Hi All

Well a week after Bristol and finally getting round to writing my blog, its been a hectic week.

Overall I had a fun time, met some really cool people and sat between Excelsior Comics, a Bristol comic shop and H.R.Lord of "Here Comes Everyone" - you really need to check out her book its very cool - www.carcrash.co.uk. Attendance of the small press half of the event was way up on last year with it getting busy straight away but most of the stall holders there agreed that there were more people looking than buying. Still it was a good couple of days with BritForce # 1 still selling - actually more than # 2 at the moment and it gave me the impetus I needed to start pushing BritForce to news sites and for reviews, hence the busy week.

Check out a couple of reviews
http://www.comicbitsonline.com/
http://www.comicsbulletin.com/reviews/127497865587520.htm

The second has some points to address which is only to be expected in my first outing and has a BIG spoiler so be warned but is over all positive giving BritForce 3.5 stars out of 5 and a "recommended" from CBO.

I had the stall by myself - something I wont be doing again as I didnt see any of the show at all and only got to talk to other exibitors when they came to my stand.

Well I already booked a table at BICs so onwards and upwards!

Cheers

Hi All, Well BritForce issue 2 arrived from the printers today and it looks ace! The printers have done a great job of it and the cover has come out really well.

I shall be launching it at Bristols comic con this weekend so look out for me. Also anyone who doesnt know I have created a Facebook profile in the name of "Brit Force" so come along and join me there

Cheers

Hi All
Well issue 2 is coming on apace, currently being script edited by Andy Winter of Moonface Press, ready for a release at the Small Press Expo in Bristol in May. I have finished the cover and am really pleased with it - was a lot of work but definitely worthwhile.

Came across a couple of problems, the first being that it features a TV personality who no longer works on the program involved though she did when I drew it...and the second being that Gordon Brown is Prime Minister and featured in the pages and by the convention he may no longer be. Much to be said for inventing people in these situations rather than drawing on real life I guess. Ah well it wont spoil peoples enjoyment of the book I am sure.

The strip I did for Violent by Factor Fiction Press will be in the next issue # 17 which is out in May, its just a 7 page piece in the magazine but I was pleased with it.

Cheers

Hi all

Got my orders through and have sent them to Diamond, I didn't get as many as I hoped but isn't that always the case! Many thanks to those UK comic shops that are supporting my endeavours it is much appreciated.

So BritForce # 1 should be in the shops soon but never fear if you cant find it I still have some I can send via mail order through the website. Or, as someone posed the question yesterday, if you dont have a paypal account just contact me and I will give you details for cheque payments.

Would be great to hear from more of you that have read the comic - so far I have some great feedback from the public.

Also I have started a Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/profile.php?ref=profile&id=100000436561768 come along and join me there.

Cheers

Hi All

On tenderhooks for orders at the moment as that will dictate BritForce's future...I have lettered almost all of issue 2 just one page to finish inking plus a cover so that is almost ready to go...if things work out and I get enough orders to make it worthwhile. I really hope so as I want to make a go of it.

Another couple of places are posting for advanced orders

Finished the work I was doing for Jay - it took way longer than it should have and I have no idea why but I am pleased with the finished work. As I say a different style to normal but fun and interesting as well as challenging to do.

Cheers
