Category Archives: EDITORIALThis is going to be lengthy. It cannot be done any other way but it is important to make certain points. I doubt I’ll make friends -what’s new there! The first major point is this: the UK has no actual “comics industry” and this has been true for a number of years. The “Big [...]
It was nice to meet John-Paul Bove and Jess Jessica Bradley this weekend. I swear to god JP gets sexier by the year –and possibly the most eloquent person on the Nostalgia In Comics panel. Best of luck to the couple for next weekend Nice to also meet John Short, staying positive and upbeat. Also [...]
After volume 2, no.10 of Black Tower Adventure is completed there will be no more for a looong time. I’ll be concentrating on Green Skies (allready in progress). That should be a graphic novel of around 300pp. I’ve just talked to Mr Paul Ashley Brown (Browner Knowle) who noted that the weekend small press event [...]
I refound this today. It’s from a colour illo (now lost) that I did in…1995? It was to be used in an interview by Lee Davis for Imagineers magazine that turned into a disaster….Lee and his comic Mondo vanished shortly after publication (and, no, I had NOTHING to do with his disappearance). I had just [...]
You know, after I posted my piece A Few Thoughts–I’m Sure Someone Might Read Them, I thought: “let’s try a little experiment!” I contacted shops, creators, publishers and event organisers who I had furiously promoted in the past. I said that I ‘really’ needed news and up-dates so I’d appreciate it if they could get [...]

with no press releases what-so-ever coming from the Expo people I’ve had a rough time finding anything to post about (though I have tried). My email of 12th April telling them they NEED to get PR out there hasn’t been responded to…had a VERY brief response from them in February but nothing since. I had [...]
What really pisses me off about comics in the UK? People contact me because they have written a “wiki” about a certain UK comic or character and then realise they’ve got it wrong or – really? SERIOUSLY???- they’ve lost or can’t remember where they heard something which they have included as fact…and now they are [...]
The more observant of you will note that the Bristol Comic Expo link on the blog roll is gone. I have pushed and promoted the event like mad since 2004 and many visited CBO to find out what was going on at the Expo, guests, panels and so on. But I still don’t get a [...]
