It’s never easy to do a book two on Kickstarter. You tend to automatically exclude everyone who’ve not read book one. Andres Salazar and Decade Brothers have gotten around that problem by providing PDF copies of the first graphic novel at the lowest pledge level. [Back this Campaign] There are previews for both graphic novels available […]

One of the common tactical challenges when dealing with zombies is how to deal with groups of the persistent flesh hungry threat. This competition is all about groups of zombies.

A review of MULP: Sceptre of the Sun
MULP: Sceptre of the Sun is an all-ages anthropomorphic comic from Matt Gibbs and Sara Dunkerton. I thought I knew what I was getting into after reading just the first few panels.

Dragonriders of Pern could head to the big screen
Fancy another Harry Potter style blockbuster series? The Chronicles of Narnia didn’t quite do it. Even The Hobbit series is getting mixed reviews. Warner Bros certainly fancy another bash at the market. They’ve optioned Anne McCaffrey’s Dragonriders of Pern series. This means the 22 books (that’s a lot) could become a movie. Or two. The […]

Brotherson provides story and script, Daniels the art and character ideas while Mike Stock provides lettering and logo. No prizes for guessing that Vampire Boogie is about vampires. It’s a vampire story with a twist, though, […]
Brutal: A review of God is Dead
I knew nothing about Hickman, Costa and Amorim’s God is Dead when I started to read. The opening pages show us the world tormented by natural disasters and the shocking death toll. I wondered if these horrors were the consequence for the death of God. That theory didn’t last very long. I watched as a […]
