The 2024 Annuals are out now!

A month later than usual but the Annuals for 2024 are on sale now. This year I have four pages of Kid Cops stories in The Dandy Annual 2024. The first time I've returned to these characters in years. 

The 112 page hardback features all new material from people such as Steve Bright, Laura Howell, Andy Fanton, Hunt Emerson, Mychailo Kazybrid and many more. Grab one now for Christmas!

Over in the Beano and Dandy "gift book", there's a selection of older material from various creators. You know you're getting old when some of your material turns up as a "classic" reprint and this year they're chosen the three part Keyhole Kate story I did ten years ago. In this adventure, Kate travels through time, and in one experience she meets the original Keyhole Kate from 1937!

Beano and Dandy: Spills 'n' Thrills and Belly Laughs is available now from online sellers such as WH Smith.

Nice to see you added some snow to the Kid Cops logo.

Annuals must be released earlier now. I always remember them in WH Smiths for the first week in September. The only thing that alleviated the horror of the return to school.

Every year I try to do a story set at Christmas or winter on at least one of my strips so I can add the traditional snow on the logo. I wish more comics creators did that. My page is the only one with a snow theme in the entire book. Hopefully that also means it'll be the one that'll resonate with the readers most when they read it at Christmas.
