In print this week...

There's a new issue of Toxic magazine out on Wednesday 19th October and it features another two page Team Toxic story from me entitled Game On! This time, the Team encounter an innocent-looking games machine in the shopping mall only to find that it mysteriously draws them into another dimension. 

The following day, on Thursday 20th October, Doctor Who Magazine No.505 is published, featuring 84 pages of features and strips including another Daft Dimension by me. As you can see from this close up of part of one panel, the Daft Daleks are the stars this month.

Here's the cover to look out for...

Also, as mentioned yesterday, the Beano Christmas Special is in the shops now; 68 full colour pages including a four page Bash Street Kids story written by Andy Fanton that I illustrated. Collect 'em all!

Bash Street!

I'm very proud to have drawn the four page Bash Street Kids story for the Beano Christmas Special that's on sale now. The script was written by Andy Fanton, and it was coloured by a D.C. Thomson colourist. All in all I think it turned out well and I'm very pleased with the result. 

Here's a couple of panels of my original art before it was lettered and coloured...


As there was some confusion last year I should explain that the Beano Christmas Special is a one-off special. There'll also be a Beano Christmas issue as part of the weekly run nearer to Christmas but this is an extra production, with 68 pages, on lavish paper, with card covers and free stickers inside. (There's also a Beano Annual of course, in the usual hardback format.)

The Beano Christmas Special makes an ideal stocking-stuffer for kids, so pick a copy up from WH Smith today. £4.99
