I produced this comic strip way back in the summer of 2009 shortly before starting the second year of my illustration degree. We were producing a comic to showcase the work of students on the graphic novels course and this was my submission.
The images have been on my website since its inception, but as Josie Long recently tweeted a link to this comic and panels from it have since featured in ‘picture rounds’ of the weekly Friday night Moz Army Quiz on Twitter, I thought I ought to post the full story behind it.
Click on the image to be taken to the comic and the full blog article I wrote about it at the time. It’s interesting to note that as recently as then I was a complete Photoshop novice and that I thought I might revisit the idea at a later date.
Prophetic words indeed as the remastered version may be viewed here.
How can I purchase this?!?
Thanks for asking! I’ve not made any prints of it yet but if people are interested then I may well do so. I’ll let you know if anything develops…
Hi there – it’s been a long wait, but if you’re still interested, this comic is finally available as a poster:
