LoLz Launched at the London Comic Festival

It was good to see the new all-ages comic LoLz launched at the London Comic Festival last weekend. The new 32 page full colour comic features a variety of comic strips by people such as Nigel Parkinson, Sonia Leong, Matylda McCormack-Sharp, Mike Powell, Sarak Millman and many more - including the return of Derek the Troll in an all new story by me.

 

In case you're not familiar with the character, I created Derek the Troll 40 years ago and he first appeared in Games Workshop's Warlock magazine before moving over to White Dwarf for a while. A few years ago I published a collection of those strips (now out of print - but may be back in print soon). Then in 2018 I revived Derek for a new full colour serial in the online comic Goof! Sadly the comic stopped before the serial was concluded but, all being well, I will complete and publish it in print next year.

For now though, you can read a new Derek the Troll story in LoLz No.1. How to obtain a copy? Simply go over to The77 website at this link...

LoLz is available with a choice of two covers. One by Matylda McCormack-Sharp, one by S.P. Zero.
