBIE talks about her work on the film of When the Wind Blows.

Plus there are the usual comic strips, news articles, in-depth features and funnies.

At a special convention price of £3.99 (normal price £4.99), you can't afford to miss it! The website at www.endisnigh.co.uk will soon be updated with sneak previews of this issue's fantastic content! Check out our ads in the forthcoming issue of Comics International!

(Oh, and me and Leah are in it aswell!)
