Will you be a good dog, or a bad dog? Be a good dog and go and grab yourself a copy of the excellent collection by Dave Shelton - it's out today. Fetch!
Just got my copy and it looks great - way better than it did in the DFC and that's not to say it looked bad - far from it, but the look, feel, design and actual print quality of this book is superb and definitely puts one in mind of the best of French Bande Dessinee albums..
Cheers for the plug, Garen (indeed plugs, here and elsewhere). DFB did indeed do a lovely job in the production of me book and I'm pleased and proud. Will Fickling was especially heroic in his attention to detail in the last mad days before the production deadline so much credit goes to him.
We're comic creators, writers and artists who are involved in The Phoenix (launching Jan 2012) and its predecessor, The DFC, the innovative British weekly comic published by David Fickling Books from May 2008 - Mar 2009. Here you can meet some of the very best British graphic storytellers, and this blog will share our news, art, comics, events and new projects. Enjoy!
I haven't seen it yet, but Leo Hartas just got his copy and he tells me the production is really top-notch. Can't wait!

ReplyDeleteCan't wait for "Spider Moon" and "Mezolith".
