New Worlds

It's a busy old summer at True Stories towers. I have a table at the International Comics Expo (ICE) in Birmingham on the 2nd August, where I'll be premiering new sci-fi series New Worlds. In addition I'll be selling Angel Nebula, Frontiers (and hopefully Dark Weather) trades, as well as Outcastes and a plethora of back issues.

New Worlds is an idea that's been percolating in my head for a couple of years, so it's great to finally make a start. It's the story of the remarkable life of child of the stars Eden Rose, whose travels takes her to wondrous and terrible new worlds. As I could only imagine it in full colour and each chapter varies in length, serialising it online seems the ideal solution. It's the first strip I've produced fully digitally (and in a short space of time), so it's proven a real learning experience. 

You can read the New Worlds prologue in full over at newworlds.co.nf. Future instalments will appear there following the completion of the long delayed final issue of Outcastes. There will be a few print copies of New Worlds which I'll be giving away at the ICE con with any purchase of one of the 3 book collections. Hope to see you there.
