Crusader Sketches

We were extremely honoured that David Frankum brilliantly sketched MFB superhero The Crusader and contributed the original drawing to the Demoncon raffle:

David also came up with this superbly moody Crusader illustration which now resides in The Denton Archives:

Here's a snap of David sketching at Demoncon, in front of the rather lovely new MFB banner:

The Crusader is scheduled to return in Massacre For Boys Picture Library. David's latest strip, Flesh, written by Andrew Cheverton, will be appearing in the new issue of Zarjaz.

Demoncon 4

As the poster suggests, David Frankum and I will be appearing at Demoncon 4 in Maidstone this Sunday. We'll be punting our various wares, whilst generally chatting about comics and stuff. This follows hot on the heels of the excellent Demoncon 3, and is therefore guranteed to be awesome.

If you're in the area, why not drop by?

Demoncon 3

I spent a very pleasant day in Maidstone last Sunday for Demoncon 3. It was a really nice convention, not too big, but very well attended with plenty to see and do. I got to meet David Frankum in the flesh for the first time, and we had a great time hawking our various wares, including Walking Wounded, Futurequake, Doctor WTF?! and Zarjaz.

I wasn't just there to sell though - I bought Futurequake 16 from David, having missed it the first time around. It includes a great story by him and Russell Norris called Generations, several other really fine self-contained strips and a back cover 1-pager coloured by none other than "Steven Denton". I also purchased the very last copy ever (for now) of the West graphic novel Justice by Andrew Cheverton and Tim Keable then swapped myself a copy of By The Book 1 by Peter Anckorn. Should keep me busy this weekend!

Demonic Manifestation

I'm on the guest list of Demoncon 3 where I'll be appearing with David Frankum to talk about our various projects including the Massacre For Boys Action Special and Zenith/Invasion.

Who knows, there might even be some exciting news regarding our third and thus far top secret collaboration!
